The King Isn’t Dead (m) II myg

Pairing: Yoongi x oc (fem)

Rating: M

Word: 19.7k~ (my finger slipped?)

Genre: historical fic, smut, romance, fluff, angst, political upheaval shit

Summary: After the invasion and the King’s miraculous survival, the nation aims to secure stability and his position of power through the prospect of marriage and continuing the Min line. As a promise to your brother on the battlefield, the King promises to consider you as his potential wife - to love and to protect. Or maybe it’ll be the other way around?

Warnings: Language, non-descriptive violence, prior death, angst, unprotected sex (please dont), public sex (kind of), fluffy fucking, oral sex, fingering, handjobs, unfortunate but historically accurate depictions of misogyny

AN: Firstly, I did my own research on Joseon history, and I am by no means an expert on this subject. This is fiction, and I do not mean to offend anyone with my depiction of this era. Secondly, that upload of Yoongi practicing his sword choreography has taken up way too much of my mental space to not try this one out. Thirdly, I edited (mildly). And lastly, I just love this man so much and missed his little face. Keep healing, Baby.

The rumors of the King surviving the latest and decisive battle against the sea invaders spread through the country like wildfire. With a starting 20,000 men, less than a third returned home. Broken, scarred, exhausted, and traumatized. But victorious.

Some say the King rose back from the dead to fight off the invaders. Others say he turned into a tiger and bit off the opposing captain’s head. Some say he drank the enemies’ blood to revive himself, to finish the battle. But, you know better.

The battle left the King with a scar down his eye apparently. Upon his return, Traditionalists in court whispered behind his back that they should dethrone him. No royal should bare a scar, they reminded. The loyalists had them drowned for speaking such slander against their savior. The country would make an exception for this King.

As long as he wed promptly. He has a week to chose a bride that would provide the nation with a prince. Solidify the Min royal line.

And this is why you sit on his floor, head low, with two other possible wives for the King. You wait for examination in the finest robes your aunt could buy. Which one of you will become a Queen and the others concubines or gisaengs?

There is Seunghee who has an air of royalty, with her long straight hair and pale skin. She comes from a family of scholars who have advised the King’s courts for decades. She is slender and mild mannered.

And on your left, there is Arin. She too exudes elegance with her petite facial features and bright eyes. She comes from a wealthy family in the North that could easily barter treaties for foreign aid. She is poised and charming.

You don’t know how you ended up here.

Actually, you do. You just can’t believe it, because you’re not from an obscenely noble family with long ties to the throne. You originate from the South, adopted with your brother by your uncle and aunt. Your family was well off and built ships for the military. Your family is important but still a new name to the inner ring of palace.

In an alternate reality, where the recent attack had not occurred, you would never have ended up here. Your brother would not have gone to war, would not have been drafted in the hidden division that prevented the full on invasion on Busan bay. Your brother would never be stationed in the fleet next to the King — he would never have seen the sneak attack on his Majesty, from the side. He would never had acted so courageously by jumping in front of the King, saving his Grace from death. Your brother would’ve survived, and his last dying wish wouldn’t be the safety of his sister.

You’re only here because your brother is dead.

This man lives and breathes Geralt. He is to Geralt as Ryan Reynolds is to Deadpool. You expect me to watch someone else play witcher’s Deadpool? I don’t think so.
