Chapter 10
THE HIDDEN MONSTERS
FIRA’S POV
I was smiling like a crazy person when the door in his room closed. If I was just alone. I jumped so high. He said thank you to me!
I had no idea why I had this feeling of happiness inside my chest. No matter what it was, I did not mind. At least I was happy with the simple gesture of King Fire.
I did not believe that his heart would not soften. I remembered how he saved me even though he did not know me. If he did not come, I might die like my mother. His heart was pure and genuine. I was looking forward to that. I would do anything to help him and even sacrifice my own life. That was how I committed myself to him. By giving back his kindness.
“Fira!” Zephyris circled his arms on my shoulder. I had an awkwards feeling about that. “Imagine. Puro does not want another person in his room, he doesn’t want another person to be close to him, but you break the boundary! You are a lucky woman.”
A fake smile formed on my lips. What is he saying? I did not do anything. I just took care of him because he had a fever.
Colden smiled at me when my eyes met him. He was scratching his forehead. That Alpha King of Ice was shy, that was his personality. I noticed it before.
“King Wind, don’t touch her. Respect women.” Raiden, the Alpha King of Lightning said. He was thinking matured and I think he was balancing the naughtiness of his brothers.
Zephyrus removed his hand on me as if he felt burned. “Oops. I thought we were closed. We are friends, right, Fira?”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
“Yes, of course, your majesty.” I was stuttering. These men were not ordinary werewolves. They were kings! They were talking at me as if I was higher in rank.
“See? In the city it was normal to give a girl a friendly touch.” Zephyrus smirked like an even teaser while staring at Raiden. “You can go with me in the city if our father gives us permission. You will meet plenty of beautiful girls!”
“No, thanks.” Raiden walked faster, passing them all. “If you need something. I am in the library.” He walked away from us. Then, I looked back again to look at Zephyrus. “Don’t try to escape again. I will tell father if I caught you.”
Zephyrus pouted and glared at him. “Fine! This place is boring!”
Is Zephyrus the younger among them all? I thought he was.
“Louder. So that father could hear you.” Hali gave him a teasing smile. He stretched his body. “I will take another training so I can beat Pyro’s ass.”
“In your dream.” Zephyrus teased him back. He walked away to the hallway. “See you next time, Fira!”
“See you, too, your majesty.” I bowed to him even though he was running out of sight.
Alpha King of Ice, Colden, waved his hand a bit. “See you when I see you, Fira.” He gave me a smile before stepping away from us.
“Bye.” Hali said farewell, too
I bowed to him and responded. “Bye, your majesty.”
I watched the place where they walked. Their attitude was different. I could say that they were kind and were good kings for their werewolves. I thought in the fairy tales, the King always possessed a rude and ruthless personality. Well… Pyro was an exemption. He was rude at times.
“Fira!” Saza saw me in the hallway. “Where have you been last night after going to King Wind?”
I bowed my head. I was trying to hide the trembling of my body. She was glaring at me as if his voice was itching to order the guard to slash me.
“I am in the King Fire’s room, Madame.” I intertwined my hands. I tightened the hold of it. I was viewing the ground and I could not stare directly in her eyes.
Crap. Please drag me out of this breathtaking moment. She could order a slash if I had no proper reason.
“Okay. Go to the Omega quarter. Bath yourself and follow me in the kitchen. I will give you five minutes!” Our eyes met, she had wrinkling eyebrows and madness on her expression.
Actually, Saza was one of the youngest Omega leaders. She was the same age as me. The problem was, she acted as if she was a higher rank than the kings.
“I will do that, Madame.”
“Faster!”
My feet rattled. I did not know where to start walking because I was nervous. I grabbed plenty of air and harshly bursted it out. I did that three times before my system became calm. She was scarier than the kings.
That woman. Crap.
I walked inside the Omega Quarter, my sister was inside. Since we were assigned to the Kings, specifically to me was King of Fire and she was to King Ice, Colden.
“Good morning, Sister.” I hugged her. She was sitting in the vanity mirror.
“Morning.” She gave me a small smile. “How’s your night with King Wind?” Her fist closed. “I will kill him in my bare hands when he takes advantage of you.”
My feet stuck on the ground. She was always like that, protective of her family. She was also joined the secret training for the omega so that she could learn how to fight even though she was in the bottom of the rank.
“No, no! I was with King Fire and nothing happened like that.”
She closed her eyes and a sigh of relief burst out on her. “You don’t know how much I worried when I heard that King Wind called you to warm his bed.”
“Zephyrus is not what you think, Sis. The kings were different from what we expected. They are all kind.” I sat on the bottom bed. We had a double decker bed. I was located on the bottom bed and she was on the top bed. We were just two in this small room.
“Zephyrus? You know his name?” Eira looked at me with her disbelieving eyes. “How did you know?”
“He told me. They told me their names.” A wide beautiful smile formed on my lips.
“I only know Colden.” She said honestly. “He gave me his name even though I did not ask.”
“Yeah! Told you. They are kind!” I removed the apron on my waist. Time to take a bath. My eyes widened when I remembered that Saza only gave me five minutes!
“Oh, crap! I need to hurry!” I went to the bathroom immediately.
“Fira?” Eira was leaning on the door. I could feel that. I was just soaping my body so fast.
“Yes, Big Sis?”
“Don’t trust the kings too much.”
I stopped cleaning my body. I looked at the door. I could not see her, but I knew she was still standing there behind the door.
“Royal are all the same. They will take advantage of your innocence. They will use their power to manipulate you.”
A silence filled my ear. “What do you mean?”
“Be aware of their hidden monsters.”
