Alpha King of Fire

DOWN HIS KNEE

FIRA’S POV

The whole day, we played in the water. The moment was priceless to all of us even though at some moment, there was chaos due to Raiden and Adhira’s fight. Yes, Adhira was her, the Luna Queen. Aither also came after her work in the hospital. We were so many in the cottage, everyone was laughing and telling stories.

“Honestly, I met him in the school. He’s a stalker.” Aither was telling the story of where she first met Zephyrus.

Zephyrus was so shy even though it was not reflected in his face. He was averting his looks on us. “I’m handsome to be your stalker.”

“But you are!” Aither’s laugh could be heard.

That was how to conversation went through. I looked at my side, to the door. Raiden was looking in the side where was Adhira located. It was hard to deal with that kind of relationship. The on and off, fighting there, fighting here as if they were not lovers.

I stood up and moved closer to him. I would not expect that he would open to me immediately when I sat next to him in the white sand. Our feets were reached by the water.

“I’m so tired, Fira. I thought when we got married, all would be in order.” Raiden was looking down on his feet while hugging his knee.

“It’s not easy, but just make sure you’re always there for her.” The cold air touched my skin, that was why I embraced my shoulder.

“It’s cold here. You go back to Pyro.” He looked up at the twinkling stars in the dark sky.

“I’m okay. I just want here to relax. I’m so happy to be with the kings in their women in this place. The next day, you’re going to travel back to the Lightning Pack. By the way, how’s everything there?”

“As expected, the father is so livid, but we can handle that. He’s looking for Pyro and Colden, we got slashes.” He gazed at his back. I did not see anything like scars or marks of whipping. “Hali’s a good healer.”

“Yeah, he healed my back, too.”

A moment of silence. I only heard the waves of the ocean and the burbling of water plus the strong hit of air.

“How are you? Apology, I can’t make it to Eyrom’s Funeral.”

“No worries卨ittle by little, I’m getting better.”

I was startled when someone put a towel on my back. When I moved my head up, it was Pyro. “The air’s cold.”

I touched his hand that was on my shoulder. “Thanks, Dearest.”

“I’m glad for the both of you. You’re starting to see the never-ending happiness,” Raiden said with a chuckle.

“You seem devastated?” Pyro went in the middle of us. “Are you?”

“It’s always about my lady. She really doesn’t want to be a royal. She hates it, so much.” Raiden tapped his shoulder. “You’re lucky. You have Fira. Take care of each other!” He stood up and left us alone.

What was that? He just said a little information and then disappeared. I realized that he saw Adhira that was why he went to her.

“Things will get better to you and her! Just be patient!” Pyro shouted as Raiden was going far from us.

Pyro stared at my face. Those eyes were hook my heart and chained my heart in him. He was so freaking nice looking with his white jacket.

“Can we a walk? Shall we?” He offered me his hand.

I bit my lips as I prevented the spreading of happiness in my lips. “I’m in.” I grabbed his hand. Pyro closed it and made it intertwin.

We walked in the middle of the wonderful sky and sand that was piercing our feet. Our hands were bonded to each other as if there was no one who could make us separate.

“Pyro?”

“Yes, Dearest?”

“You look extra handsome with human clothes.”

“Really? You’re gonna see me in this look every day. So get ready to be crazy in me.”

“Am I not?” I paused walking. I moved up with my tiptoe and peck on his cheeks. I was about to move backward when I was done, but Pyro grabbed my waist and pulled me towards him.

Under the glittering, shimmering sky, he kissed me. He did it in front of the ocean’s waves, in the midst of these breathtaking landscapes. This was very unique.

He is so special. This moment is memorable.

We were both panting by the time we were finished. Our faces were painted with a smile. Our hearts were overflowing with joy.

Pyro cupped my cheek. He touched my forehead with his lips. “You’re my favorite person.” He kissed the peak of my nose. “You’re the fuel in my fire.” He kissed my right cheek. “You’re my sunshine.” He kissed my left cheek. “You’re the apple of my eyes.” Last was the peck on my lips. “You’re my universe.”

The tears welled up in my eyes. I chuckled when I realized something. “Of course, I am. You revived my life two times.”

He returned my chuckle and exuded happiness. “I can’t imagine living in a world without you.”

“Indeed!” I just teased him. “It was obvious that you’re into me.”

“Are you not?” Pyro asked back. By looking at his face, it was different from his old self. The Pyro who did not talk.

“It’s true that love changes a person without awareness.” I laid my head on his shoulder as we kept on walking.

“What exactly do you mean?”

“You’ve improved your communication abilities. You have become blabby.”

Pyro gazed at the moon. It was not full, just a half. The light was giving us brightness to let us see the breathtaking surrounding. “I just realized…”

“Realize what?”

“People aren’t always on our side always. They’ll go when the time comes, so we’ll have to express what’s on our minds so that?” He pressed our eyebrows together. “Someday, we’ll never regret not saying it.” He moved the strand of my hair blocking on my face. He placed it behind my ear.

“I have a dream, would you want to know?”

“Exactly!”

“My dream is to spend the rest of my life with you.” His voice was full of expressive emotions: Love, happiness, excitement, relief, and others.

I touched his both cheek, slammed our noses, and said my lines in a low tone. “It’s not a dream anymore. You’re living with it.”

The tears condensed in the corner of his eyes. He acted as if he was grabbing something in his pocket. “I don’t have a ring. For now, it’s imaginary.” His action was telling me he was opening a red box and there was a ring in it. He was down on his bended knee. “Marry me or I will marry you?”

“Both,” I answered while jumping. The sound of our laugh echoed in the place.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

There’s no way out in this magic of happiness. Yes, we may be far from the place we lived in for our entire life. Nevertheless, that would not chain our hearts from being happy.

Let out all the fear and worry. This is the beginning of greater life.
