Alpha King of Fire

MY BEST FRIEND: ZEPHYRUS

FIRA’S POV

After watching the fireworks that Ember created, we decided to drink liquor since, in the Elemental Kingdom, we could not do this. In this world, we were just ordinary people who were having fun.

“Cheers for the new life, new world, new journey, new memories, new?” Zephyrus looked up to think, he hit Hali using his elbow. “Think about the next new.”

Hali just rose up the right corner of his lip. “New f*cker?”

“That’s not that!” He struck the nape of Hali.

“Whatever. Just toast.” Colden raised his glass containing the liquor. I had no idea what did it taste like. I just wanted to try.

Ember and Eira were in the room. Colden made sure that they were sleeping before we celebrated a new day in a different world. I was with the kings: Colden, Hali, Pyro, and Zephyrus. Raiden was not around.

“Seriously? How you make King Fire talk?” Zephyrus put his forefinger on his chin as he was asking me.

I gave him a wonderful smile. I was boastful when I shrugged my shoulder. “Maybe I’m too beautiful?”

Zephyrus laughed so hard. “Half true. When I was a kid, I think that’s five years old. Our father said that I have four brothers. I was so grateful to have them. I met Pyro and I thought he was mute. He didn’t even say a single word. Rember that, Pyro?” He looked up as if he was thinking what had exactly happened that day. “What I did was annoy him by telling random things about me. He seemed like the quiet environment.” Zephyrus stood up as if he was imitating what Pyro did to him. “Hey, if you can’t shut your mouth, just go away.”

Hali laughed at the expression of Zephyrus. The serious expression of Zephyrus was really not suited him. We were used to his face that always had a smile.

“I loved to tease Pyro, so I joined Zephyrus to irritate him. That was the first bonding that I had with him. I realized that my life was not that worst, but Pyro really had a bad time.” Hali blew his sigh while looking at Pyro. “Look at him, not talking again.”

Pyro just shook his head as he drank the content of his glass. “I just don’t feel like talking at times.”

“But when it comes to Fira?” Colden teased him by messing with his hair.

“Fira is an exemption.” He fixed his hair as he brushed it in a side direction.

“Wow! Goodness. I’m so envious of her!” Zephyrus went towards us. He sat in the lap of Pyro and kissed him on the cheek made everyone laugh concluding me. Pyro’s face was showing how disgusted he was.

“Get off!” Pyro was pushing him away, but Zephyrus was too nuts to be away from him. Perhaps he was annoying him because he was the kind of man who was always irritated when they were teasing him.

“Fira is an exemption? How about me? I love you so f*cking bad with all my heart, souls, and organs!” Zephyrus wrapped his arms around Pyro and placed his chin on his shoulder. He was like a flirty woman who was glued to him.

“Get the damn off my body or else?” Pyro glared at him with all of his annoyance.

“Or else what? You can’t hurt your handsome baby brother!” I would be going crazy by watching how Zephyrus was good at exasperating his brother.

Well, he is the youngest of all of them. Maybe that was why he was acting like a child.

“Just one kiss and I’ll go up!” Zephyrus pouted his lips and closed his eyes, waiting for Pyro to kiss him.

“You’re damn gross!” He was pushing him over and over again, but Zephyrus was too glued to him.

I love how they care about each other. If I have a brother, would we have the same relationship? I only have Eira and we are not naughty like them.

“Just kiss him, Zephyrus!” Hali was chuckling, covering his mouth with the glass of liquor.

Colden placed a slice of apple in front of Zephyrus. “You can kiss him by putting an apple in his mouth.”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good suggestion! You’re very smart, King Ice!” Zephyrus stood up, pick an apple, and situated it in the middle of his upper and lower lips. I thought he was going to do that to Pyro. I was in shock when he settled down on Colden’s lap. The laughter began to be loud as Zephyrus moved his face to Colden. Colden was not like Pyro he was laughing while hugging Zephyrus on his hips.

What a crap. They are jokers in a way that they made me happy.

Colden accepted the apple from the mouth of Zephyrus. It was so funny because Colden immediately grabbed a table napkin and wiped his lips. “You didn’t brush your teeth, did you?”

“You’re so mean. Of course, I did?” A grin formed his lips. “Last week.”

“Gross!” They all said. I could not breathe due to over happiness.

“You’re worst than me, Hali. I swear.” Zephyrus put another apple in his mouth. My eyes widened as he sat on my lap.

“Hey!” Pyro grabbed his arms as he pulled him up. Actually, Zephyrus was heavy and my thighs were aching in an instant.

“I’m gonna put this in the mouth of Fira if you didn’t let me do it to you!” Zephyrus threatened him. He was moving his face on me. I believed that he would not do that to me. In our years together, Zephyrus did not show any motif to me. “Did you know that I first like Fira?”

“What the damn you’re talking about? Give me that!” Pyro adjusted his sit and tapped his lap. “Go here or else I’m gonna kill you.” He glared at him while his forehead was knitted.

“Okay!” Zephyrus jumped to Pyro and placed the apple in his mouth.

“Gross! It’s like kissing you!” Pyro grabbed a table napkin and wiped his lips as Colden did a while ago.

“That’s fine, than me kissing Fira?” Zephyrus chuckled, he almost roll in the grass in so much laughing. It was too funny how Pyro reacted to that as if Zephyrus was a virus. “Anyway, going back to Fira. I’m serious. I had a crush on her before you met her.” His face became serious, but no one tried to believe him. Zephyrus mouth was 99 percent kidding. “It’s up to you if you believe it or not.”

Pyro cleared his throat. “Then why didn’t you court her?”

Really? He should disbelieve him. He was just kidding.

Zephyrus eyes came into a super uncommon expression of him. He gulped the content of his glass before talking. “I tried.” He stared at me. I gulped my saliva as I realized that his emotion was very rare in how he looked at me. “Looking back to the night that I summoned Fira. The omegas cleaned her一bathed her. I was about to take her, but?” He looked down and then gazed at the star. “She’s too afraid of me.”

I remembered that night. My head was thinking of him taking my virginity because he ordered them to make me extra beautiful. A king’s command should not be broken. The omega like me was having the only role of following their command.

“What makes your mind change?” Hali asked in a serious expression, too.

In an instant, the blow of air became cold and silent. Was this matter important for them? I mean, if that was true it has been not essential. The time had already passed.

“I卻aw the symbol of fire on her wrist.” Zephyrus grabbed the glass again and swallowed the alcohol. I thought that he was already drunk due to his small red eyes. “And I decided to just make her my friend. Fira is a good friend and I love her for being there for me when I needed her.”

The tears condensed in the corner of my eyes. I automatically stood up and hugged him from behind, enveloped my arms on his nape down to his chest. “No thanks, I’m the one who should be grateful for having you.”

In my peripheral vision. I could see Pyro’s stare. He was not glaring or mad or hurt. He was smiling at us.

The days with Zephyrus popped up in my head. There were so many times that he was down and worn out. I was there making him laugh, the same as how he made me laugh. Pyro did not know how I and Zephyrus were deeply best friends.

Real friendship can’t be bought.
