Chapter 141
I ALWAYS LOVE YOU
FIRA’S POV
“It hurts?” Zephyrus burned the tease by following Hali’s lines.
“Hi, Princess!” Hali had a friendly feature. He even waved his hand at Princess Ziraya. “How’s your mother?”
“She’s fine.” Her hands encircled on Pyro.
If things changed, this was one of the changes. Pyro and her looked super close unlike when In left the Elemental Kingdom. They were enemies even his brothers.
“So, the marriage will be continued?” Hali asked while peeking at me.
“Yes, hopefully, next week. I’ll ask King Oswald.” Princess Ziraya answered.
The emotion on Pyro’s face did not change. It was okay with him if they were going to marry each other. Well, I really do not care about this matter.
Then, why your heart is tightening?
It was not my control when Ember ran towards Pyro and hugged on his knee. “King Fire, I’m hungry.”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Oh? Who’s that cute kid?” The Princess’s smile faded when she was me coming. “What are you doing here?”
“She’s Fira’s daughter,” Pyro answered. He brought Ember in his arms. “Let’s eat then.”
It seemed like the mood of the Princess was ruined. She became silent while walking on the way towards the kitchen.

“Hey, Omega. How’s you and your husband?” Princess Ziraya’s right eyebrow went up.
“Don’t call her Omega, she’s now the Luna of the Red Moon Pack.” Zephyrus’s blabby mouth interrupted.
“Oh, apology, your majesty.” She sounded sarcastic.
“That’s fine.”
We were at the table. We were eating as Ember was kept telling us that she was hungry, so Pyro was the one who assisted her in eating.
“My husband died,” I said in a lower tone. The grief was on the tone of my voice.
She was surprised. “What? Why?”
“The Red Moon was attacked.” Pyro was the one who answered her. “Let’s just not talk about this.” He gazed at Ember who was now sniffing. Every time she heard his father, she became automatically sad.
“All right.” I was relieved when the Princess agreed to Pyro. We just silently ate.
When the night came, I took care of Ember. She was crying her heart out. She was repeating that she wanted to see her Papa. I had no idea what to do. At first, I called Dad and Eira, they played with them for a moment and when she remember again her father, she cried again. Until the kings except Pyro went to our room. They did everything just to make her stop sobbing, but they failed.
“Papa!” She sobbed so loud. The agony was on me as I was glancing at her.
“Love, please stop crying.” I hugged her so tight.
“Maybe she needs Pyro?” Zephyrus mouthed. Colden suddenly hit him using his elbow.
Ember stopped, she looked at the door and said, “King Fire!” She ran towards him, embraced his knee, and cried again to him.
What she told me last time popped in my head. She was feeling relief when she was hugging Pyro. Maybe that was why she went immediately when she saw him.
“Why does my little angel cry?” Pyro wiped her tears while hugging her so compactly.
“I’m missing Papa!” I was pity on her due to the exhaustion on her face.
“I can be your second papa.” Pyro sat her on the bed. He looked around. He was startled when he saw that everyone was present; his four brothers, Cass, Dad, and Eira. We were doing everything just to stop her, but nothing happened.
“I don’t want! I like Papa!” She was stomping her feet in the air, it was hanging on the bed.
“Don’t you happy about that? You have second papa, me.” He pointed at his face. “Third papa.” He pointed at Hali. “Fourth Papa and other two papas!”
We were all shocked when Ember chuckled. “I have many Papas!”
“Yes.” Pyro brushed her hair. “Tomorrow, we’re going to the city like what your Papa promised you.”
“Papa Janus?” Her cute voice asked. I moved closer to them to wipe her face with the wet rug. Her eyes were swollen due to over crying.
“Yup. Imagine that he’s with you using my presence.” Pyro kissed her on the forehead.
“Do you love me, King Fire?”
I was shocked. I could not move my body. I gazed at her for a bit longer and then went back to washing her face using the rug. My tears welled up. I could not take seeing my child in this kind of situation. It was breaking my heart.
“Yes. I am. I love you so much.” Pyro hugged her so tight that even I could feel the emotion that was radiating to him.
