FIRA’S COMFORT SKILLContent provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
FIRA’S POV
While organizing the bed I heard a knock, so I walked faster to open the door. I was surprised when Pyro immediately hugged me from the moment he viewed me.
“Pyro?” I was hesitating if I would touch his back to comfort him. He was not crying, but the sadness was radiating to his gesture. “Are you okay?”
He stepped backward, and stared at my face with black expression. “Join me in my room.”
“But? I looked at my back, at Ember. She was a bit drowsy, tapping her side while closing and opening her eyes.
“I’ll order Cass to take care of her.”
There she was, Cass was behind him which I did not notice. Cass waved her hands on me. I gave her a full smile.
“Okay?” There was confusion in my face.
Why would I join King Fire in his room? The whole night? Where is the Princess?
I followed Pyro. I was walking near his back, traveling in the wide hallway of the kingdom, and going to the Fire’s Chamber. I did not ask or burst out my blabby mouth. King Fire seemed to not be in his mood.
When we arrived, Princess Ziraya was inside. She was wearing her robe. She came from the bathroom, fixing her hair with a towel while swaying her hips happily. In contrast, when her eyes laid on me, her smile vanished. “What’s the meaning of this?”
“Move out.” Pyro simply spoke.
“What? King Fire, the proposal’s finished. Why did you bring your mistress to-”
“Should I repeat what I said?” King Fire glared at him with the deadliest look ever.
Princess Ziraya widened her eyes while the shake was occurring in her body. She was scared of him. I was sure of that.
“Fine.” She nodded her head. “Just for tonight. When we are married you can’t take that wh*re to this-”
“I said move out!” Pyro shouted.
I almost jumped due to startling. I gasped for air to relax myself.
He is too mad. He would not scream if he was not. Crap.
I looked down when Princess Ziraya passed by. Even if I was not glancing at her, I could see in my peripheral vision the sharpness of her look on me.
When the door creaked and shut, the silence filled the whole room. My mind was not clear about what should be my approach to him. The Pyro now was not like the Pyro yesterday. Even though I was wholeheartedly aware of his attitude, we could not change the fact that there was a discovery of personality even after a long companionship with each other.
Pyro glanced at me. “What if I tell you I’m so devastated today, what would you do?”
I could not move. It felt like my feet were glued to where I was standing.
Does he want me to comfort him?
The madness that I was seeing in him a few seconds before had gone. It turned into sadness. “Why, what happened?”
I stepped forward even though my knee was trembling in fear. I was afraid that he might shout at me. Although he would not do that in this situation.
I cupped his cheek, staring up at him while tip-toeing a bit. “What makes your eyes sad?” I gazed at his handsome beautiful eyes that captivated my heart.
“I’m asking you. What would you do if-” He paused talking when I tip-toed more and pecked on his lips.
“Does that kiss make the heaviness in your chest decrease?” My voice was sweet and low.
He sniffed, preventing the emotion from bursting out. “I want more.”
My eyes bulged. He wants more? Is he pointing to making love?
I gulped my saliva while holding the tension that was living inside my chest.
“I can’t-”
“You can’t? Or you just don’t want to because you still keep thinking of Janus? He’s dead and dead won’t stand up to show up and be a ghost.”
I gazed down, viewing the ground. He was half right and half wrong. The silence covered the area.
He blew a sound of sigh and then went to the bed. “I have a sister. Not just a damn sister. She’s my twin.”
I moved my head up with my mouth parted. “What?”
“You heard it right. And that freaking old man killed her from the moment she was born. How cruel he is.”
“What?” I was moving my head to the right and left. “Wait.” I could not absorb his words. I gave a second to myself to put it all in my head before talking again. “No way!” I covered my mouth with my hands.
I am low gets. I know. But at least I comprehend before Pyro gets bored of me.
“Yes way.” He laid in a side position, making me face his back. “I don’t know what to think. I need to take this away in my head or else it will consume me.”
I slowly walked towards him. Scared of creating a sound of my footsteps. “What do you want me to do?”
“I don’t know.” He moved, facing me. He pulled my hand towards him, the reason why I laid next to him. “I can’t forgive him, Fira. That’s my damn sister. For sure, Mom didn’t know about that.”
By staring at his eyes, there were so many emotions: sad, mad, afraid and others. I did not want him to face those.
It hurts me.
“I’ll? Pyro blew a sigh. “I’ll marry Princess Ziraya.”
I felt like my vocal cord was destroyed due to being unable to talk. My chest was ripping into small pieces.
The hush covered the room. No one tried to talk for a second. Then, I realized if he was going to marry the Princess, definitely, there was a possibility that I and Ember would not be his priority.
I need to think about making this moment special. Also, to ease the heaviness in his chest about her sister.
“Pyro?”
“Hmm?”
“You’re asking what can I do when you told me that you’re devastated today.” I moved my body up.
He was surprised when I sat on his belly and then went down to the lower portion of his body.
“I don’t know how to do this but? I scratched my head. “I’ll try.”
“Try, what?” The shock was still on his handsome face.
“Grind? Is that what they called it?”
A smirk formed on Pyro’s lips. “Yes. Is that Fira’s comfort skill?”
A shy playful smile grew on my lips. “Watch and feel.” I brought down my body on him and kissed him hard.
