Chapter 67 FLYING OF ARROW

PYRO'S POV

I peeked on Fira and Raiden. Fira seemed to enjoy talking with him. The plan was working so fine. I requested Raiden to look after her because I would kick the bastard out of our way. Whoever wanted to make Fira and I separate, I would be their unforgettable nightmare.

I prepared myself while walking in the hallway. I would be meeting Janus at the Riverside and we would have a challenge.

Good luck to him. I might not kill him, but he will suffer to death.

A smirk formed on my lips as I glimpsed Janus standing at the cliff, watching the falls. He was waiting for me.

I have no idea. Why am I doing this? I mean Fira is already my mate, but I feel like threatening this man to stay away from her.

She is mine. No one will touch her the same as I do.

"Greetings." I said as I wanted to make him acknowledge my presence.

"Should I need to bow, King Fire?" Janus' eyebrows went up. "Should I?" The sarcasm was on his face.

He is mad at me. So do I.

"No. I hate them bowing to me, but I don't have a choice." I stand straight in front of him, showing my broad chest and shoulders. I was trying to calm myself at least a bit due to my power. Lately, when I was with Fira I could relax myself and ended up not burning. I really liked her hands on me, caressing, hugging, and wrapping. I just did not want another man to touch her in any way.

"The best man wins." Janus clenched his fist.

"The best man wins," I repeated as I positioned myself in thirty degrees, folded my knee and showed him my closed fist, preparing the fight. He did the same thing.

"If I win, you'll give Fira to me." Janus said his condition. This was the only reason why we were going to have a man to man battle.

"If I win, you'll go away and not gonna disturb us." I started to jump and gave him a flying punch. I was stunned by his dodge, he was fast like Alpha King of Lightning.

The curiosity filled my chest. He was just a miner. I heard Raiden talking to Hali that the miner was not a trained fighter. They were just trained to use the shovel, find the golds and diamonds, but not in battle.

Is there a secret organisation that teaches the low ranks to fight? If there are any, who is their leader?

I dodged in the right as Janus kicked me, and his feet hit on the ground. I moved down, my knee folded as I punched his belly, causing him to step backward. Then I wrapped my arms on his waist and overthrew him. He stood up immediately as I gestured stomping on him. He dodged all of my hits. I got annoyed because I never encountered anyone who had the same capability as me, the good dodger.

Now I knew how it felt to be dodge by someone.

"Curious, your majesty?" Janus' eyes glued on me as he stood manly.

"How did you learn the defenses?" My forehead was knitted. A minute passed, but we had no bruises, no hit from each other because we were both diving left and right to avoid the strikes of one another.

"We are just rivals about Fira. I know all your decisions are for her. So do I…" Janus' face showed me how serious he was at this moment. "I want to protect myself from the abusive and cruel royals—protect Fira, too. I'm part of secret organizations of the low born."

My mouth was closed, I had no words to say. I was not against to that or vanquished their association, it made me happy instead.

"If you're low born, you can experience the cruelty of the world." Janus' eyes had a spark of sadness like how I saw from Fira's eyes when she was talking about the status of their life.

Is there an equality treatment between them?

My eyes widened as he moved faster, he leaped and then his fist landed on my cheek. He got one point from that. I took my revenge by kicking his belly. He immediately took back my kick by punching my chest. We both exchanged punches and kicks.

Admittedly, I found myself fighting on him because it had a thrill. I could compare his strength on Colden when he was in the mood to train and the speed was like Raiden. They trained him professionally or maybe he was rehearsing his entire life.

We were in the middle of fighting when Janus moved down with his face facing the ground. "Get down, King Fire!"

I laid down on the ground with my ventral facing the ground. The arrow flew towards us. There were opponents in our surroundings, hiding behind the trees. I had no idea who their target was, but definitely it was me because all of their hits went towards me.

Suddenly, Janus stood up and covered me. I had no idea why he was protecting me. "Move away! I can handle this—" I stopped talking as I saw that he had three arrows on his back, burying his skin.

