Chapter 85 HE IS MINE

FIRA’S POV

After the night with Hali, he brought me to the doctor first before I went to the Omega's Quarter for me to rest. He made sure that my cheek would not be as red as before. I slept tightly. I was super tired that night.

When the morning came, everyone was so busy because of the celebration of the Alpha Kings’ Birthday. I was in the kitchen with Cass. We were moving as fast as we could due to King Arealdo’s order. There would be many visitors today from different packs and kingdoms.

I saw Pyro in the hallway, but he did not react or say something. He was with Princess Ziraya. I heard her name from Cass, the Princess of the Brave Wolves Kingdom.

“I don’t like that Princess.” Cass was murmuring as she washed the dishes and put it on the cabinet.

“You said the same thing as King Wind said.” I was in the sink beside her. We both doubled our action because of so much work that we needed to finish.

“Can you observe her? Yes! She looks like an angel, but inside...she is evil. She always has a plan. Bad plan. The way she smirks means that she will be doing something worse.” Cass was rolling her eyes.

“Seriously? Why are you saying that?” I was just curious why she was so irritated with the Princess. It was obvious. She was giggling as if anytime soon, she would pull her hair.

“I’m so annoyed! She ordered me to give her some juice in her room. She didn’t drink it. She threw it on my uniform instead! Her reason was unbelievable! She just likes to annoy people because she is freaking bored!” While saying that her eyes were rolling and even the grip on the plate was tightened.

“Crap! She's more mean than I thought.”

“Yeah! Not just that. She keeps tailing King Fire’s back! She is playing kind and then at the end of the day, the workers would be punished with the things that they didn't do.” I could see that her eyes were so mad as if it could burn everything it saw. “I heard that the Introduction of Slaves would also be held today because that irritating Princess wants to know the sinners.”

“Oh? Really? Is that a bad idea that the Slaves would be showed to the whole kingdom during the Kings’ Birthday?”

The slaves were on the Dungeon for so long. The rule of the kingdom, when they caught disobeying the laws, they would be in jail and called as a slaves. After they are introduced, they will serve the whole kingdom day and night. Whatever they order, even the Omega can demand something from them. They will be treated as trash and unworthy people. They would spend the rest of their life obeying everyone’s request.

“Not a bad thing, not a good thing.” Cass gave me the rug. I held it and started to clean the mess at the table.

“Is there possibility that the slave would be out of slavery?” I could not understand why I was feeling nervous to know who these people were.

“Yes, if one of the kings agrees that he didn’t commit mistakes. But…they need proof. Why are you curious?”

“Nothing.” I shook my head while wiping the small amount of dust on the table. “I just want knowledge about that. Mom didn’t talk about slavery.”

“Quick! The Kings will ramp at the red carpet! Everyone should be in the ceremony!” Saza was shouting. She looked at me with her one eyebrow up. “Don’t do something studpid today!”

“Yes, sure.” I smiled at her with my full teeth. Of course, I would not. This is the special day of the kings.

“What’s your gift to King Fire?” Cass gazed at me with a beautiful smile. I looked down at my watch which was given by Pyro.

“Nothing. I didn’t…” I scratched my head. “I didn’t prepare.”

“That's okay!” She tapped my shoulder and then went to my ear. “A simple kiss will do.” She laughed so hard as she passed me and then when I did not follow her, she grabbed my upper arm. “Let’s go! Let’s see the handsome kings!”

I was smiling so widely as we went to the hallway where the kings would walk. The sound of the flute could be heard, the signs that the celebration had started already. We were tip toeing because the people in front of us were taller. I just have a small peep of the view.

King Arealdo was grateful as he looked at the people surrounding the hallway. It was more than we expected. The Elemental Kingdom opened for all the outsiders.

I saw Zyphyrus, he was so handsome with the blue king garment. His right arm was stretched above the head while waving to all. “Party people! Thank you for coming!” He was so happy and energetic.

Raiden seemed annoyed as he was peeping and then looking away with the girl beside Hali. I stared at the woman. She was so gorgeous with her white bubble waist gown, but her face was not happy. Even if her forehead was wrinkled, the beauty was on her. My eyes widened as I realized something.

Crap! She’s the Lost Luna Queen of Archimedes! Woah! Has Raiden succeeded in his mission to bring back the Luna Queen?

I could not recover from the shock immediately. I just got back to reality when I saw King Fire. His face was not wearing any emotion, but his incomparable handsome cool look would be radiating to anyone. His mouth was sealed, he did not want to talk to anyone or even smile. I wanted to go run and hugged him. Then, I told him a happiest birthday, but it was so sad. I was not allowed to go with him.

I could feel the twisting, stabbing and hurtful sensation in my chest when my eyes went down to his arm. Princess Ziraya’s hand rolled on him as if she was saying to the world that King Fire is his.

I gazed sharply at her happy face. I gritted my teeth as I said my thoughts in my head.

She is a Princess, but I am King Fire’s Queen. The symbol is the resemblance that the bonding between us is strong.

He. Is. Mine.

Mine alone.
