Alpha King of Fire

A BRAVE WOMAN

FIRA’S POV

I kicked with the clenching of my jaw. I did not even feel the pain in my feet. I could only feel the madness in my heart to the Alpha King of Water!

“Can you hear me? You and Pyro would never be compatible with each other because you two have long distance ranks. you will end up a servant forever and Pyrp will marry Princess Ziraya. They would even ask you to watch when they are making love!”

I hit so hard, giving all my strength, but it was not enough to break the tree. It would never be enough! Maybe he was right! I would just end up a servant and worse, end up a personal maid of their child.

“You are nothing! Weak! Pathetic!” His whisper to my ear intensified. “Your mother died because you can protect her. She died because you are-”

“Ahh!” I gathered all that I could gather to give one rough blow to the trees. It broke and then I faced Hali. He was shocked when I kicked him in the belly. It was so strong that it made him fly at the other body of the tree. I was about to move closer to him when he ran faster, he pushed me away. We both rolled on the ground as the tree slowly dropped. If it was not because of him, the tree could hurt me, I would possibly be under that now.

Crap!

I stared at Hali. He was on top of me. My eyes were widening. He was also surprised, too. Our breaths almost disappeared. We could not move immediately until we realized that the position was really awkward. That was why he stood up as fast as he could. He looked at his side, unable to stare at me.

“Apology.” He said in a low tone.

I removed the block inside my throat before speaking. “That’s nothing. Unintentional.”

He offered his hand to me. “Stand up. We’ll continue.”

I gave him a small smile before grabbing his hand. When I was moving my body up, I felt dizzy, that was why I almost fell again. Good thing, he enveloped his arms on my waist and supported me. That was another embarrassing position because his hands were on my face while I was bending my body backward. Our faces were a little distance apart. We stayed in that position for about a second until he shook his head and chuckled. He pulled me up. “What a scene.”

I chuckled, too. Honestly, it was just nothing to me. Our hearts were occupied by someone. It was obvious that it seemed embarrassing to both of us, but deep inside, it was just not important. It would not change my feelings for Pyro.

Lately, we became close to each other because of this training. I have known him more.

“Let’s go to the rock. We need a little break.” He turned his back while his arms were folded under his chest. He walked cool and badass, but the truth was he would be soft when it came to the girl she loved.

I held the bottle of water which the Zephyrus brought here. He was thoughtful to remember me even if he was busy with the king’s task. After I drank the water, I put it by my side.

“Seriously?” He started a conversation. He was beside me, looking at the falls of the river. “How did Pyro end up loving you?”

I chuckled before answering him. “I have no idea.”

He blew a loud sigh of frustration. I felt that he had something in his mind that he did not want to tell me.

“How about you? Did you…” I shook my head slightly, “fall in love?”

He grinned and stared at my face. “Do I look like a lover boy like Pyro?”

I moved my head from left and right. “No… Pyro either, but he fell to me. Everybody’s falling in love.”

His face became serious. He grabbed a small rock and threw it into the river. He liked to do that wherever we were here.

“How to know that sh*t?”

“Hey!” I faced my body to him. We were just an inch apart. “That is not…” I could not continue that word because that was a curse.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Say it!”

“Why are you saying vulgar things? Like Zephyrus?”

It was hard for him to chuckle when it ca, e to me, but now he was chuckling. “Because it’s a delight to say blunt words like sh*t. I feel like I’m… free. I’m a normal person living in the city.” He looked at the river, threw another rock.

“Oh. If that’s what you feel. But honestly, you don’t need to feel normal because you are… You are a king.” I lowered my tone when I said that.

“That’s the point. I don’t want to be a king. Following the f*cking rules and laws. I can’t even live peacefully. Everyone is f*cking likes me when in fact… they don’t.” He gazed at my face, shaking his head. “I can’t find real love, real friends, real people because they are all pretending.”

“That’s not true.” I intertwined my hands. “They like you because you are Hali. They like you not because you are the king… liking is not what you think. It can automatically feel and give to someone special, not just to lovers… but to people around you.”

“Is that what you feel about Pyro? Is he your first love?”

I gave him a small smile. I raised my feet and then swayed them in the air. “He’s my friend before. I thought that all of the kings were ruthless and will never be friends with people like me. I met him, not knowing that he is one of the Elemental Kingdom’s kings. He and his brothers are proof that there is equality between an Omega and the royals.” I looked up. The sun was rising. We did not sleep. I could also feel the aching of my feet.

Suddenly, I was shocked when he brought his body down and checked my feet. “You, poor little feet.” He looked up on me and smiled. I found him handsome at that position. “I will tell Zephyrus to bring medicine to you.”

“Thank you, Hali.”

He just nodded. “Go back to sleep even if it’s just three hours before your duty.”

I nodded before following him. When I arrived at my room, Eira was still not there. I was thinking that she was still with King Ice so I just laid my body down. I could feel the aching of different parts of my body, especially my feet.

I was thinking of Pyro until I fell asleep.

I can be a brave woman for him.
