My Ultimate Ambition

Prime minister Choi sat in his manor while overlooking the reports his spies sent him, it's been long since they got such confidential and key information and he looks very happy looking at it.

The smuggling business he's running has become fruitful as they have especially set up a black market where they buy and sell the goods.

"Tae hee, make preparations... l want to go out and survey the market"

The lady lurking behind the screen comes out and bows before her master while answering

"Yes Master, this servant understand".

__________

A man probably in his late thirties is sitting lazily while looking at the lady counting his money.

She's the best person for the job and also the love of his love. The business is thriving because she's managing both the income and the man in question.

The lazy man stood up from his seat and was about to smack her b.u.t.t when a sudden excited voice startled him.

"Boss, Boss!... I found the bastard that trashed our men and the bitch that accompanied him"

"What did you say?" he didn't quite download the info.

"I mean the bastard that we have been looking for, the one that almost disabled our men because of ordinary money pouch"

He understood now and gave out a creepy laugh, heavens are sure fair as earlier that morning he had been itching for a fight. Well, what else can a king of bandits and thieves itch for if not a reckless fight, dirty money and women?

"Show me the tiger's lair "he bellowed.

"Brothers!!! it's time for our revenge, today the bastard and whore that crippled our brothers will die together and the blood that was spilled shall be paid for because nothing goes for nothing... My brothers, are you with me on this revenge mission?"

Adrenaline pumping inside the body of this hot-blooded males gingered them up into action, while shouting yes to the voice that gave the speech, they are also picking up their clubs, machetes, swords, spears and whatever weapon they can lay their hands of.

The subjects of revenge not even knowing the danger coming to them are busy in a cozy embrace in each others arms.

I wish I could warn them that today they will come to remember it in pain, and that this day shall be etched on their hearts forever and ever.

Adjusting herself to be in a more comfortable position, Yoona smiled at the joke the young master told her .

Love is beautiful and believe it or not there is definitely love in the air among these two. They continued talking and laughing at every single and funny thing they said while holding each other.

The young master suddenly reacted as if he's been injected with a shot and blurted out something, looking at the manner he said it and the urgency of the tone you will know that he's been holding it in for a long time now.

"Yoona, l want to marry you immediately you turn fifteen...l will inform my parents and have the matchmakers fix the date of engagement"

The girl in question was so shocked that she couldn't utter a single word , her heart started racing with a gravity so strong she feared it might burst in her c.h.e.s.t, excited about the proposal and stammering she asked,

"Soo...Soon...are you fo...for rre ...real?"

He nodded and brought her closer to himself while declaring to heaven and earth.

"I swear that I wanted to say this sentence to you right from the moment I laid my eyes on you, l promise to weather any storm with you... love and cherish you and only you... protect you from every mortal and unforseen danger... l will even give up my life for you whenever your life is asked for"

For real now, the poor girl couldn't control her emotions and burst out crying, she cried so hard that Soon became confused on whether the tears are for joy or because of something else and she actually confirmed it the moment she asked that question

"Why me?... there are lots of noble and well-groomed ladies out there...why me?"

Seeing her pitiful state ,he didn't know what to say to assure her that she's the only one he will choose, even if there are girls more noble, more well-groomed, more beautiful, more talented or even more well-bred.

"Yoona, even if the whole world turns their back on me l will still choose you, you are my first and last love and my first-timer because everything l have experienced with you is my first time."

"Young master, l am a lowborn girl born from a slave woman, won't you be ashamed to have a mother-in-law who was a slave?"

"It is you I'm getting married to... your mother shall be my mother too, your brother shall be my brother and your father shall be my father... Yoona, do l look like a young man that attaches more importance to status?... what matters to me is the heart and from the interactions l have made with you in the past, l know your heart is pure and sincere"

Whimpering and slightly shaken from such a declaration of love , she pulled him slowly to herself and whispered "Thank you"

Immediately she said that, they heard a sarcastic voice behind them

"Aww!...in as much as I love 'love stories' , l hope you guys will permit me to cut short this particular love story?"

They turned to look at the person that said that almost at the same time and was shocked to see the man, how can they forget the king of thieves that almost made him lose an arm?

"Replying to you boss, l suggest you go look for someone else to play with, we are fine playing by ourselves" Soon replied with the same sarcasm in his sentence as the man earlier.

Angered by the fact that the two youngsters are ignoring him , he shouted

"Brothers... it's time to start the feast"

With that one sentence, all the men hiding in corners came out and Yoona for the first time in her life experienced panics, only Soon remained unfazed as he had noticed their presence the moment the boss spoke.

He had been distracted ,and because of his distraction he failed to detect the boss while he was coming ,but from that moment onwards he noticed that an aura from behind him was reeking with revenge hence he started planning an escape route in his head while maintaining a nonchalant attitude in order not to alarm them.

If there is one good thing he learnt from his brother then it is ' Never fight angry men alone and especially not with protecting a beauty beside you '

"God bless you brother for your advice but it seems my situation is much more perilous than whatever you will ever experience"

The men seeing that only the girl besides him was trembling got angry and started attacking ferociously.

The battle began and he went defensive in order to make sure only him would be hurt and Yoona would be spared , a log lying carelessly along the path they retreated to was picked up and used as a weapon he used in toning down the attack.

While they were busy fighting, a lone figure came out from it's hiding place and retreated to make a report to It's master.

At an inn, a middle-aged man was sipping his drink when his spy curtsied before him and came closer to whisper in his ears.

"What?...are you sure you are not mistaken?"

The person nodded and the man dropped some silver coins on the desk and bolted away to the place he received information about.

On reaching there, he witnessed a gruesome scene with everyone dripping with blood, the crown prince was holding a sword in his hands and was mercilessly cutting down men that wanted to go to a particular place.

Searching for the thing with his eyes, he wanted to know what he was protecting that he turned into an enraged beast and froze on the sight.

A very beautiful young girl whose face was one of a kind was looking scared from the corner and cried out painfully whenever he slashed down the hoodlums, he shuddered on the thought that the crown Prince has an interest in her and wondered why the girl was with him in the first place.

He shoved the thought aside and made to help him out with his guard when an evil thought crossed his line of thoughts, he grinned at himself and relaxed back.

Tae hee the spy was surprised that the master had not ordered her to join the fight , she made to join them with or without his order because she knows that the master has been preparing the young miss to be married to him when a cold hand held her back and shot her a look of " Behave"

Seeing her confused state and the eye looking at him as if asking why, he sighed and ordered her to run to the protectorate office and make a report that a group of gangsters are fighting along the port.

She nodded her head but was still confused on why the old master was behaving this way but knowing that her job is only to follow orders didn't refute or argue with him and dashed towards the office to make an anonymous report.

Once the protectorate office received the report, their men was gathered and they marched towards the area fully armed.

Immediately they arrived, they surrounded them and some almost puked with the gruesome scene welcoming their sight.

The thieves were disarmed and arrested while Soon surrendered on his own without any protest.

As for Yoona, the officers took her with them as a witness without bounding her with the rest of the men, but she was resisting and crying

"Please, he is bleeding... Young master Soon is bleeding, please bandage his wounds and I will go with willingly"

"Young master Soon?...it seems to me she doesn't know his real identity... this will be fun" The evil prime minister chuckled while hiding faraway from them in order not to be detected by the crown prince.

The officers helpless because the beauty was bawling her eyes out , obliged to her request and bandaged his wounds.

The said beauty kept howling "It is my fault...it is my fault... Young master Soon is hurt because of me"
