Alpha King of Fire

I’LL BE YOUR KILLER

FIRA’S POV

Janus was about to enter. I could feel that thing poking at my back. A continuous knock on the door could be heard. I jumped in surprise when he punched the wall.

“Who’s that!” He shouted, staring sharply at the door.

“We are under attack!” Clero was screaming outside.

We both started as we looked at each other. The fear covered my chest. Janus hurried towards the door. “Where’s Ember?”

“In the?” My eyes widened. I left her in this room. I rushed towards the cabinet and looked for shorts, I put them on, and went out. “Ember!”

“Fira, if you find her, stay at the Master’s Bed Room. I’m going to get you there!” Janus held both of my cheeks and kissed my lips.

“We’ll wait for you.”

He just nodded and walked faster. I traveled to the whole house. “Ember, Love! Where are you!” I went to the kitchen, but she was not there. I could hear the continuous bombing outside, the sound of swords, the people screaming.

“Ember!” I walked to the living room. The silence was the only thing I found. The tears blurred my eyes. I was scared that they would get my baby. “Ember, Baby! It’s mommy!” I ran as fast as I could and went back to the room. The outside was so noisy, the attack was too loud to hear.

“Ember!” Behind the commotion, my ear filled with a little sound coming from the cabinet. I sobbed soundly as I walked closer to it. When I opened it, I had no hesitation to hug her. She was hiding there, hugging her knees.

“Shh! Baby, don’t cry.” I wiped the tears on her face. Even though the liquid was streaming on her face, she is still cute.

“I lied, Mama.”

“What? ” I kissed her on the forehead and brushed her hair. My body had never stopped shivering. There was a sigh of relief.

“I lied to King Fire.”

My eyes opened with surprise. Is it true that I heard his name from my child’s mouth?

“Huh?”

“When King Fire questioned me if Papa was hurting you, I told him I had no idea. But the truth is… Papa is always the source of your tears.” She leaned her head against my shoulder.

“You’re not lying, Love. You just keep your mouth shut.”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

I felt sorry for her. I could not believe that she witnessed how rude his father was to me. No matter how good came out from my mouth to say that he was a good man, she had knowledge of his cruelty, not just to me, but for his people.

“Fira!” The door burst open. Eira and my father were running to me.

“Go hurry! Escape at the window!” Dad lifted Ember on his arm.

“What’s happening?”

Eira looked at me with worry in her eyes. “Janus ordered us to get you and Ember. He said to seek help from the Elemental Kingdom.”

“What? Where is he? Will he follow us there?” I was about to look at the door, but she prevented me.

“There are rogue intruders, they’re so many and our force can’t defeat them. The only choice is to escape.”

We both stared at the door when we heard an executive hit it. We immediately rushed towards the window. The sounds of swords slamming into each other could be still heard.

Before I jumped on the window, someone held my hand. I was scared at first, but when I viewed that it was Janus, I hugged him so tight. I could now have a sigh of relief that he was here beside me.

“Fira?” He held both of my cheeks. “My wife, my Luna.” He kissed my forehead, my nose and last was to my lips.

“Let’s go.” I grabbed his hands tightly. He had plenty of bruises on his face, his shoulder was bleeding, her lips had wounds. In short, he was not in good condition.

He stared up. I watched the slowly crawling of the tears from his eyes down to his cheek. “I’m sorry for making all things difficult for you.” His voice was cracked. He bit his lips, glued our forehead. “Tell Ember that Papa loves her.”

“Why are you saying that?” I could not prevent myself from sobbing. It felt like he was saying his farewell. “No! You’re gonna join us! Please! Please listen to me, just for now! Let’s go!” I never removed my hand on his.

Someone was banging on the door, kicking it, or punching it, just to open it.

Janus shook his head, the reason why I cried so loud. I was stomping irritably. He lifted me, sitting on the window. “Go jump.”

“No! I’m not going to leave when you’re not with us!” I was begging for him, but the only response I got was a sniff and a moving of head from left to right.

Yes, he was sometimes harsh to me. He was hurting me physically, forcing me to do things that I did not like. However, I could not push him away from my heart. He had a spot, a small spot.

“In our four years as husband and wife卼hat was the happiest day of my life. When you were born our little Ember厀hen we laughed together, when we slept together. I will never feel my hatred of women again. Fira, keep in mind that?” He placed my hand on his chest. “You’re the moon in my pack.”

He moved his face closer to mine, kissing me gently. That was his first time kissing me with slow passionate moving. The liquid was dripping on my face. We were both crying at the moment.

He separated our faces, removed my tears using his thumb. I would never forget the words that he whisper in my ear. “I love you even if your heart doesn’t belong to me.”

After he said those lines, he pushed me, the reason why I changed into my wolf form just to be safe when I got down. I looked up at him. I was crying so bad.

“No! No!” I wanted to go up again and save him.

I saw with my bare eyes how Carter buried a sword on his chest. A small smile formed on Janus’ face. It felt like he was accepting his destiny in his hand.

I forgot that he was the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack. If tragedy happens, he needs to give his life when his werewolves die.

His people first, before himself.

“Janus!” I screamed so loud, in pain, hurting. My heart was choking.

“I love you, too?” I mouthed on him while watching how Carter hit him consecutively, the blood was dripping on his mouth.

“Papa!” Ember cried with her heart out.

Eira held my hand and pulled me away.

I thought I can withstand when I face the battle. Hali taught me everything that I needed to know. However, there are battles that we need to raise our hands and surrender. Not because we are weak, but we can’t do something about the situation.

Carter, when we meet again. I’ll be your killer.
