Chapter 21 - Lost in a castle - Chapter 21

Y/N's POV

I opened my eyes and spot myself in a dark room. There was no furniture nor anyone around, just an empty black room with no sound or anything. I looked around and suddenly I spotted a door. I quickly rushed to it, opened it, and entered a corridor.

The corridor looked luxury like from an expensive mansion, also strangely looked like the one I had in my nightmares. "Am I in another dream again?" I thought as I tried to pinch myself to wake up...but it didn't work. I attempted to blink repeatedly...yet still in the same place.

I was confused and lost and couldn't put puzzles together of how I even got in here in the first place. The only thing I remembered before appearing in here was seeing the ring wrapped in my finger as the 7 boys were nearby. I also remember their voices, especially Jungkook's as he caught me on his arms once I collapsed.

"The ring!" A sudden realization hit me. I looked at my hand and saw the same ring, with two colours, shining brightly and incredibly beautifully. I tried to take off the ring, but I couldn't...it was stuck on my finger even though I felt no pressure nor pain from it. I attempted one more time...still no use. This made me feel worried, and quite confused. "Well, I guess I have no choice other than explore this place" I thought as I started to walk around the corridor, "Maybe I'll manage to find the exit and get out of here..."

Suspiciously it was too quiet in here, the only thing I heard was my footsteps. As I continued walking, I spotted a large mirror nearby, hanging on the golden wall on the side. I came forward to it and I looked myself in it and noticed, that I looked different. Not by the face but by the outfit I wore...

I had a large beige dress with golden patterns all around it. My hair was very well made, and I had a small crown that was perfectly designed to my dress. On my feet I had simple ballet shoes, yet they had golden patterns too, perfectly fitted with my dress. I looked like a princess!

Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching. I quickly reacted to it and hid behind the nearest corner. As I peaked, I saw a pale man dressed in a very decent outfit like a prince yet without a crown. His dark locks were neatly swept back as the little piece of bangs were hanging on the side of his forehead.

As I looked closely, I recognized the face of this man. It was Seokjin! He looked paler than I seen him before, but that didn't stop me from going to him. "Jin!" I shouted his name, "I'm so glad that I'm not alone in this weird place." I added as I came face to face to him and hugged him tightly. I wrapped my arms around his waist, and thought I'd be safe with him....

Seokjin didn't seem to hug me back, likewise, seemed to be...confused. I backed away a little and called his name again, "Jin?"

He looked at me confusingly as if he never seen me before. He then pronounced, "Never expected, your majesty, to appear in our castle..."

He seemed serious when he said it, however soon a little smirk drew on his face. I was confused and unexpectedly felt a little bit uncomfortable, yet still decided to ask him, "What do you mean by 'your majesty'? Aren't we friends?"

Seokjin chuckled, "Friends?" He asked, "That's quite new to hear that from you" he added, and suddenly came closer to me, however I backed away.

"Jin, what's going on, why are you acting so weird?" I unsurely asked.

"Perhaps you're acting as if you don't know exactly who I am and where you are" he said as he began to walk closer again. As I was about to back away again, Seokjin grabbed my waist with his left arm to prevent me from going away any further. "Jin, what are you-" as I asked then suddenly stopped when I noticed his fangs showed from his teeth. Seokjin's smile widened, and his fangs became more visible. I tried to push him away, but his arms were too strong for me to escape from.

"Jin, let go of me!" I yelled at him, yet he didn't listen. His face met my neck as he was ready to bite it...but stopped after he heard someone else's voice, "Jin, what an earth you're doing?"

Seokjin stopped and followed his gaze to the direction where the voice came from.

A blonde, pale and confident man approached us with a disappointment on his face. He was dressed in a similar style as Seokjin's, however he also had a white small and short scarf wrapped around his neck, making him seem more innocent than Seokjin, yet he strangely gave me a bad vibe. He swept his hair back aggressively as he came face to face with Seokjin, and spoke, "Do you want to be a dead meat?"

I looked at them both in confusion, and suddenly my mouth decided to speak, "Jimin? Is that you?"

Jimin glanced at me, and our eyes met. His eyes turned yellow when he saw me, yet it took a few seconds when they turned back to dark brown, then he turned back to see Seokjin on front of him. I couldn't say anything more since a sudden worriedness built inside of me.

A confused Seokjin placed his arms behind his back as he stared deadly into the dissatisfied Jimin. "Look at that, you've ruined the whole fun again" he said.

"How blind is you?" Jimin sarcastically asked him, "Do you even know who she is?"

"Would've I attempt to try the taste of her blood if I didn't know who she was?" Seokjin reversed the question to Jimin as he chuckled a little.

His words scared me, and I slowly backed further away, yet not too far since I was scared that I could make a scene and become the victim that will get caught by them…

Jimin said, "Look at her hand" he pointed at my hand with his eye look.

