Alpha King of Fire

CARTER

FIRA’S POV

“Fira! Carter needs you.” Saza called me while I was cleaning the table in the kitchen.

“Huh? Why?” I bit my lips. That was supposed to be my thoughts, but it went out.

Crap. Sometimes my blabby mouth harms me.

“Do Omega give permission to ask, huh!” She stepped slowly to me, causing me to move away. I was trembling when I had no space at my back.

“Sorry, Madame.”

“Make it fast! The miners are hungry!” Saza pushed my back. I almost fell on the ground. Fortunately, I held on to the corner of the table to support my balance. “Faster!”

I ran towards the hallway, going to the carpeted front yard. I saw a man standing in front of the cart of coffee.

“You must be, Fira.” I watched the formation with the grin on his lips.

“Yes.” My voice was stuttering.

Janus said that this man named Carter was selling the foods when in fact, that was free. I wanted to say that to King Fire, but every time I was there, I forgot. It was just we had plenty to talk about, especially about my father.

He stared at my face, down to my chest and to my curves. I could feel that what he did was rude. Looking at my body with the smirk on his face.

I gasped for air. I felt uncomfortable with this man. My chest pumped in nervousness. I wished King Fire summoned me or what.

“Come here, Fira. Help me to move this cart.” The grin on his lips did not disappear.

I was grabbing an air and blowing it out while stepping towards him. Luckily, the mining area was just a step away from the kingdom. We would not walk to the place where we were just alone. The guard would still see us.

“You must be young. How old are you?” Carter moved closer to my cheek. He almost smelled my natural scent. I gently stepped aside to step away from him.

“Ahm…” I cleared my throat. I managed not to tremble. The cold sweat in the corner of my forehead was gradually producing. “I’m seventeen.”

“Too young!” His smirk formed a wide smile. He was staring at my chest. I wanted to hide it from him, even though I had clothes.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

I’m scared. Crap.

The tears in the side of my eyes were peeping. I just pretended that I was not affected by the way he stared at me.

“You don’t yet meet your wolf form, do you?” He held the holder of the cart. He intentionally put his hands at the back of my hand that was holding on the cart. I simply removed that by moving aside.

“Yes.” I answered shortly. I managed to say that without shaking, but I failed. My fear came out to my expression.

“Oh, that’s what I like. Shaking.” He moved closer and closer to me, smelling my scent as if he was absorbing all of my natural aroma in the body. “You smell good, Fira. I wonder what does it taste to be inside of-”

“Fira!” Janus marched towards us and grabbed my hand. “I have something to tell you.”

A sigh of relief came out of my mouth. I knew that Janus could see the way I shook my body. He knew that something was happening.

“Go away, Miner! We’ll bring the food to you! You have no coins, don’t you?” Carter glared at Janus. He looked down to our hands that were now holding.

I am so afraid of him and if Janus did not come, this guy might have molested me or what! Crap.

“I have coins today. Bring me coffee and bread.” Janus put the coins in his hand.

My hold to him tightened. I do not want to be alone with Carter.

I could see the worry on Janus’ face, that was why he did not let his eyes out of me.

“Is he your boyfriend, Omega?” Carter whispered as he glared at Janus who was now working, but his eyes were on us.

He must have heard Carner that was why he stepped closer to us. “Yes. I am. Is there anything wrong?”

Carter gritted his teeth. He recklessly grabbed the cup of coffee and gave it to one of the miners. “You two are not yet married. I can share.” Carter gave Janus an evil smirk.

Every time he was doing that smirk, I was trembling. His face said something that if he got a chance, he would harm me.

Should I tell King Fire? He is the only person that I can talk to about this. He can help me.

“Give me the money!” Carter shouted at one of the miners.

“Last time when Fira brought the food, it’s definitely free! Why does it have a price now?” The miner protested.

I wanted to answer him, but I had no strength to do that. I was too scared to fight Carter.

“Change is the only constant thing will happen, *sshole! So give me the money and get out of my front if you don’t want me to kick your face, m*therf*cker!” Carter gave him a salute middle finger.

By that, I was shaken more. I have never been scared like this to anyone.

“Oh, come on, Janus! Don’t put yourself around Fira. You’re not always there for her, *sshole.” The evil grin gradually formed on his lips.

“Really? Then try to hurt her. Your grave is always ready.” He tightened the hold to the shovel as if anytime he could hit him with that.

“Brave, but young.” He messed up his hair recklessly. “Drink milk first, Child.”

He laughed so loud with the mix of evil and then he stopped, looked at me. He licked his upper and lower lips.

Janus grabbed my hand and intertwined it. “Take care.”

“Thank you.” The tears welled up in my eyes. He immediately wiped it with his thumb.

“Don’t show him you’re scared. You’re just giving him strength to hurt you.”

I nodded. I clenched our hands. This time, it was compact. I did not mind if they were thinking that we were a couple. That was better than giving assurance to this Carter that I was just alone and vulnerable.

I am not alone. I am brave and strong. If he does something bad to me, I will fight to death.

After giving breakfast to all of them, we walked back to the Elemental Kingdom. Janus joined us, causing relaxation to me. I hoped that he was always here for me.

“Say goodbye to Fira, Janus. You’re not allowed to go inside the kingdom unless the royal calls you.” A grin was visible again on his face.

Janus looked at me with worry on his expression.

“I’ll be fine,” I said when I saw the he wanted to say something. “Promise.”

He nodded with frustration and blew a sigh. “Is King Fire inside? You’re assigned to him right? Go back to his room. I remembered he summoned you.” Janus’ voice was loud, making sure that Carter would hear that.

“Yes. Thank you for the reminder, Honey,” I said to make it not obvious.

“Go faster, Honey.” Janus removed my hand. “Take care of yourself.”

I gasped for air when I felt my chest pumped in happiness. He said those lines two times this morning. It filled my heart with gladness.

“You, too.”

I bowed to Carter and strongly said. “King Fire summoned me. Sorry I can’t walk with you in the kitchen.”

“Fine,” Carter answered. “We’ll see each other tomorrow.”

An evil smirk grew on his lips, causing my body to shake in dread.
