Chapter 105
I NEED FRESH AIR
PYRO’S POV
When I opened the door, I was expecting that she was Fira. I forgot that she could not go here in an instant due to the guards. The Princess smiled at me. She reported to my father that I ripped her gown. That was why I was grounded, I could not go out of my room unless I was with Princess.
“I’ll show you something interesting.” Her smile became a grin. This girl was more evil than my monster.
I was preparing to slam the door on her face when she talked again. “If you shut the door. I’ll make sure that King Arealdo will know about your secret affair with the omega.”
I shook my head with annoyance. “What do you need?”
“Just a walk.”
I would go to the library, Fira was waiting for me. I did not want her to stay there, it was dark and dangerous when she was alone. But this irritating Princess was ruining our plan. I joined her on the walk even though I was like an air, I did not talk, I seemed nothing.
“When I was kid, my hope was to walk with you, your majesty.” She started a nonsense conversation. I had no idea that even when she was a small girl she knew me well. “Anyway, I found out a secret that you won’t believe.”
I just blinked two times. My mouth was sealed and I had no plan to talk. I was walking with all the boredom in my body.
“You’re not the only man of Fira.”
I still did not respond. I would never believe her. I love Fira and she loves me back. Other guy has no room in her heart.
“King Water and her-”
“If you’re bored with your life, don’t play.” I faced her with irritation at my face. “You’re not a kid anymore.”
“I’m not playing! You can see that I’m right!”
“Are you shouting at me?” My voice was just low, but full of authority.
She bowed her head. “Apology, my king.”
“King Fire.” I corrected it. “I’m not your king.”
Our walk was filled with silence. I was unable to talk with her because if I did, I would just only treat her with rudeness. She should not choose me as her king because my heart belonged to Fira. Even if the Princess and I got married, I could not make love to her and produce an heir.
We stopped over at the riverside. I did not bring her to the place where Fira and I went during the Full Moon. I only want to remember her at that place. No other woman.
“You have thirty minutes to look at the view.” I heard the bubbling of the water and the cracking of the trees due to excessive swaying because of the forceful air.
I just gave her a minute, but it became an hour. She was telling a story about her kingdom. Although I was not listening, I let her.
“King Fire?”
I looked at her. I was shocked when she cupped my cheek and then kissed me. I was unable to move or at least push her, but she is a Princess. I can’t do that. I held her shoulder and the gentle way and gave a little distance to our bodies.
“You can kiss me, but my heart will never be in you.”
The tears condensed at her eyes. I touched her cheek and kissed her forehead. “Sorry for hurting you.”
I was about to grab her when I saw at her back that Hali was kissing a girl. I tilted my head to look at who he was kissing. I clenched my fist when I saw that it was Fira! I waited for a second for Fira to push him, and protested, but she did not do.
Damn, She likes the kiss.
I marched towards them with a closed palm and gave Hali a strong punch at the cheek. I was speechless. I wanted to kill this bastard with my very own hands.
I will never believe in a fairy tale of love again. We are finished.
*****
We were at the long table, me, my father, the Princess, and the kings. I was just silent when they were conversing. I ate whatever I wanted. When I looked up, I saw that Hali was in front of me. My blood automatically boiled. He would not show me his face.
Gross. Betraying a brother? Really?NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Did you two fight?” Zephyrus noticed the fire in our stare. Even though Zephyrus was nothing to do, but fun, he was an observant king. “I think not. You just love to glare at each other and then one will win and celebrate. A brother can’t be a mortal enemy, aren’t they?”
I watched the formation of a smirk on Hali’s lips. “For the first time in my life, I won at Pyro.”
“Wow! So you’re good at dodging now?” Zephyrus chuckled while he was playing with the beef on his fork, he was at the side of Raiden who was now drinking water.
“Nope.” The smirk at Hali’s lips broadens.”I’m a professional at stealing.”
I gritted my teeth, held the fork tight, and wanted to bury it into his throat to stop him from talking. I shut my mouth because I was not a man of full words, except when I was with Fira or if it was necessary to talk.
“You steal his arnis?” Colden asked with his innocent face.
Hali stared at my face with a teasing expression. I liked to cut those handsome lips of him so he could not smirk like that. That was the part of his body that he used to own my Fira.
Damn this man.
“Yeah.” His voice was soft. He raised the spoon, licked it with his naughty tongue. “I stole it with pleasure.”
I immediately stood up, buried the fork at the corner of his finger. I intentionally did not hit him exactly at the skin. “You’ll never be like me because you only know how to fight, but you have no brain.”
He stood up straight. Face to face with me while the table was in the middle of us.
“What scene is that! Sit down!” King Arealdo was now pissed off, but we did not care at all.
“If I don’t use strategy, I won’t get what you have.” He raised up his two eyebrows and gave me a huge smile. “it’s more fun… owning what’s not mine.”
I could not hold back. My closed fist landed on his cheek. Our brothers ran towards us. Raiden and Colding held my arms while Zephyrus was holding Hali’s shoulder. I was giggling in madness while removing the hands and wanting to attack Hali.
“Where did you learn how to be disrespectful!” King Arealdo’s palm touched my cheek with full force. “You disobeyed the rule! You’re not allowed to hurt your brother when you were not in the training!”
I waved my hands to ease the hold of Colden and Raiden. “Tell that to Hali, the bastard.” I left KIng Arealdo with an open mouth. I did not speak to him with no respect anymore, this was the first time.
“King Fire!” I heard him calling me, but I did not look back. I went to my room and locked it.
Fira and Hali’s betrayal of me was the most hurtful that I had experienced. They were both important to me and I would not handle this anymore.
I need fresh air.