I looked at my hand and noticed the two-coloured ring on my finger, shining brightly like two coloured diamonds, with little sparkles inside of the stone. "The ring..." I thought.

When Seokjin looked at my hand, his eyes widened, and his expression resulted on Jimin to smirk a little.

"While she still has that thing wrapped in her finger, we can't kill her" Jimin added.

"Kill?" I suddenly squeaked. Without thinking twice, I began to run. "What an earth is going on!" I thought, "I need to escape from this place as fast as I can!"

I heard fast footsteps approaching, "Oh shit!" I thought. I felt like they were catching up, so I tried to run even faster, even though I knew that they were much faster than me. I kept glancing back, without paying attention a lot to where I was running to, until I bumped into someone, and collapsed. I looked up and saw Jimin was already on front of me. "H-how..." I mumbled shockingly.

"You thought you can run away that easily, tch" Jimin spoke as he chuckled, then glanced at me as if he saw the most pathetic person that he has ever met.

"And what are you going to do? Kill me?" I yelled with confidence yet after I regretted asking that.

"Hm, that would be boring and quite not mannered to do so, your majesty" Jimin said with a quite sassy and sarcastic tone as he leaned down to me while I was still on the floor.

"Stop calling me 'your majesty', why do you even call me that!" I said as I quickly got up and backed away from him.

"Have you lost your memory? You're known as the strongest Queen in this world, from another kingdom" Seokjin joined, "Yet, quite strange for you to come to your enemy's palace."

"Enemies?..." I mumbled again, then spoke with a clearer voice, "No, I think there's some misunderstanding, I'm not the Queen, I'm just an average student."

Both Seokjin and Jimin laughed from me. This made me feel uneasy.

"Your jokes are hilarious, now shut up" Jimin said as his face quickly turned to emotionless. His eyes turned yellow, as he approached to me closer. I kept backing away until I reached Seokjin, he was right behind me. He grabbed both of my arms from behind and didn't let me go. Soon Jimin came closer to me and spoke in a sweet voice yet with an evil energy, "You're trapped with us, and there's no one who will save you..." he smirked as he gently ran a piece of my hair with his fingers, then finished by saying, "...your beautiful majesty."

"Let me go!" I yelled, suddenly felt helpless and angry at the same time. Until my ring suddenly started to shine brighter. Both guys backed away from me as soon as they saw the light from my ring. I looked at the accessory on my finger, it seemed the brightest that I ever seen. The two colours were glowing together, giving different energy from each. The blue gave the energy of a strong patience and calmness, yet the red colour gave the energy of intense emotions, anger, and danger. Nonetheless, the two colours together gave an extremely powerful aura, so powerful that it was difficult to describe it.

"So, you came to destroy us huh" Jimin's disappointed voice appeared. I tried to deny it, but he didn't let me. He said, "Jin, we must capture her".

Seokjin nodded, and the two guys were ready to attack me from both sides. I felt trapped!

Seokjin suddenly appeared beside me as if he used a teleportation, and his fangs showed again. I felt powerless and scared, until...the ring started to shine even brighter and pushed Seokjin on the side with its sudden light-blue thunder. Seokjin collapsed yet he didn't lose consciousness but seemed like he felt a little pain that distracted him from attacking me any further.

Jimin stopped as soon as he saw this incident and got angrier. His fangs grew as well as he was ready to attack me next, until someone's voice interrupted the scene, "That's enough!"

The voice sounded familiar. I turned around and spotted the 3rd pale man with a similar style as both Jimin and Seokjin had...I managed to recognize his face as soon as he swept his hair back gently while walking towards us. This was Namjoon, a tall and confident man, with fangs showing too yet he seemed much calmer and more controlled over his emotions compared to the other two guys.

"Are you here to join us?" Seokjin asked.

Namjoon ignored him and instead approached me closer. "You've made a huge mistake by coming in here" he said.

"I-" I tried to speak but was lost in words since I didn't know how to explain them that the ring is the thing that brought me, likewise, guys seemed to see me as someone else who wasn't me.

"Don't you feel tired your majesty?" Namjoon suddenly asked me with a sweeter voice, "You've being running a lot, haven't you?" He added as he began to circle me around gently.

I tried to speak yet didn't know what to say. He continued walking around until he stopped behind me and whispered into my ear, "I'm sure you're sleepy, so why don't you take some rest..."

Strangely, his words made me feel tired and sleepy. It felt like some sort of ASMR when he whispered. I felt like I was about to collapse yet tried to stay focused...

"Y/N, look at me" he said as soon as he came on front of me. I listened to him and looked into his eyes that turned light blue. They were so penetrating that it made me to look deeply into it, until...I felt weaker and weaker. "Is this some sort of hypnotize?" I thought.

Before I was able to say something, my eyes gently closed, and I collapsed as someone caught me in their arms...again.
