Chapter 142
FOUR YEARS, STILL YOU
FIRA’S POV
The Kings went out of the room. Dad and Eira kissed my forehead before they left. The awkward between me and Pyro was in the atmosphere. He was humming like a bird while stroking Ember’s hair. Imagine how brave he was, how handsome and cold he was and yet he could sing a lullaby just to make Ember slept. He was effective, and a few minutes later, she fell asleep.
I walked closer to the cabinet and prepared my clothes. I came from a tiring day, I could not go to be with a sticky body. I left him on the bed with Ember’s snoring. She was deeply sleeping.
I looked at the mirror before I grabbed my toothbrush, cleaned my teeth, and opened the faucet at the bathtub afterward. When I saw that it was full. I slowly took off all my coverings including my underthings. Suddenly, the towel drooped on the floor, so I bent down.
When I stood up again, my eyes touched the mirror. I almost jumped when I saw Pyro at the reflection of it. My eyes bulged in shock. I covered my breast and lower portion. “Pyro?”
I forgot to lock the door. I did not think that he would go inside. “What are you一”
“Shh.” I could feel his hot breath on my back, soothing my heart. “You’re noisy. Ember is sleeping.”
My grip on my chest tightened as he stared intensely at my face. He was located at my back, while I was standing in front of the sink. We were talking using the reflection of the mirror.
“Get out.” I had no courage to move. I was just covering my body.
What the crap he is doing?
“I’m the Alpha King of Fire. You can’t order. I’ll order.” He emphasized the last words.
I gasped for air as he traced from my shoulder, down to my spine using his forefinger. “Your glow is like a star. Although卛t’s far, I can see it.”
“Pyro, don’t do this. My husband just die一”
“You’re mine from the start.” He leaned his face on my shoulder. I felt the touch of cold air in my body.
“Please, leave me alone. I’m going to bathe and Ember might awake.” I froze to where I was standing. Even though I was telling him to leave me my heart did not want.
“You mean, our child?” He whispered.
I had difficulty breathing as his warm breathe sensed in my ear. My chest moved up and down as the tension intensified. “Why are you hiding for? I saw it.”
He gently held my hand and slowly removed it.
“Pyro, please go outside!” I was gritting my teeth. I was pulling all my temper together to not ride with his flirting. “My husband is died for about a week. I don’t want to cheat on him, so please?”
He glared at me in the mirror. I could see the exposing mad on his expression. “You marry him even if you are pregnant with my child?”
“That’s for the sake of all.”
“You think, I can’t protect you and your family?”
I faced him. It did not matter if he was viewing my nudity. “I begged for you countless times to save my father! What did you do? You let him stay there!”
“Because your father didn’t want to go out. He told me that if he would be free again, he would just see the beauty outside. When in fact, the beauty should only be felt with your mother’s side.”
My forehead furrow. I was confused. He tried to escape him, but he did not agree?
“I staked my life, my position, my power, my element just to walk in the coldest night and convinced him to go out. There’s nothing I could do.”
“What? Is that true?” The tears gradually rolled on my cheek.
“Am I a liar now? You’re the卨iar, Fira. You said you don’t love me during the night you left. You said I do to him even though your heart beats for me.” I could see the controlling madness in the depths of his eyes. “You never wait for me to come. You never think of me. You never fight for us!”
I shook my head as if it could lessen the sob that was echoing in the bathroom. “I waited. You’re late.”
The shock could be seen on his face. “You, what?”
“I waited and waited for you to get me. Four years had passed and yet you didn’t bother to pursue me.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
He chuckled sarcastically while moving his head to left and right. “You turned your back on me, Fira. You became the Luna of Red Moon Pack. You carried my child and yet didn’t tell me. That’s all your choice, not mine. What do you want me to do? To always please you?” He facepalmed with annoyance. “I’m one of the kings. I have a responsibility and duty to fulfill. My life will not only revolve around you!”
It was like a slap on my face. I was so demanding about our relationship. I forgot the other thing that he would focus on. For the first time, he raised his voice on me.
“Sorry.” I grabbed my pink towel and wrapped it around my body. I removed my tears while opening the door. “You just leave. I’m gonna clean my body.”
The irritation was written on his emotion. I thought he would go out, but he shut the door instead and locked it. “I’ll punish you.”
I clenched my jaw as I watched him take off his clothes one by one. “Pyro, are you deaf? Get the crap out of the bathroom! If Ember sees us here, it might confuse her.”
“You brought confusion into her mind. If only you tell her who’s her real father then, you’re not gonna face headache now.”
“Just leave!” The tension was intensifying as he showed me the hard thing inside his pants.
Crap. I’m in trouble.
He traveled our distance and kissed me passionately. He paused, gazed, and cupped my face. “I can’t be mad at you.” he pulled me closer to him until our bodies were glued together. “Four years, still you.”
