MY BELOVED

~○19○~

Yo had kissed her. He did not like that his girl was crying over some stupid dead man.

Sang hyun was shocked and frozen. She did not expect to see such a sight. Yo had died three years ago. But now he is all alive and well right infront of her eyes (and not to mention he was kissing her).

As they parted from the kiss Yo looked at her tear stained doe eyes. Those hazel brown eyes he would always get lost in. He gently wiped her tears and held her cheeks and joined his forehead together with hers. She still cried silently. Sang hyun was not sure why she was crying now. Is it because Jun Oh died or because Yo came back alive.

Suddenly she backed away and looked at Jun Oh's body. The arrow that pierced his chest. She frowned at the design of it and came to a conclusion. Again she turned to Yo and and saw his had which held a bow.

"D-did you kill him?". Sang hyun's voice was barely a whisper. " I had to, because he was trying have you. And you belong to me" Yo replied. " Why did you do this Yo, you could've just stopped this wedding in another way. But this, you killed him, you just killed the only heir of the Shins. How could you still be so-...
Yo was getting impatient listening to her rambling about that dead idiot of a man. He handed his bow to one of his soldiers and held Sang Hyun's wrist and started dragging her away. The people gathered were looking at them shocked. Nobody thought a scene like this would happen. Sang hyun struggled in his hold and tried to break free and Yo had enough of this. So he pulled her in the front and held her waist and put her over his shoulder. Sang tried to escape but couldn't do anything and gave up. Yo couldn't understand as to why Sang hyun was struggling to come with him. And then the two had set off to the palace in Yo's horse.

After arriving at the place Sang Hyun noticed that everyone were bowing to him. Of course everyone would bow because he's a prince, but now there was a difference. Servants rushed to him aiding his needs. He simply ignored them and continued walking. Yo had called the head eunuch and told him to gather all of his brothers. The eunuch nodded and replied with " yes your majesty".

Sang hyun felt that something was wrong but she couldn't find out. Yo had entered the throne room and Sang Hyun expected to see king Hyejong but the throne was empty. And Yo had climbed up and sat in the throne, he still held her hand in his. "Yo what's going on ? Why are you sitting here, where's the king?" Sang hyun was questioning him constantly. Servants had given him tea and soon the eunuch appeared with all the Princes and the Princess. They all bowed and respect and choruses together "Greetings to the king" Sang Hyun's jaw dropped at their words. She couldn't believe anything. How was this even possible. Baek Ah and others were staring at Sang Hyun. It was her wedding today but why is she here and she had a worried and fearful look. Sang hyun and Baek Ah made eye contact and he just nodded his head assuring her that everything will be alright.

"So now everyone is here I would like to tell you that I will be marrying Sang Hyun very soon. You need to know who your future queen is, isn't it? Now that you've seen and heard this, I insist that you can all leave".

They had many questions and doubts but one look from Yo, they decided to leave and not to create unnecessary arguments.

Yo then took Sang Hyun to his room. He informed the eunuch to not disturb him for sometime. He then locked the door and was intensely staring at Sang Hyun. The girl was fiddling with her fingers and backed away when Yo approached her. Yo missed her alot. Everytime he tried to get close to her, something would happen and they would get separated. This happened twice and he could not let this happen again.

Yo pulled her into his arms and hugged her. He held her tightly, afraid that she would dissappear. "Sang Hyun ah , my darling, I missed you alot. All these years I only thought of you. Each and every moment i only thought about you. You don't have to worry about anything, now that I'm here everything will be alright. There's no one here to separate us anymore. I'm a king now, and very soon you'll be my queen, only mine".

Yo felt Sang Hyun nod against his chest. She didn't know what to say to him. She had so many questions but Sang hyun threw them aside. She loved alot and she still does.

Yo gently laid her on the bed and he too joined her. Yo then put one hand under her neck and the other around her waist and pulled her closer. He kissed her and Sang Hyun responded back quickly. They cuddled and very soon fell asleep in eachothers comforting presence.

In the palace somewhere, Choi Jimong was assessing the stars in the sky and was deep in thoughts. Just then the 3rd prince Wang So and the 13th prince Wang Baek Ah arrived.

Wang So asked what Jimong was thinking and he replied. " My prince, I was assessing the kings' star. All this time, king Jeongjong's star was flickering. But today it is shining brightly. And another aspect occurred. There is an another star that has appeared in the sky beside the kings star".

"What does that mean? Is there anything auspicious occurring in the future" questioned So again.

"King Jeongjong's flickering star showed that he would not be able to rule for long. But now, he's shining brightly which means he's going to rule for long. This happened because of the second star that appeared beside him. And that star belongs to none other than lady Sang hyun. I must say that the kings' life and the future of Goryeo lies in the hands of the lady. She is the only power that can change the tyrant king into a king who will be praised by all the people and to lead for a prosperous future of Goryeo".

"We have to talk to Sang Hyun about this". Said Baek Ah.

Few hours later Sang Hyun woke up to see Yo peacefully sleeping on her chest. She slowly got his head and hands off of him. He shuffled a bit, but then continued sleeping.And then she asked a servant for a hanbok as she was still wearing the wedding hanbok. It was heavy and itchy. Soon she changed into new ones and looked at Yo, who was still sleeping. So she quietly left his room. Upon walking a bit further, she met the 13th prince.

Both of them stared at eachother for sometime and then Baek Ah lunged forwards and hugged her. She too returned the hug. The two best friends hadn't seen eachother in a long time. They sat together and spoke for sometime.

" Sang Hyun ahh you need to know something......."
