Chapter 41 RAIDEN: THE ALPHA KING OF LIGHTNING

FIRA'S POV

I ran as fast as I could, going to King Fire's room, but he was not there. I saw King Lightning, walking with the book in his hands. He was reading it.

I blocked his ways, causing a bang to our body. My body moved back a bit. The book fell on the ground.

"Fira, are you good?" He supported my arms to straighten my stand.

"I'm good, King Lightning." I scratched my forehead. "Can you do me a favor? Just for this day. Please, your majesty!"

"What favor?" His serious face was obvious.

Maybe that was his uniqueness. Compared to all of them, Raiden's look was always serious in so many aspects.

"Drag me to where you are going! Please, your majesty!" I rubbed my hands to please him.

I knew that like Zeohyrus and Pyro, he would do the kindness. I should use this opportunity to get to know him more. Eira had a lot to say to them. I needed proof that she was right. I believed that no matter what monsters they had in the body, there was a goodness inside them—like Zephyrus and Pyro, but Colden is an exception. I hate him so much.

"Please, your majesty!"

"What? Why?"

He bent his body down and grabbed the book.

I acted like I was dizzy. I touched my forehead and swayed a bit like a drunk person. "I'm not feeling well."

Crap. I hope my alibi should get him.

"I'm no business today. I usually go to the library. Do you want to go?"

"Yes! Yes! I love to read the books, the myths, the history of the Elemental Kingdom and solving problems in a paper. Will you teach me how to read a book in Latin?"

"Sure, Fira." Raiden never smiled. His face was just cold, but there were differences between him and Pyro.

Raiden's emotion is always serious, but he talks plenty unlike Pyro, his expression is cold and unreadable, but mouth is shut most of the time.

I am just observant, that is why I can see the contrast of their personality.

As we arrived in the library, I was so excited. If Raiden was not here, I could jump in happiness.

"King Lightning, what's your opinion about love?" Out of nowhere, I asked him.

He might know about what boys feel. I want to ask him about Janus. He sounds protected to me, but I do not know what he really feels for me. Or perhaps, I am the only one who is assuming?

"Raiden. That's my name," he corrected me like most of the kings said.

I am so lucky that I know their names. It is not yet a full moon, but they give their identity to me,that means I am trustworthy.

Crap! I'm thrilled.

"Honestly, I don't know. I've searched a lot of things about love, but I can't understand. Possibly, I've no feelings like that, that's why it seems foreign to me." He grabbed the book of Elemental Kingdom, opened it and flipped into the second page.

"You haven't felt love in your entire life?" My two eyebrows went up. I held a book; Baider by: AdiennaMichelle. The novel is about pure and sincere love. It might help me.

"Yup. What's the use of being in love? Or find true love? King Arealdo will be the ruler. He'll arrange us to the Queens of different kingdoms for power and unity."

"So sad!" My mouth formed a letter O.

"Yeah."

I never expected that their life would be difficult. I thought when you have power, you are the happiest werewolf in this world because you have everything in your hand: power, strength, ruler and other things that others do not have and they would never have.

Being a royal is a burden with rules, duties, and responsibilities. They do not have real happiness that is only seen and felt in the heart.

I thought being an Omega is one of the baddest things. I am wrong. I am lucky that I can choose who I will love.

Crap! Excluding the symbol. For sure, King Fire will remove this because we do not love each other. I am Omega, low rank. He is a king, higher rank. Emphasized, we will never love each other. We are just friends.

"You are feeling well, am I right?"

My eyes widened as our eyes met. "I'm sorry, Raiden."

"Ah, I know that. You just want to read books and learn. Don't worry. You can go here anytime. Just tell me." He gave me a small smile with the spark of pity.

"Thank you, your majesty." I started to read a book with a wide grin on my lips.

I love reading books and I will never regret going here with him. No one will report me to Saza because I am with King Lightning.

Good job, Fira!

"Anyway, did you already find your father?"

I looked up. I saw the worry in Raiden's eyes. "Pyro went to me and asked for help. I'm looking for him, too, but it seems like your father is hiding. He didn't want to know where he was."

"Perhaps." The sadness was obviously seen in my face. "I miss him so much."

He moved his hands and held my hand. "No overthink. You're gonna see him again."

I stared at his hand holding me. Maybe that was the way of comfort? Everything is different to King Lightning. He is smart. Mind comes first before anything.

He formed a small smile when he recognized that I was looking in his hands on me. "Holding hands is not only for couples. According to the book of friendship, it expresses comfort, pain release, safety, empathy and many more that is good for your psychological thinking."

I told you. King Lightning is different in the way he thinks. All of the things he does have meaning, from the book or any reference he read. I observed that for so long because I am going here at times, when I have time.

I nodded in acceptance to his statement. I studied the way his eyes looked at the book. He was not reading it. He had something in his mind.

"What are you thinking?"

"A woman."

My body was shocked as he answered me bluntly.

"Who's this lucky woman?"

"Shh." He put his index finger in his lips. "Lower your voice."

I moved closer to him and whispered. "Spell out."

He moved nearer to me and answered me in a low tone. "A luna. She's the most annoying woman I've ever met."

I chuckled as I viewed his cute expression. Somehow his features could reflect a bit of Zephyrus. Their mothers were different, but we could not change the fact that they were still brothers, that was why the ressemblance would be seen.

"It's new. You're irritated with a woman."

"Yeah." He shook his head and looked down again at the book. "Can I tell you a secret?"

"Yes, what's that?"

"We had an intimate scene." His voice was low and his face telling me that what he did was disbelieving his system.

"Crap!" I covered my mouth, my eyes were widening. I think I was blushing, too. It was a different level when a man—specifically the highness was opening something to me.

"I can't understand why I did that." He was shaking his head as if he could see the scene in his mind. "That's...annoying. She is annoying."

"You mean you two had you know in bed?" I bit my lips in embarrassment.

"You are blushing." He laughed so loud while looking at my face. I joined him to laugh, but the shyness was in me.