I gritted my teeth. I looked around as I was finding who the heck was flying an arrow! I saw nothing, they were well hidden in their places.

"Move away." I commanded to Janus again.

"No, you'll—" He coughed with blood which made me alarm. "You'll die if they hit you with an arrow. It's poisonous."

I stared at his face for so long. It was obvious that he had difficulties in breathing. The stab sensation filled my chest as I observed his expression, it was hurting him.

I don't want someone to die because of me again even if he is my rival.

"Why are you saving me?" I held his shoulder as he fell.

"Because I know...you can protect Fira more than I." He collapsed on my shoulder.

"Janus!" I saw the arrow buried again on his back. I brought him down. I looked around and just using my eyes, I burned the trees where they were hiding.

I love nature so much, but I would sacrifice them now for the sake of killing those bastards.

The hitting of an arrow in the air suddenly disappeared, no signs that I was killed somebody. They all escaped. I almost cursed at the knowledge that they ran away from me.

I gazed down at Janus who was now lying. I tapped his cheek. "Wake up!" I shook his shoulder. "Open your eyes, Bastard!"

He had no response.

Chapter 68

I'M MAD

FIRA'S POV

"Did you see Janus?" I was looking for him for about thirty minutes in the mining area. I asked everyone, but no one knew where he was. It has been two days since their encounter with Pyro and I had no idea if they continued the fight.

King Fire was in his room for almost a whole day and then he would go out sometimes, where I had no clue where he was going. He had not talked to me either which made me curious.

What's happening?

I looked down on the bread and coffee that was in my hand. I wanted to bring these to him, but I could not find him. Maybe Pyro knew where he was, but the problem was he did not speak to me.

My knee trembled as I saw Carter from a distance. He was staring at me with a grin on his lips. I gulped my saliva as the fear crawled all over my body. I had no one here, if he caught me again, I might not escape from him so I walked faster, going back to the Elemental Kingdom. He was following me, causing my body to produce cold sweat to my face. My hands were shaking, that was why the bread and cup of coffee quake. I was managing my hand to stay calm, but no matter what I did, it was still trembling.

I was looking at my back as my step was faster. Carter was still on my back, walking faster.

I will kick you, Pervert! If you still harm me!

Janus and Cass were the only people who I told about what Carter did to me. Since Janus was not around, who would save me?

I moved my feet even triple just to have a long distance between us. When he was about to catch me, I bumped into someone's chest. When I looked up to know who he was, my fear disappeared.

"Pyro…" I did not care if some of the guards or even Carter saw me. The bread and cup of coffee fell into the ground. Good thing that the cup was steel so it would not break. I raised my arms and embraced his waist. I tightened my hug and buried my face on his shoulder. I did not care if he felt my body trembling.

I almost cried, but I was managing myself not to. Carter's did to me cause a traumatic experience.

I felt that he hugged me back, he stroked my hair in the most gentle way. "Did you miss me?"

My body froze as I realized that I was not just hugging him because of the fear, but also lacking in his appearance for two days.

I moved my head in an upright direction, my face was still on his chest. I was just waiting for myself to calm before I stepped backward and removed my body to him.

"King Fire, King Arealdo is coming!" I heard the warning of Zephyrus that was why I immediately moved away from him. I

brought down my knee to the ground and grabbed the cup and bread.

"Hi, Father! Have a good day!" Zephyrus was having a great smile on his face while greeting his father.

When King Arealdo's eyes touched mine, I bowed. "Good morning, King Arealdo." I was used to not getting a response from him. He was usually ignoring the low born, he would just see us if he wanted to order or demand something.

"Greetings, Father." Pyro stood straightly while staring at his father, he had a cold expression on his face.

"Greetings." King Arealdo smiled at Pyro, but not to Zephyrus. I was thinking if Pyro was also his favorite?

King Arealdo walked towards Pyro, wrapped his one arm and tapped his back. "I heard that you have great training, stronger than before."

