Chapter 22
FIGHTING BACK TO THE BETAS
FIRA’S POV
Because I am Fira? What kind of answer is that?
He left me hanging, finding the answer to his lines. We were just talking about calling him by his name and it went deeper than I ever expected. That was just a name! Crappy. Nothing more, but it gave me a headache thinking about the hidden meaning in his words.
Crap! I should not think about that. I had lots of things to do for today. Saza gave me a mind blowing task that was why I woke up early. I needed to prepare breakfast for the whole mining worker.
I sighed in frustration when my father came into my mind. I still have not gotten any news about him. He was not yet home. I was hoping that he was fine and just drowning himself in work. I wondered what his struggle was when mom died. I would find out since I was going to the mining area to give them food. I hoped my father was there.
Cass helped me to grab a cart and put their breakfast. The coffee was sealed carefully.
When we were done preparing, we immediately walked outside.
“Hey, Omegas!”
That familiar voice filled my ear. I looked at my back and saw the Rainbow Sisters: Lina, Jina and Hina.
Hina smirked when she approached me. Cass was just looking at her with the wrinkling forehead.
“We heard that you are now assigned to the royalty? Specifically King Fire? How’s your stay?” Hina sounded nice, but it would never be good, no matter what sounds she played.
“Oh? Maybe she flirts with him?” Lina had a fire look on me.
“Let us walk peacefully, please. The miners are waiting for their breakfast.” I was about to pass them when Jina blocked my way. “Does she flirt with King Fire? Or King Wind?”
“Or both?” Hina and Lina said that, then, they laughed so hard.
“For sure she lost her virginity, she is now a wh*re just to make her rank high.” Lina emphasized those crazy lines.
Cass was about to fight back, but I grabbed her arms and whispered. “They are Betas.” By that statement, Cass knew about the rules.
If we fight with the beta, we would probably be punished because they are in a higher rank than us. The court will always believe them.
Jina moved closer to me, her mouth was on my ear. “Your friend is a freak like you.”
I held my skirt and crumbled it tightly. When they were saying bad things to me, that was fine, but if they involved the people around me, that would never be good. That made my blood boil into its highest temperature.
Calm down, Fira. Calm down. They are just teasing you. Your life will be ruined if you cut your temper with nonsense.
“You are mad?” Lina smirked like an evil monster. “How about talking about your mother? They died in front of you because you did not do something-”
“Stop.” My voice was in a low tone, holding my patience.
“She died because you are-”
“Stop.”
“You are weak. That even the hun-”
“I said stop!” In my entire life, I never looked at her with the fire in my eyes. This time, I was giggling. I wanted to squeeze his face until it bled. I wanted to punch them and kick them, but how? How? If I am just omega.
The lowest of all ranks, excluding the Slaves. I can’t even protect my mother when she is already in front of me. Dying.
“Did you shout at her?” Jina moved closer to me. Face to face.
I moved my chin up and showed her how angry I was. “What if I am? What will you do?”
She gritted her teeth. “I will report you to the cou-”
“Do you know who is the true coward here?” I stepped one towards her. “You.” I looked at Lina. “And you.” Then, my eyes went to Hina. “You.”
I folded my arms and showed them that I would not let him win today. “You are Betas? But I can’t see that in your attitude.” I paused. “Yes.” I nodded in sarcasm. “Yes, you are called beta, but the way you act is like a slave who is good at doing bad things.”
They were about to slap or hit me when I looked at their backs. I waved my hands. “Hi, King Fire.” A smile formed on my lips.
I could see the pale on their faces when they looked back, their bodies trembling.
“Your majesty!” They bowed to him.
Pyro’s attention was not on them, he was straightly looking at me without emotion. His eyes looked down on my cart. “Go to my room after your duty.”
“I will, your majesty.” I bowed to him. Then, he passed us. I was about to walk when he spoke again.
“Bring medicines for pain relievers. Ask King Lightning.” He did not look at me. I was just viewing his back.
“I keep that in mind, your highness.” A smirk formed on my lips when I looked at the Rainbow Sisters. They were now giggling in anger.
“You bewitched him.” Lina said before walking away.
“I will get back to you.” Jina pointed at me. I looked at King Fire’s back, she followed it, then she walked away like a coward b*tch.
Hina just glared at me before she followed her sisters.
“Oh, gosh, Fira! I can’t breathe while watching the scenes! I am proud of you, you handled them well, but be careful next time. They might do something to ruin you badly!” Cass finally spelled out her lines. She had a sigh of relief. “Do they bully you always?”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“Yes. Since I was young. I never fight back, but they are irritating me. I have no idea why they are angry at me.”
We both look, going to the miners.
“Maybe they are envying you. You are beautiful, have porcelain skin, and an attractive face even if you are just omega. How about them? They looked like slaves. Their faces are horrible. No one would love them.”
I covered my mouth to burst in chuckle. Cass was telling that as if she was about to vomit by just remembering their faces. How rude it was.
“But, Fira.” Cass held my shoulders. “I am telling you. Be careful in everything you do. The destiny will not always agree with you.”
I keep that in mind.
