Alpha King of Fire

FIRA’S POV

I never stopped crying as we arrived at the Elemental Kingdom. From the moment my feet stomped on the entrance, I changed into a human form. The face of Janus, while Carter was hitting him with a sword, replayed to my head over and over again.

“Fira?”

I looked up on the owner of the shoes who was standing in front of me.

“King Fire!” Ember ran towards him when she got down at the wolf form of my father and hugged his knee.

“Guards, get a towel.” Pyro immediately carried Ember on his arm. He gazed at me for a second. Then, his eyes went to Ember who was crying so loud, leaning her face on his shoulder. Seeing them at the position made me feel guilty about Janus.

Even if he was having difficulty carrying the little girl, he knelt down, covered my body with the towel that was given by the guard. He hugged me so tight. I could not help myself but burst out crying. Pyro was embracing the two of us and felt so light in the heart even though my heart was ripping into pieces.

“I witnessed how Carter killed Papa.” Ember was whispering in Pyro’s ear. I buried my face on his chest, letting his king garment wet by my tears.

I could not name the pain that I was holding inside my heart. The stabbing sensation was continued to rip it into tiny pieces. I ignored the coldness of the air, touching my skin. I did not mind how I looked or who was the man that I was hugging.

“Shhh.” I could feel his lips touch my forehead.

Was he not mad at me? I left him, never saying goodbye, married another man, and live with him for four hard years.

“Seryo, bring battalions of guards to the Red Moon Pack, save everyone that’s still breathing,” Pyro ordered to his favorite guard.

He had never changed, he was the same as before. The gentleman, the king of his low voice and just speaking when it was needed.

“Would they be saved Papa?” Ember’s little voice bothered him, looking at his face while her small hand grasped his shoulder.

“We’ll know.” King Fire carried us to the hallway, including my sister and father.

Eira was looking around, she was looking for King Ice, even if she did not talk. I knew how she missed him. By going home in this place. I felt secure and safe, especially when King Fire was beside us.

He brought us to the Guest Room. He sat on the bed while Ember was on his lap. I was startled when I noticed that Ember fell asleep on him.

“There’s a cabinet, put on clothes.” He averted his look on me. He ordered the guard outside to guide Eira and Dad to their rooms. At first, they insisted to be with us, but King Fire told them that he had important matters to say.

I bowed my head to him, the embarrassment was covering my system as I held the hips of my daughter. “Sorry, your majesty. Let me handle my child.”

“Would you want to be naked in front of me for the whole time?” His eyes darkened as he glued it on me.

I shook my head. The tears from my face dried, the same as my daughter’s. “No.”

I turned my back, scrutinizing the dress that I could possibly wear. I walked to the bathroom. When I finished, I went back. I was scared to create a sound. Afraid of making King Fire mad. It was a long time ago. I was not sure if there was a change in his attitude.

My feet were glued on the ground when I viewed him, slowly lying Ember on the bed. He was staring at her as if he was something in his mind. I could not read it. He cupped her cheek, brushed her hair, and make sure that she was in a comfortable position. His eyebrow formed waves. Ib thought that he realized something. The terrified scattered throughout my body when the information about her biological father could come up to Pyro’s head.

He’s a smart King. Crap!

When he moved his head in my direction. I froze. Our eyes met. I missed those tantalizing eyes that seemed to be always sleepy. I was longing to touch his face, feel his warmth and be with him again. My memories flashback to all the things that we had been through in the past.

I was unaware that the hot liquid was dripping on my face, causing my vision to be blurry. No matter what I did, I could not bring back the relationship. If only i knew that we may possibly went back here, I would not leave him.

King Fire adjusted his body to settle down near the feet of Ember. “She looks like an angel.” He did not show any emotion.

“Thank you, your majesty.”

“I didn’t remember that I give permission to call me Your Majesty when we’re alone?” His forehead furrowed.

“Apology, Pyro.” I lowered my head. I had no energy to talk much or greet him happily. After what had happened to the Red Moon Pack, I needed to compose myself again.

Janus popped into my head. It was painful to hope that maybe he is still alive. However, I watched him suffering to pain. I witnessed everything, the burning of our house while we were Running away. It was heavy. Janus sacrificed everything just to have an order between his people. Eventually, he lose it. He lost everything even his life.

I heard the sigh of Pyro. “Lock the door after I leave. I’ll go to Red Moon.”

With the back of my hand, I wiped away the tears. I wanted to tell him no. I was anxious that something terrible might happen. I did not want him to go through what Carter had gone through with my husband.

I will go insane if Pyro died.

He stood up. He did not even look back on me. I was aware that it was easy to forgive me. He was about to rotate the doorknob when I ran, blocked his way.

“Please, don’t go. I’m scared.”

“Move aside.” He gazed at me with his blank emotion. I was not used to that look. It made me feel that I was a stranger.

“Please don’t leave us. I don’t厀ant to be alone.”

My sob covered the room. I thought he would listen to me. He broke my heart by gently dragging me to the side and walking out of the room. The slammed door could be heard as he finally left.

I sealed my mouth using my hands, cried with my heart out. Afraid of waking up Ember. Therefore, I burst out my pain silently.

“I want you to stay because I can’t bear it if I lose you,” I whispered in the air.
