Mon Amour

Kim Taehyung FF

Title- Mon Amour

In the courtroom, there stood a huge King's throne, studded with gold jewels and padded red velvet sittings. Two men standing behind the throne, guarding their King as he walks inside the hall with his sturdy steps. His name is Kim Taehyung.

His long-maroon velvet robe brushing the marble floors of the hall, his silvery metal sword clanked in its scabbard as he got ready to sit on his throne. "Your Majesty," his minister uttered, and the King looked fiercely at him.

"my lord, this kid was again caught stealing from our yard.. I did warn him multiple times, but this kid refused to understand, so I present him in the court" he continued.

The King nodded, rubbing his temples, and with his deep-hoarse voice asked the young boy, "why do you steal?" as the boy stood gape down to his bare feet, his clothes were worn out and he looked miserable.

"To eat, your Majesty," the boy stuttered, rubbing his toe on his other toe, scratching his fingers on the knuckles, clearly the boy was terrified and nervous. "Come here.." the King called him gently, gazing up at him walking briskly towards the King.

The King stood up, lifted the poor boy in his arms and let him sit on his lap, supporting his petite, boney back with his strong arms, and asked him warmly, "what do you like to eat, young men?" "food, my lord" the boy stammered, smiling faintly.

Hearing this King's heart broke into pieces, his eyes became teary as he called his minister to take the boy and feed him as much he wanted to eat.

Just then the boy nodded his head and said, "I want food for my little sister, she's hungry.." his crystal stutters shook the King's core and he felt ashamed.

The guards took the poor boy away from the King and gave him some food for his sister and for him, witnessing this the King felt upset and wondered why these little kids aren't feeded properly, he was astonished and concerned about his people.

This day he decided to have a feast regularly, where all the poor and needy kids will be invited in his dine room to have lunch with the King. How kind and thoughtful of him. This is what exactly a king does, taking care of his people, serving and supporting them.

Many days later

Today Kim Taehyung got ready for horse riding in the woods, he had some free time so he decided to stroll between these sere, beautiful mountains and the dense forests.

"Your Majesty, we shall head back, it's getting a bit darker," his men informed.

"I want to stay here for a few more minutes, I am going to the riverside..alone..give me some privacy.." Taehyung ordered, and rode near the river. Tying his horse beside the huge tall trees as he walked closer to the shore.

Engulfing the cold-autumn breeze, smelling the sweet, fresh fragrance of the blossomed flowers, his arms wide open. The sound of the river echoed his ear, as he slipped into the trance, enjoying every bit of it.

Suddenly he felt someone sobbing, he opened his eyes, followed the voice and saw a girl wearing peach-white frock, hugging her knees and crying. "Do you need help, lady?" Kim Taehyung asked softly.

"Who are you, leave me alone.." the girl muttered, still crying, "why are you crying?" Taehyung took a step closer to her. The girl quickly stood up, turned her face, glaring at him with her sharp-rounded eyes.

Kim Taehyung felt his heart pacing faster, he never saw such a pretty face before in his life, those long curled hair falling on her back, a few locks of hair brushing her rose-tinted cheeks and her big-rounded eyes awestrucked him.

"I found this squirrel dead, I used to come here and play with it, but today it was dead..and I feel awful..ugh..such a pure soul.." she said, crying and wiping her tears.

"Oh! I am really sorry for your loss.." he chuckled a bit.

"Heartless you are, I feel bad for the small creature and you are laughing?" she frowned at him, "No-No.. I mean, the way you were crying I thought..never mind..I am sorry" Taehyung apologized.

She hurriedly buried the squirele, placing a small-plucked flower on it, and folded her hands to pray for the parting soul. Taehyung stood near her watching her kind-gentle heart, mesmerized by her beauty he only smiled.

"If I may ask, what's your good name?" Taehyung smiled at her, "My name is Y/N..and yours?" she replied, slightly blushing.

"I am Kim Taehyung..the..Ki-," he stopped as he realized he was getting late, and without speaking further he rushed to his horse, leaving you bemused by his abrupt action.

"Do you often come to this place?" Taehyung asked while climbing his horse, and you nodded, he smiled, waving you goodbye, "See you tomorrow then..Y/N.." he chuckled.

