Chapter 204
SHOCKING 101
FIRA’S POV
“Pyro! You’re so annoying!” I was glaring at Pyro. He was looking at me while he was playing with Ember. I found it so irritating. I had no idea why.
“What? Dearest, I’m not doing anything.” The furrow in his eyebrow formed.
“Do not look at me!”
“Is that so?” His smile was annoying the hell out of me. I stood up and marched away from him.
“Dearest!” I could hear him calling me. I did not even bother to look at him.
It has been a week since they gave us permission. I could feel the peace everywhere I walked. They were lowering their heads at me.
Once upon a time, I was dreaming to feel the sensation of being a royal even though my blood was still low born. My children would be a different story because they would live as a royal like their father.
Speaking of children, I did not yet go to the doctor to check if I am pregnant or what. I was longing to see Zephyrus. He was not at the Elemental Kingdom for a few days now. Maybe at his office.
“Dearest, what’s the problem?” Pyro held my upper arm, gazed at me with the worry in the depths of his eyes. “What?” His two eyebrows rose up.
“I want to go to the city.”
“Huh? What? Why?”
“You don’t want me to go! Okay! I’m gonna go on my own!” I marched away from him.
“Damn.” Pyro followed me until we reached the front yard.
“Guards, a carriage. Please. And please bring Ember here.” He held my hand and pulled me closer to him. “I think we need a doctor.”
“I’m not crazy!” I was completely irritated. What makes him think that I am crazy! I want to kick his tits!
“Dearest, I’m not telling you’re crazy.” He chuckled as he covered his mouth. Before, I found it super handsome, but now, it was boiling the hell out of my nerves!
“Then what?” I placed my hands at my waist and stood straightly in front of him, threatening him with my glare.
“Our baby should be checked all the time.” He winked at me before dragging me towards the carriage. The guards put Ember inside it.
Maybe I am pregnant? Oh, crap. It is difficult to give birth.
I sealed my mouth as we traveled, going to the city. Ember was looking at the window. She was on the lap of Pyro, they were gazing at the yellow butterflies that were flying outside.
“Wow! Can I take care of them, Papa?” Ember was waving her hand outside of the window.
The true happiness could be seen in her smile. Pyro held the hand of Ember. I was startled when he put it on my belly. “Did you hear your brother?”
Her little eyes widened. “Crap! Seriously?”
I was in shock when he said that word. I had the face palmed as Pyro was chuckling. She was in the stage of imitation. She was so cute when she said that.
“I’m so so so happy! I’m so so so happy!” She was jumping as she was repeating those lines. She kissed the cheek of Pyro and then my cheek. We were not yet sure, but I felt like we had a little one.
Not just an ordinary one. The heir of the Alpha King of Fire.
When we arrived at the bottom of the mountain. Obviously, the carriage should not continue in the Human World, so we just got down. We walked a little bit. Ember was in our middle as we were both holding her hand.
“Can I eat ice cream?” Ember gazed up at his father.
“May I see your teeth?”
Ember made an ‘ih’ to show him. “Oh, damn.” Pyro covered his nose. “Your breath is stinky.”
“I’m not! Mama, can you smell it?”
I was chuckling when I moved down. Pyro was just kidding her. It smelled like a baby mouth.
“I brushed my teeth in the morning.” Ember’s lips pouted.
“Okay, fine. But we’ll go to the dentist. You have a plaque.”
We rode a taxi, going to the company of Zephyrus. He was a hardworking man in this world. Anyways, he was planning to live here, but his father was protesting. He had a Wind Pack to protect.
We got down at the corner of the road. There was a stoplight in the middle and a white lane. The three of us stood beside and waited for the stoplight.
“Uncle!” Ember waved her hand. So do I. Zephyrus was at the opposite side. He had a big smile with his hand over the head, waving it in the air.
It felt like my world was destroyed when Ember ran towards him with the car running faster. She ran so quickly. I could not move immediately. Pyro followed her, but Zephyrus was the one who picked her. He pushed Pyro and ember in the side and…
The last thing I saw was darkness. Zephyrus was hit by the car. I witnessed how he threw in the air, rolled at the roof of the car and then dropped on the ground.
“Zephyrus!” I could not breathe as his name choed in the entire place. I took a lot of air and blew it out. I was blinking my eyes as I was hoping that this was just a dream. My body was trembling as I was walking towards Zephyrus. He was laying on the ground, full of bruises, bathing in his own blood, fighting to get air.
“Zep!” It was Aither. She was sobbing so bad as she dropped her knee and grabbed Zephyrus’ head.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Zephyrus! Zephyrus!” The panic at the expression of Pyro could be seen. “Damn you! Why did you do that!”
I slowly sat down next to him. I held his right hand as the left was on Aither. “Zephyrus…” That was just a blow of air. I could not find the voice.
“I’m…” Zephyrus coughed. The blood spilled from his mouth. “I’m…fine.” He was opening and closing his eyes.
“Damn! Don’t close your freaking eyes!” Pyro lifted him in his arms. He was a bit heavy so the other people helped him.
“King Wind…” Ember was in the middle of the shock. She was absorbing what was happening.
I blinked two times as the darkness was consuming me until I could not hold it anymore.
I collapsed.
