Chapter 84
KING FIRE’S IMPRINTED MATE
FIRA’S POV
“You’re making me so livid! Why did you touch my waist!” My anger was not calming down. I ran again to attack him and kicked his balls.
“F*ck!” He bit his lips and was trying not to touch the middle part of his body. I saw the gritting of his teeth. He was dealing with so much pain right now. “Good job.” He said in a low tone.
I watched him with a smile on my lips. If only I could know like that, I must beat Carter when he tried to take advantage of me. If Carter goes closer to me again, I will do my best to fight without any hesitation or dread.
Hali went up when he recovered. He sat on the big rock and put down the arnis. I was looking at him, waiting for his command, but he said nothing. That was why I sat beside him.
“Your moves are good, but too weak,” he said in a soft voice. “Sorry for wrapping your waist. I’m just trying to know your reaction. You react defensively to your body, that means you don’t want others to touch you.”
“Of course. Crap! Who’ll be the woman who wants to be touched by different men?” I grabbed the bottle of water that Zephyrus brought me.
“The celebration of our birthday is tomorrow so you need to prepare for that. We don’t need to overwork tonight.”
I nodded with a smile on my lips. I stretched my hands, giving him the bottle of water. I was expecting him to ignore it or maybe not accept it because I already had saliva there, but I was wrong. He held it and drank straight.
“Kicking balls is one of the weaknesses of men, but don’t do that to me. I’m king, I need a seed to have a child,” he chuckled with the coolness he had. If Zephyrus was chuckling, it was cute, but when it was Hali, he was manly.
“Okay, noted.” I looked up at the dark sky. There were a few stars and the moon was not there. The night was faded unlike when I and Pyro went here, the beauty was fully exposed.
The silence filled the whole area. We were purely resting. They could still feel the panting, the fast beating of my heart due to exhaustion.
“Wanna know about Plan B?” He broke the silence. He held a small rock and threw it to the cliff. “Even if Pyro will go far from us. That is better than staying here with his unhappiness.”
“What do you mean?” I grabbed my shoulder as I felt the burning sensation in it. The ache was all over my body, especially my cheek. It was so painful, as if I needed herbs right now.
“Are you going with him anywhere? And live a happy normal life?”
I opened my mouth. I was trying to say that I would think about that. I did not want to leave my sister and I could not still see my father. I was minding my family although I wanted to be with the King Fire for the rest of my life. There was a lot to consider
“The Battle of the Queen will take so long before it is held. You have no time so we are planning to take you and Pyro together to the city. You can live there peacefully.”
“Why is it such a big deal to all of you that me and Pyro are together?” My eyebrows formed waves. I was just curious why they were doing their best for the two of us when in fact, we both were not sure if we loved each other or just a simple infatuation.
“Because…” He grabbed my hand and showed me my wrist. “He imprinted on you.”
My eyes widened when I saw that the symbol of fire was obviously seen unlike before. I was not yet accepting it so why the crap it had engraved deeply as if it did not want to go away?
“That’s not an issue. Really.” He emphasized the word really. He shook his head with disbelief and then spoke again. “That shouldn’t be, but Pyro imprinted on you for you to live and he promised to the Fire element that he would never leave your side.”
“What?” My mouth was barely opened with my eyes bigger. “Wait. Crap! Why?”
“I don’t know. Better ask him.”
“Imprinted? That means, he put this on me? It’s not an accident?”
“No.” Hali held another rock again and then threw it somewhere again. “The Alpha King can only choose where to give the symbol.”
“But it says that he can give the symbol to anyone? As many as he can?”
“That’s true.” Hali bit his lips and then played with his arnis, spinning around. “The problem… Pyro gives words that he can only mark one mate. He can’t get back his curse to the fire element or else it can control him and the monster would be the master. That’s dangerous.”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“So… I’m only for him? Our bonding as a mate would not be changed?”
“Yup. You two are destined to be together. Whether you like it or not.”
My brain was overloaded with information that he was feeding me. I closed my eyes and remembered our first meeting. King Fire seemed not to care about me that time. Maybe something happened, resulting in him granting the symbol to me. My mother died. My life was in danger, but I woke up after a day. I was pretty sure that I died, but when I opened my eyes, I was not so sure what really happened. I only remembered my savior, which was him. When I saw him again at the front yard of the Elemental Kingdom. I was unaware that he was the Alpha King of Fire and then the next day, I was assigned to him.
Was it all something to do with him? Or the symbol? Or destiny?
Crap. I don’t want to think heavily.
“Fira, lately, the monster of the Fire is showing up because Pyro doesn’t own you. You need to accept the symbol or else the Alpha King of Fire will lose himself. His wolf form can be as bad as we don’t expect. You need to help him fight that evil.” He blew a loud sigh. “Pyro is the strongest. He can control that since then, but when he gave his symbol to you. You are the only person who can calm it.”
“Why? Wait! I can’t understand.”
“You’re tied to him. His monster can only follow you. He dominates you.”
In an instant, fear crawled all over my body. I thought that the King Fire would never harm me. Ever in my life.
“You need to prepare yourself for his owning. Pyro has no authority over it. He can hurt you without him knowing.” The worry filled Hali’s eyes. “I thought that the monster of Colden is the baddest among us all. Sh*t! Pyro’s evil is the most.”
“That evil only wants me?” The fear was living in my chest. Pyro never was aggressive to me, but monsters could be.
“Only you. It won’t satisfy.”
“Not Satisfy?” I gulped my saliva. I was not sure what was the meaning of that.
“It can get whatever it wants to you even if you have nothing to give.”