Pyro glimpsed me as if he was saying to move away from us. I just bowed on him before I moved faster. I was about to turn my back, but I gazed at him one more time. His father was saying something to him while the poor Zephyrus was on their backs, looking down, counting the stone that he passed.

One crazy King Wind.

I walked inside the Elemental Kingdom and went directly to the kitchen. My shoulder dropped as I saw how dirty the kitchen was. There were so many dishes on the sink, meaning I should clean all those things. I was curious when I saw that the flour, salt, and other ingredients were messed up. Cass was always organized so why were those stuff scattered around?

Only to find out that the Rainbow Sisters were here. They hid from the refrigerator and when I looked at them, they walked out and showed me their hair.

Crap. The hair is the first thing I saw!

Jina waved her hands. "How's life, Fira?"

Lina folded her arms under the chest. "She may probably be having a nightmare."

They laughed so hard as if that was the only thing that made them happy.

What is their problem anyway? Are they not content with being a beta? Poor little rainbow hairy girls.

I smirked as I thought about that. I just ignored them by getting the flour on the ground using the broom and dust pan.

"How's Carter shaft? Did he satisfy you?" Jina blocked my way. My eyes met her red hair which made my lips curve a little. It was funny to see the hair. They looked like power pop girls from the century with a new version of hair.

I chin up, looking at them with bravery. "Sadly, no." I felt like teasing these colorful werewolves.

"What?" Lina formed a smirk on her lips. "You're whore. It seems big. Why did he not give you pleasure?"

I laughed sarcastically. "Oh?" My mouth formed a letter O. "So...you saw his—" I shook my head as embarrassment crawled all over my system, not mentioning what was that.

Her sisters looked at Lina with the stun on their eyes.

"You had s*x with him?" Jina could not believe her sister.

"Seriously, Lina?" Hina stared at her sister with extreme shock in her face.

Lina just looked down. Her gesture showed they were right. I was right.

Yuck. I felt like vomiting!

"Just one time, okay!" Lina admitted she was not looking at her sisters.

"Oh, come on!" Jina gritted her teeth. "To me, too!"

Hina was having a jaw dropped while her eyes were widening. I thought that Carter did the same thing to her. By imagining that the tree of them, took by that pervert. I went to the sink and vomited.

"Eeww! You three are gross." My face was showing a great dislike of what I had heard.

Instead of feeling the same way as I was, they all smirked. The boastful expression was on their faces. "Same as you!" They all said with a loud voice.

I teased them by having a big wonderful smile. "No. I didn't. Janus saved me, Wh*res!"

They all glared at me with giggling expressions. "You're just lying!" Jina shouted, she cleaned her fist while marching towards me. "He deflowered you!"

"We're sure!" Lina marched towards me and pushed me, the reason why my back hit the corner of the sink. I writhed in pain while looking at the damaged area.

"You deserved that!" Hina showed the emotion of strong happiness due to my aching back.

I felt the waves of pain in my lower dorsal. My body hit the cement hard. I was wincing as I twisted my body, my both hands were on the aching portion.

"What should we do?" Lina talked to them, I saw that they were having an eye talk by just staring at each other.

"I don't understand. What did I do wrong to all of you?" Out of nowhere, I asked them the question that has been running into my mind since I was a young.

"We just hate you." Jina's right eyebrow went up.

"Then why do you hate me? It has a reason for sure? You even order Carter to—" I did not want to remember the night, but I had to, "to rape me? Just because you hate me without specific cause? How come? Did you know that he can murder me?"

"We don't care. All we want is…" Lina moved closer to my face, "you to die like your mother."

My eyes blackened by mentioning my mother. Last thing I knew, my temper lost. I grabbed the plate and slapped it towards Lina's face by the time Saza walked inside the kitchen.

"Fira!"

"If I am going to take slashes, I would never regret this!" I threw all the plates on the sink to their bodies, causing it to fall on the ground and break.

"You, b*tch!" They were shouting while running, going away from me.

I was gritting so bad. My madness was scattering all over my body.