“Then you love Mama, too?”
I blinked two times, ensuring that I heard it loud and correct. Pyro stared at me with an unexplainable twinkle in his eyes. “I love you both.”
“Then, you’re leaving us? Right, King Fire?” Ember touched Pyro’s cheek. “Don’t you?”
Pyro averted his look at her. I was sure that he was not promising that he would not turn his back to us. When he got married to the Princess, everything would not be in order again. It was a start for him and for us.
He is the Alpha King of Fire.
Not my Dearest.
“Promise me!” Ember began to sob again. The tears streamed on her face as the second of crying. I had no choice, but to embrace her small body and join her to sob.
What did I do? I thought everything would be right when I married Janus. It worsens. It hurt my daughter’s feelings to the point that she had a trauma of someone might leave her once more.
I was startled, my eyes widened as he spoke.
“I’ll never leave you or your mother. She was the one who left me.”
The pain could be heard in his tone of voice. The silence filled the room. Only the sighing of Zephyrus was the only sound that could be heard.
“You promised me?” Ember showed him his little pinky finger. Pyro showed his ear-to-ear grin and intertwined their fingers.
“I acted.”
Ember embraced her once more. I wiped my tears as I viewed the happy faces of everyone. I hope that my daughter would be forever glad. It was ripping my chest when she was sad.
“Now, you should sleep.” Pyro lifted up and laid her on the bed. He covered her body with the comforter.
“Can you sleep here, King Fire?” She tapped her side.
Pyro gazed up at me and then glanced back at her. “Ask your Mama.”
“Mama! Can King Fire be allowed to sleep here? Please!” She glued her palm together while blinking her eyes cutely. “Please?”
“Ahm.” I scratched the peak of my nose and looked down. “Sure thing. But I’ll sleep on the couch.”
“No, Mama! The bed is wide. Here!” She pointed at her left side.”Second Papa is here.” She tapped her right side.
“Okay.” I was scratching my head. The shyness could be felt in my system. Sleeping with King Fire and Ember? That would be great, but a disaster as well. If Princess Ziraya knew, she would slap me so hard.
“Okay! I guess everyone is settled! Let’s f*cking sleep!” Zephyrus stretched his arm while opening his mouth. Raiden put his finger inside his mouth. “Pwe!” He spitted his saliva. “You’re gross!”
“Coming from you, huh?” Raiden hit his forehead using his finger. “Watch your mouth. Ember’s just 4 years old. She could imitate what you say.”
“Like f*ck you, King Lightning?”
We all widened our eyes when Ember said it as if that was a normal word to her. “Love, Crap! That’s a bad word!” I covered her mouth. She just chuckled cutely.
“I know, Mama. Papa told me about that when sometimes I heard him saying that line.” Ember chuckled again while she was holding my hand. “Love you, Mama!” I was touched when she stood up, leaned his knee on the bed, and kissed me on the cheek.
“I love you, too.” I kissed her back on the cheek.
She hang her feet on the bed, trying to reach the floor, that was why Pyro helped her to go down. She went to Dad and kissed him on the cheek. “I love you, Grandpap!”
She ran faster towards Eira, Colden, Raiden, Hali and she passed Zephyrus. She kissed them all while saying ‘I love you.’
“Where is my kiss?” Zephyrus acted as if his chest was in pain. He pointed his lips and then smiled at Ember.
“Hmm?” She held the side of her forehead as if she was hesitating. “I’ll think.”
The laughter covered the room. Zephyrus looked so sad. I knew that he was just joking. He even fakes his wiping tears.
“Just kidding!” Ember climbed up on him and then kissed him plenty of times. “I love you, King Wind!”
“I love you more!” Zephyrus smack her a lot on the cheek. That made her tickle. The sound of her cute chuckle could be heard.
When she was done to him. She ran and wrapped her hands on King Fire. “I love you, Papa!” She touched her cheek with her lips.
I watched the formation of a small smile on Pyro’s lips with a taste of tears at the corner of his eyes.
“I always love you,” Pyro answered back.
