Chapter 100
SO MAD
FIRA’S POV
My eyes filled with tears as I heard that. “I want… but you are a king.”
“I’m your king.” His lips touched my forehead. “Let’s cross the bridge when it’s in front of us.”
“You can’t understand.” The tears started to roll on my cheek.
Pyro’s face was shocked. “No, no, no! I’m sorry. Didn’t you like it?” He wiped my tears, but no matter how many times he removed it, the tears would not stop. “Apology, Dearest. Please don’t cry.”
“No, you don’t need to say that. I want this. I want us but…” My sob was intensified. “Why can’t we be as normal as other lovers? Marrying each other and being a happy family? Like my mom and dad?”
His expression softened. He stroked my hair and then left no distance to our noses, he rubbed it into left and right direction. “I will do everything that I can. I swear, we’ll live like that. Just… hold on.”
“When?”
Silence.
This relationship had no assurance. Yes, we liked each other. Yes, we were mates and yes, the symbol was in me.
But it’s a no, for the Higher King, Ministers and people of the Elemental Kingdom. This kind of setup between the king and omega would never be the norm in our world.
Unless I became an Omega Princess, but that would be next year. There were plenty to happen for this year and one was his marriage to the Princess of the Brave Wolves Kingdom.
“If this world does not agree with us. We will create our own world.” His tone was determined. I shut my mouth, but I knew what he was saying had a big meaning. He had a plan in his mind that I did not want to know because I was not sure if I could be… in that plan.
I have to mind others-my family and friend, Janus.
“King Fire, you need to hurry.” We heard Seryo at the door even though he was far from us. Our wolves were the reason why.
Pyro moved faster. He fixed my clothes. After that, he held my hand. “I’ll be here again tomorrow.” He kissed my lips. “I love you. Careful.”
I moved my head in an upright direction. “I love you, too.” I tiptoed and kissed him. We glued our lips together in a short period of time and then hurried to get out of the library and separated our ways.
I was curious why Seryo was not bringing me to the way of the Omega’s Quarter. I stopped walking and glared at the back of Seryo. Suddenly, I had a doubt on him. I had no one to trust except for the kings.
Seryo stuck his feet and looked back on me. “Not trusting me is fine. That’s a good sign that King Water is teaching you well. He’s waiting for you and please… don’t let King Fire know about this.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Am I going to have training?”
“Watch out.” He continued walking again. I was gasping for air due to the nervousness that was running throughout my body.
I had a breath easily when we arrived at the Riverside. King Water was waiting for me. He was sitting on a huge rock. “Is it hard for King Fire to put his seed on you? I waited for about one and a half hours.” He seemed annoyed.
I looked down, my cheek ignited as what he said. He was talking so vulgarly. I was so shy about that because that was true.
“You can leave us, Seryo. Thanks, Bud.” He even fist bumped Seryo as if they were just friends. I was really amazed by the attitude of the kings. They were kind and treated everyone well.
When Seryo left us. I was scared by how Hali looked at me. He was glaring at me as if I was a prey and he was a predator getting ready to get food. “You are late.”
“Just because…” I gulped my saliva, swallowing the fear that was living inside my chest. “Because you didn’t tell me that we’re going to have training tonight.”
“Now you know. What are you going to do?” His forehead was furrowed as if he was expecting me to do something. I used all my brain cells to think about what a fighter first things to do. For sure, he would slap me if I did not get it.
I looked around. There was nothing I could see, except the… arnis!
Yeah, getting the instrument, or else I would fight using my bare bodies. Hali was about to attack me, I dodged to the left, ran towards the rock, and got the arnis. I went to his back and then hit him. He was unaffected, which means my hit was not that strong. I hit him again.
In the previous days, he did not tire of doing his best to train me. After my training, in the morning, I will go to Raiden to teach me written knowledge about the strategies. In the afternoon, I sneaked on my duty and traveled to Colden. He was training me to create a poison, a medicine and a potion. They were all working together to help me into a better wolf who could not need to seek help from others. I was sometimes looking at Zephyrus, what else could he teach me? But he was just saying nonsense things such as how to be a good warmer in bed. Since they knew that something happened between me and Pyro. I was so shy to talk about it, but they were explicit. They were open minded. Well… except for Raiden. He was the one who was always mad when he heard Zephyrus talking dirty. He was not tolerating him teaching dirty actions to me and seductive skills, but that was still marked in my head.
Because he said, “You need to drive him crazy, if not… other girls can do that. You don’t want that to happen, are you?”
That was why every time he talked about it even if my cheek was igniting in shyness, I was listening. I just wondered if I could do that.
“Kick!”
The training with Hali was not yet done. We were facing a huge tree branch. He was teaching me how to have a strong thigh and legs by kicking the hard wood.
He went closer to it and kicked it, the leaves fell on the forest floor. It caused a crack on the tree which means that was an unbelievably great hit. “Now your turn. Just bring it all out. You need to put a crack on the tree as I did.”
I gasped in the cold air. The morning was coming. We were here the whole night. I had plenty of bruises, but I did not protest at the training. This would help me in the future. I glared at the wrinkle of the tree body and then prepared myself. I kicked it with all the braveness I had, I closed my eyes when it caused super pain to me. The panting muscle at my legs due to the hit.
“I don’t tell you to stop! You are free to pause when you already cause a crack at it!” Hali grabbed my arms and pushed me. “Repeat!”
I bit my lips and kicked the tree. I did my very best to be a good trainer. Every hit was hurting me, it was so painful. I was guessing that the tree would not break, but my bone instead. I was holding back the tears because I could not take it anymore, but Hali also taught me not to cry easily. If I sob in front of them, he would slap me over and over again until I stopped.
“Is that what you can do? You are a weak omega who is low born! You have no privilege! You can’t marry Pyro because you are just a servant in the eyes of many!” Hali was whispering that to my ear. It was hurting my chest. I kicked so hard. Harder. I giggled because of the way he was telling me that. He was belittling my life.
I am so mad at him. Right now!
