Chapter 157 THAT’S MY GIRL

PYRO’S POV

When we reached the boundaries of the Elemental Kingdom and the human world. I made flames so they could not follow us. I ran and ran as quickly as I could.

“I can’t一” Fira collapsed.

I immediately stopped, laid her on the grass, and then changed into a human form. “Fira! Dearest!” I tapped her cheek gently. “Please be with me! Dearest!” I was panicking. That was not my attitude, but when it came to her, I was so vulnerable. I held her wrist. My world stopped rotating when there was no pulse beating. The tears in my eyes instantly flow down my face. “Fira!”

I bit my lips and looked at the dark sky. “Why are you always taking her away from me! I’m not a bad person! But why are you giving me heartbreaking suffering!” I looked won on her, viewing her beautiful features despite of his breathless body. I closed my eyes tightly, letting all the liquid in my face be visible. “If you died, I felt like I died as well. You’re my life, my strength, my world. I will do everything. Everything to save you.”

I did the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, chest compression, and all the life saving action, but nothing happened. So I only had one choice left. I shut my eyes. When I opened it, the fire was burning inside its iris. The flames were surrounding my body. I held the hand of Fira. I hugged her so tight afterward. I blew a loud exhaled and said.

“I, Pyro Aiker, the Alpha King of Fire is giving all I have; my power, the element of fire, and my wolf as an offer to you in exchange of the life of this woman, Fira Hayes, the love of my life. Please grant my proposal!”

“I hate you!” Ember was folding her hand under her chest. She sat on the bench while having a sharp pouting lip.

“I love you.” I gave her a small smile. I sat next to her and touched her head. She just removed it. “Like what I always say to you, I won’t replace your Papa Janus. He stays as your Papa, but even if your lips are sharp and you said no, you can’t change the fact that you’re a child of the King Fire. And your biological father loves you so so much!”

She avoided talking even though, she wanted to. The silence was between us until I talked again. "You are the most wonderful thing that has ever occurred to me."

“Do you really love Mama?” Her sharp look was threatening me to say the truth, causing me to chuckle.

“You’ll be created if I don’t love her.”

“What does that mean?”

I scratched the peak of my nose. I tried to touch her again. Sigh of relief. She let me. I placed her on my lap and encircled my arms in her small body. “Do you want me to tell you our story?”

She nodded her head, the excitement was in her expression. “Yes, please.”

“I met her in the darkest part of her life. Your grandmother died because of hunters. They were about to hit your mother when I came.”

“Like a hero?” The amusement was in her small adorable eyes.

“Yes, like a hero. I had no intention to save her, but when our eyes met, I felt…” I grasped her small hand and settled it in my chest. “I felt my heart beating so fast and loud.”

“Wow! Did you fall in love with my poor Mama? From the moment you saw her?” The excitement never went in her voice.

“Yeah, maybe that's what they called it.”

“Then?” Her full attention was on me. I was not the kind of man who was telling plenty of words, but when it came to Ember, I had much energy to say anything that she wanted to know.

I pulled the information in my head together to remind me what had exactly happened. “Then I hit the hunter like this, haya!” I tickled her waist and her tiny chuckle let out from her mouth. I was doing that every time I was told that I was punching and kicking the hunters.

“Then you saved her? The start of your love story is fantastic!”

“Definitely. I and your mother are mates. No matter what we’ve been through. We’re only for each other. No wonder, she came back to the Elemental Kingdom.” I kissed the top of his head. My arms compactly glued her to my body. “I can’t be your Papa Janus, but I can be Papa Pyro.” My voice was full of energy. “When grew up, you’ll comprehend every little thing.”

“I understand, but why did Mama marry Papa Janus?”

My forehead formed a wrinkle. She was really a smart kid. Other kids her age would not ask that question.

“She has a reason. You can ask her by yourself?”

“Okay!” She climbed up on my body, placed her face on my neck, and hugged her hands on me.

“Are you going me as your father?”

“I never decline you, King Fire. I just can’t move on with the death of my Papa Janus.”

See? She was just four years old, but when she spoke, she was like thirty.

When I gazed at her again, she was sleeping. I walked to the hallway of the hospital. I was confused why people were staring at me? I realized I was wearing a king warrior garment that was not suitable for their clothes. Ember was also wearing a blue royal gown.

“He’s freaking hot!”

“Is that his daughter?”

“Let’s get his name or Facebook or any social media account!”

There was a group of teenagers who were talking about me. They rushed towards me, blocked my way, and then bathe me with different questions.

“ Hi, what's your name?”

“Can I have your Instagram account?”

What the damn is Instagram?

I was worrying when they held my arms. They could wake up my daughter.

“Hey!” I smiled when I saw Fira in their backs. She went towards me and removed those hands of the teenagers. “Back off. Didn’t you see we already have a child?”

I almost laughed when she fought them with sharp eyes. They left us with annoyance on their faces.

“That’s my girl.” I leaned my arm on the shoulder of Fira.