Y/N's POV

*he looked royal, probably one of the King's men, do all the guards of the King look so handsome? He was indeed a gentleman, helped me to bury my little friend too, I wish to meet him soon..*

"Princess, Y/N..where are you? Come on, we're getting late...we need to head back to the palace" your maid called your name, and you rushed back to the palace.

"This time, I won't help you if your father asked me where you were, I will tell him.." she said sternly, "Oh! Please no..you know I don't like to stay in my room all the time" you pouted and she couldn't help but laugh.

"I lost my little friend today, and you know a gentleman helped me bury it" you told her about Kim Taehyung as she smiled and you went back to your palace.

Time skips

Kim Taehyung lying on his bed, thinking about you, smiling and blushing. He was impressed by seeing your kind-heart, how pure it is that you cried for the death of a small animal.

He decided to visit that river again tomorrow, as he wished to continue his friendship with you. "I hope to see you there, have a good night's sleep, Miss Y/N.." he whispered, as he slipped into his slumber.

Several weeks later

Kim Taehyung and Y/N regularly met each other at the same spot and time. Taehyung hid his identity to see if this girl adores him as a normal guy and just to test her. Same Y/N did as you too wanted to see his true nature.

"So? I've heard, the king is really ruthless and wicked, is it?" You whispered loudly to him and he was shocked to hear such a question.

"Who told you that he is bad?" He stuttered skeptically, "I heard people saying it, so I asked" you responded, shrugging your shoulders.

"Don't always believe what you hear or see, things aren't the way they are portrayed usually" he spoke disappointedly and you nodded feeling that you might have spoken something awful.

"So, how's he actually?" You asked again and he smiled, "Umm.. he is kind, he's good looking and brave... yeah" Taehyung replied blushing after doing self praising.

"Is he married?" you muttered skeptically and Taehyung gazed at you baffled by your sudden question. "Why are you so interested in him? Are you willing to marry him?" He chuckled darkly, smirking at you.

You blushed a bit, bit your lips nervously and stuttered faintly, "The princess of Ederville is fixed with him, and the princess is my good friend.. so I asked" you lied, covering the truth and yes your father fixed your marriage with him.

Taehyung was astounded by the information, quickly stood up, and glared at her with utter confusion, "What? The King is fixed with your princess? When did this happen?" "I don't know, it's just that I was informed yesterday.. your king didn't tell you? you expressed.

"I have to go, I will see you tomorrow," He rushed towards his horse, immediately climbed it and rode away. You were again left perplexed, wondering why he never tells you everything.

Few Hours later

"Your Majesty" the guard bowed down at him, as he walked infuriated in the courtroom, yelling his Minister's name. He stood in front of, bowing!

"My lord! What is it that you're stressing about?" He spoke softly, "I am fixed with the princess of Ederville? When did this happen? And why haven't I been informed yet?" Taehyung hollored

"I was about to tell you, my Lord, but I see you were already gone out in the morning. I was waiting for you to return" he informed "Tell the King that I won't marry his daughter," Taehyung yelled, rejecting the marriage proposal.

"May I know the reason, my lord?" His minister voiced, still bowing down. "I do not love her, that's the reason" Taehyung replied sternly.

"My Lord, Kings never marry out of love, you need to accept this proposal as this is good for our Kingdom, and he is a wealthy man" he uttered.

"I SAID! No! I will not marry her..." Taehyung responded angrily. "On what basis, you are rejecting the princess?" The minister asked.

"It is that, I do not know her," Taehyung muttered loudly, he was furious about the marriage proposal and angrier that his agreement or permission wasn't asked before accepting the invitation.

"I have the solution for that, I may have a portrait of her, look at it and then decide.." the minister offered but Taehyung shook his head and went inside his room.

"Your Majesty, listen to me...ah!" The minister followed him but he was stopped by the slamming of a door. "I guess, I have to work a little hard to convince him..wonderful" the minister whispered.

Few days later

The Minister tried to placate the King for marriage, but he denied all his requests, all his attempts to woo his Majesty failed, Kim Taehyung wasn't ready to see the portrait of the princess. "Do not hover me, I need space, I am going out.." He said angrily, wearing his black velvet robe and left the palace.

