Chapter 81 DISASTER

FIRA’S POV

I was excited to bring the hot chocolate to the room of King Fire. I was about to knock when I heard someone talking inside. My smile faded as I realized what the conversation was all about. It was Zephyrus and Pyro, they seemed arguing.

“F*ck! Yeah I love f*cking random girls, but when I loved the girl I would not not be f*ck up like you! Why do you agree with marriage? Then what are you going to do with Fira? Dumb her?” I could feel the anger of Zephyrus. He was a happy king like I always described, but at this time...he was so angry.

What are they talking about? Why is my name included?

“I don’t love her! I’m a king, Zephyrus. I should serve the kingdom according to my duty.”

“Don’t be a martyr. You have a choice, but you choose to be silent.”

I don’t love her? Me?

My grip at the cup of chocolate tightened. My heart was suffering from the ache that I had no clue where it came from. At the beginning, I was aware that he was a king and I was just an omega. I should not be shocked by the revelation.

He does not love me? Then fine. But my heart was ripping into small pieces? Why is my chest acting weird?

“You’re a dumbass when it comes to women. Why are you so concerned about her?” My chest was full of disbelief. My brain was not absorbing what Pyro was saying to Zephyrus.

Is he the Pyro I knew? It felt like he was a different man.

“I can't believe you, Pyro. How can you say that to me when the topic is you and Fira? Well...wanna know? Because...I love Fira!”

The cup of chocolate slipped from my hand. My eyes were widening as I saw that it was spreading around the floor. I immediately got down and tried to dry it with my hand. I was panicking, that was why I did not know what to do.

My body froze as the door burst open. Zephyrus and Pyro were looking down on me.

“I’m sorry, your majesty.” I could not fight their stare on me. I was just looking down. Zephyrus helped me to clean the mess. He grabbed a tissue from the inside and then wiped the liquid. “Be careful next time.”

Pyro just standing at the door, looking at us with no emotion in his face. I felt like the old Pyro came back. The one who did not talk and was unreadable.

What happened to him? Is there something wrong?

I wanted to ask, but it seemed like the scare to my heart for the royalty came back. This man was different. He was not my friend or the king who kissed me three times. Or the Pyro who was always kind and gentle to me so I kept my mouth shut as I was cleaning.

In an instant, the lines of Zephyrus popped up in my mind. He was saying that he loved me? Was that a joke or he was just tripping around again like he always did.

“Fira?”

I got back to my senses when Zephyrus called me. I blinked three times and stared at his face for so long.

“Yeah, I know that I’m handsome. Don’t gaze at me like that.” Zephyrus chuckled as he grabbed my hand and wiped it with the table napkin.

“Thank you, your majesty.” I was not smiling or having a glimpse of him when I stood up and turned my back. I did not look at Pyro even though I knew that his presence was on the entrance of his room.

Crap. Why do I expect that King Fire would have feelings for me? Or he would possibly like me when in fact, that would not happen even in dream.

Those kisses were just nothing. Everyone was kissing when they liked. It was not that big of a deal. By thinking like that, I did not notice that there was a liquid rolling in my cheek. I was like a crazy woman who was sobbing while walking in the hallway. I looked down so people would not notice that I was crying.

The happy memories of me and him replayed into my mind that made my heart choke and ached. Last night, we were so happy on the arm of each other. We laughed, smiled and talked as if we were lovers. In the blink of an eye, it changed.

I was drowned in my thinking that I had not noticed that there was a woman walking towards my direction. I bumped into her, the chocolate stained her long gown. I was about to look up to know who she was. I was surprised when a palm landed on my cheek. That was so painful. I could feel the stinging sensation, the cause of her slap.

“You're an idiot! Look at your way!” She was gritting her teeth as she looked at me sharply.

I just looked down. She was a royal, her dress was exposing her rank. She was not wearing a uniform of a beta or omega. She was in a blue bubble waist gown with her hair fixed like a princess.

“I’m sorry, your majesty.” That was the second time that I was saying that word for today. Her slap was nothing compared to the pain in my chest now. That was really fine even though my cheek was red and it felt burning.

The Princess was about to slap me again when a hand held her wrist, prohibiting her. “You’re not yet the queen of the Fire Pack. You’re not allowed to hurt anyone from the Elemental Kingdom.”

My body was stuck to where I was standing. I could not believe that Colden was in front of me, saving me from this Princess.

“King Ice.” One eyebrow of the Princess moved up and the smirk formed on her lips. She stared at my face with a sharp evil look in her eyes. “She’s an omega. Unimportant.”

“Every person in this kingdom is important. The organization would not run without the role of one another. It functions as one.”

We all looked at the Princess’ back, it was now Raiden who spoke. He was with Hali to his side.

“Friendly suggestion.” Hali folded his arms on his chest. “If you want King Fire to marry you. Leave her alone.”

My mouth barely opened as I stared at Hali’s eyes. I heard it right. This Princess in front of me would be the King Fire’s Queen. It made sense why he was acting strange to me. Why he was saying those things was just because he would go far from me because he would have a wife.

That’s so sad.

the thrill showed in the face of the Princess, the smirk became evil as she looked at me. She observed my face down to my chest, waist and then feet. “You’re pretty for an omega.” She moved closer to me, she was playing with her hair. She went to my ear and whispered. “I’ll ruin you.”

I automatically moved backward when I heard her voice. She acted as if she said nothing to me.

“What’s your name, Garbage?” She talked rudely as she raised her two eyebrows waiting for my answer.

“Call her garbage again. I will put you in the trash.”

Another shocking moment again when I heard King Fire at my back. He moved closer to me and then stared at my face. He gritted his teeth when he saw the mark of a palm to my cheek.

“Did you slap her?” His voice was just in a low tone. He was not threatening her, just asking and was expecting to say no to him. He got no response. Instead the Princess gave her a playful smile as if she was teasing him.

“Did. You. Slap. Her!” His angry voice echoed in the hallway that made the kings alarmed. They immediately ran towards Pyro and guarded him. Trying to calm him down. “Guards! Give her—"

“No!” Raiden grabbed his shoulder and dragged him away to the Princess. Raiden removed his hand when he felt that Pyro was burning. Suddenly, he caused a huge fire in his body.

“Crap!” I ran towards Pyro and hugged him so tight, “Relax, Dearest. Relax. I’m okay. Look at me.” I cupped his cheek and said everything to make him look at me. “Dearest, it's me Fira. Look. I’m good. No pain. Promise!” I raised my hand and then held his hand, massaged it in a second. I was just curious why I could not feel the burning sensation even though he was flaming in fire at the moment.

Maybe because of the symbol in my wrist?

It was not working. Pyro’s eyes were still in flames. I buried my head on his chest and wrapped my hand on his waist. “Did you remember our first date? I am so happy that day and until now if that comes in my mind...the smile never faded.”

In an instant, the fire became low until it finally disappeared. I felt his embrace in my small body. He rested his face on my shoulder and tightened his hug. I closed my eyes while feeling the warmth in his body. When I opened it, I saw the giggling expression of the Princess.

I know this will be the start of a disaster in my life.
