“Momma, no please. I don’t want any of this!” Jimin screamed on the brink of tears, but clenches her fists to stop the flow. Her grip grew tighter until she felt her nails digging into the skin of her palm and her knuckles grew a brighter white. She knew arguing about her duties were futile when it comes down to the queen, but she had a will to change her mind. “Please?! I’ll abdicate the thrown to someone who wants it not because of my birth right!” As she spoke, her voice reverberates around the room full of exasperation with her facial expressions following in suit. Her eyes were twitching to change from her brown irises to her golden dragon ones, but she was taught, no, she was disciplined to hold in the urge of her dragon form.
The dark-haired woman froze in place and the sound of her mother’s hand coming into contact with the skin of her cheek echoed throughout her mother’s meeting quarters. She stood there stupefied unable to comprehend what to do next, not because the woman who birthed her laid a hand on her, but from the embarrassment of the cold woman’s actions in front of an audience - the royal court.
Her fingers brush over the hot portion of her cheek, clenching her teeth before the emotions take over and causing a drastic deed. The young royal slowly turns her gaze back to the frigid older woman who had no changing emotion from her unreadable features of the sudden action towards her daughter, nonetheless for an audience to first-hand witness.
The next few words were ones Jimin receives often by that woman she despised so dearly. “You are the next queen, Yoo Jimin.” Her mother’s voice was unwavering and monotonous as similar as her expression and affection towards her only daughter.