Taehyung rode to the riverside where he often met Y/N, but today you didn't show up. He waited for hours, hoping to meet you soon, alas! All in vain. "Why didn't she come today? I hope she's not ill.." Taehyung murmured to himself.

Ederville Palace

"Father! I won't marry him..please hear me out.." you voiced, your father was sitting in his study, placing an official notary stamp on some of the documents. "Are you listening to me?" you asked with your teary eyes.

He peeped through his half rim round glasses that hung on his nose, his glares made you starlet as you stopped uttering any further. "What choices do you have? You are a princess and you would marry a prince or a king" he uttered.

"But I love someone else.." you stuttered, while looking down at your feet, he got up from his chair, walked straight at you and grunted, "who are you talking about?"

"His name is Taehyung, he works under the King you've fixed me with.." you stammered, while your father's eyes glazed with disappointment. "A princess marries a king's men? No- Never...I won't allow you"

"But, he is a good man, father!" you expressed and he rejected all your pleadings. He was right though, how can a princess marry and live with the king's men or guard.

Princesses or Princes are bound to be wedded with the royal family and not a common man. No other options left, you got ready unwillingly to marry the king and be his loyal-royal wedded wife, the Queen of Ederville Kingdom.

Several days passed, Taehyung and you did not meet, he came daily to see you, he became anxious for you, worst scenario that he didn't even know where you'd live. He wanted to express his feelings for you but wasn't able to find you.

"Mon Amour! Where are you?" he muttered, scanning the nearby riverside, suddenly, a small kid came running towards him and handed the letter. "Hey, who-who are you?" he asked but the kid was in a hurry.

Taehyung was confused after seeing the letter, he swiftly opened the envelope and read out loudly, it was your letter saying that you've been fixed with someone and now you won't be able to meet him.

"Goodbye, Taehyung, it was my pleasure to meet you, I hope you will be in good health and wish you all the happiness, -Y/N". He cried, feeling heavy-hearted and upset after reading the goodbye letter.

Taehyung wanted to find you and see you for the last time but was unaware of your whereabouts. No choice left, he headed back to his palace and was devastated that now he will never meet his lover, MON AMOUR, Y/N..

"Tell them that I am ready to marry his daughter" Taehyung sighed, his eyes gleaming with tears, feeling a punch in his chest,while recalling about the letter. The minister nodded cheerfully and made arrangements for the wedding.

Here you also cried your heart out, sitting next to the altar, praying for your lover's health and happiness. The burden overwhelmed you, feeling upset that you weren't able to express your feelings with Taehyung.

Two weeks later

"Your Majesty, we need to paint a portrait of yours for the pamphlet and posters of the wedding announcements. Please be ready, the painter is on his way" the minister informed and Taehyung nodded, showing no interest.

All the wedding formalities he did with disinterest, unwillingly, but he did not have a choice, he had to do it, signing deep frustrated exhales as he walked inside the painter's chamber and got ready for the portrait.

"My lord, it would be great if you just stand erect, your head looking to the other side and your hands on your sword" the painter directed the King respectfully and Taehyung did what he was told.

Half of the painting was almost finished, Taehyung ordered his maids to bring some hot cups of tea for the painter as well as for himself. He was extremely impressed by the painter, his art was beyond the world, a true creative painter.

While drinking the tea, he was admiring his other paintings, strolling inside his chamber, gawking and appreciating every detail that the painter painted. "These are absolutely beautiful," Taehyung praised while sipping the tea.

Suddenly the tea spilled on his robe, staining it and all the maids hurried to clean it, just then he took a white cloth that was covering another painting and started wiping the stain. His eyes fell on the painting that was covered with the white cloth and he was astonished to see the portrait.

"Who-whose painting is this?" He asked bemusedly as the painter rushed towards him, "Your Majesty, she's the Princess of Ederville" "The Princess of Ederville? Are you certain?" Taehyung asked and the painter nodded.

Taehyung was enthralled by knowing the fact that y/n was the princess he was getting married to, he quickly lifted the painter and swirled him around, and the painter was shocked by his sudden-abrupt behavior.

"My Lord-My lord..ugh..." the painter stuttered, Taehyung put him down, and excitedly kissed him on the cheeks, everyone in the chamber got baffled by his actions. The minister stood gawking at him with confused gaze, wondering what happened to the KING.

"Fix me for the meeting with the princess.." Taehyung ordered his minister, "But, My Lord, meeting before the wedding would be inappropriate.." He suggested but Taehyung smiled and shook his head, denying his advice.

"Got it, Your Majesty," the minister exhaled deeply out of frustration. Taehyung was happy to learn the fact that he was getting married to his MON AMOUR only and that was you. He realized that all this time you too hid your true identity and you were the Princess of Ederville.

Time skips

The minister sent the invitation to the Ederville for meeting the Princess as it was the King's orders and no one dared to deny it. Your father gladly agreed to the meeting but requested the King to see his daughter through a veil and not directly.

The princess of Ederville, Y/N was escorted to the palace where you got ready to meet the King. Pacing around in your ball gown, the lace of the gown brushing the marble floor, you were indeed nervous to see him.

You were coiled up in your thoughts just then you heard a huge door sprung open and sturdy footsteps walking in your direction. At first you were slightly confused to see Taehyung dressed up royal and looked fancy, but just then one of his guards bowed down to him and then you realized he was the KING, King Kim Taehyung.

"Taehyung-aah?" you whispered astonishingly, your eyebrows creased as he gazed at you through the long-white-net-veil.

"Y/N..Mon Amour.." he was about to open the veil in excitement but you stopped him, smiling wide at him. "You-You..are the King?" you asked, widening your eyes, and he smiled cheerfully, nodding.

His eyes filled with tears as well pure love, he just wanted to lift you in his arms and kiss as if there's no tomorrow. You blushed seeing your lover standing in front of you, expressing his feelings with his gleaming eyes and bright smile.

"I love you, Taehyung.." you uttered, "Now, I want to ask, if you are ready to get married to me?" Taehyung stuturred, seeking your permission and you nodded.

"Yes! I will marry you.." you replied, trying to reach his hand, he gently took your hand in between his palm, caressing it gently and promising to love you till eternity.

"I love you, Y/N..be my queen and serve my people along with me.." his voice echoed the whole ball room while you stood there gazing at him. "I will see you at the altar, My Queen.." he uttered, bowed down to you and waved you goodbye.

The Wedding day

All the maids and your helpers, dressed you with a ivory-silver tinged wedding gown, it had long umbrella sleeves. Peach flowers stitched on the waistband of the gown and the veil paired perfectly with your diamond studded hair pin.

You had a smooth, natural and minimal makeup on your face that enhanced your beauty more, you wore a white-silver stone studded bellies that matched well with your wedding dress.

You looked astonishingly beautiful

You got ready to go outside and face the King, Kim Taehyung at the altar, you were all dressed up, headed towards the main hall, walking in your fancy heels and others lifting your veil, walking side to side.

Everyone present in the wedding hall gawked at you as you walked near the altar, you looked up and saw Taehyung waiting for you, smiling at you. Looking at him standing there, made your heart skip a beat, and your cheeks turned red, you took a deep breath and moved towards him.

Taehyung opened his hand to welcome you at the altar as you gracefully, bowing at him, took his hand and walked on the altar, smiling brightly. The orchestra played the finest music, the wedding bells resonating the whole wedding hall. Indeed you were enchanted by the atmosphere and a bit nervous.

He was continuously gazing at you with pure adoration, all his desire filled with love flashed his eyes, sparkling as he watched you standing, hand in hand with him. Your face was partly visible under the veil, your eyes dancing with his eyes.

And Taehyung waited eagerly to open the veil and plant kisses on your lips, you were shy, staring at him with your big-rounded eyes.

"Your Majesty, I would humbly ask you to take Miss Y/N's hand and repeat after me" the officiant requested. He did what he was asked to do, taking your hand gently in his hand.

"Do you take Miss Y/N as your wedded Queen of the Kingdom, My Lord" the officiant uttered, "I do.." Taehyung replied, nodding his head and looking at you. The officiant asked you the same question and you answered him, "I do" blushing and giggling.

"Now, you may kiss the bride.." the officiant permitted, and he quickly lifted your veil, cupped your face and planted a soft- gentle peck on your lips. You heard people applauding and the orchestra playing the ball music.

You were married to him, and now you were the queen of his kingdom..
