THE VERY SPECIAL PART
HALI'S POV
"Happy birthday."
When I opened the door of my chamber, the first person I saw was my mother.
"Mother…" I hurried towards her and hugged her so freaking tight.
She disappeared for a long time. Rumor said she already died. To see is to believe, therefore I knew she did not.
"I'm so sorry, Son." She tapped my back over and over again as she cried on my shoulder.
Yes. Queen Haliana never was a good mother to me, but in spite of that, I never stopped hoping that I could correctly interpret the spark in her eyes every time she gazed at me. Possibly her past was too heavy to handle and to eliminate the ache, she thought of unloving me.
I understand and I forgave her.
"Happy Birthday, Father." Kheros came closer to me and tapped my back.
I gazed my eyes to my twins: Talise and Theron. "Can't you go near me and greet me?"
They hurried toward me and hugged me so tight that I could not breathe. "I love you, Papa!" Talise has always been a sweet girl. She kissed me repeatedly on my cheek as Theron was just looking with his knitted forehead and folded arm.
"She just wants to ask you, Papa, that's why she's sweet. She wants to go to the Human World with Kheros." Theron annoyingly said.
"It's not yet Freedom Day." I messed up Talise's hair. I placed my hand on the top of Kheros. I had no knowledge why my son had gotten all my charisma, even if he was not my child in blood.
"But Papa!" Talise jumped childishly. I knew where she inherited her being childish, from her favorite uncle, Zephyrus.
"But Papa," Theron mocked his twin sister. His arms were crossed as if her sister's action was annoying the hell out of him.
"Don't fight. It's my birthday." I pulled my two sons and daughter. "Go to your uncles and greet them also."
"Uncle Zephyrus is asking for a gift." Theron shook his head.
"Give him a kick." I taught him as they laughed.
My eyes gazed at the most beautiful woman in the whole solar system. "Where is my kiss, Darling?"
Zarya slowly walked toward me. She kissed me passionately in front of her kids. Well, they were not kids anymore. Talise and Theron were fifteen years old while Kheros was nineteen. Kheros was the most heartthrob man in the whole kingdom. Women were into her. Theron was the most irritable guy I had ever seen. If the woman was trying to come near him, he would either shout or turn his back. Maybe he was like me.
The moon gave me my wish. During the night I kissed Zarya under the moonlight, I wished to be with her for the rest of my life. I wished to have three angels, and they were now the pain in our heads because of no perfect siblings. They were fighting most of the time, but there was no regret. I love them more than they love me.
My brothers? Don't mind them. They are living the happiest days of their lives. Our stories were written in the Elemental Kingdom Book, inspiring millions of readers.
While they were celebrating the Alpha Kings' birthday at the quadrangle hall, I went to the library with Zarya. I read to her the Alpha Kings' Love Interest. She was just listening while I was reading it out loud. After I finished, I closed the book. I saw the carvings of our titles with glowing silver color.
Alpha King Of Fire
Alpha King Of Water
Alpha King Of Ice
Alpha King Of Lightning
Alpha King Of Wind
Luna Queen Of Darkness
Maybe in another world, we would still be together no matter what we have been through.
I held Zarya's head and rested it on my shoulder.
I will never love another woman in the next life if she's not Zarya Wixx.
My heart, body, and soul are committed to her. I cursed it to the element of water.
Zarya has no escape from me even on other planets.
I kissed her cheek as I read the story of Alpha King Of Fire. She liked to read it again. It was like she just wanted to be with me just a little while. I would never be tired of telling her the story of Pyro and my brothers. I memorized all the events, therefore even if I was sleeping, I could tell a story.
"Papa! Mama! Kheros and Talise are missing!" We were interrupted by the panicking voice of Theron.
I stood up as fast as I could. My children were good at escaping just like what my brothers and I were doing when we were young. However, they would not ruin our birthday for this, so I expect something bad happened.
We looked for them in the whole kingdom. I was relieved when I saw them at the front yard where I first saw Zarya. They were chuckling while talking. I could only see their backs on the wooden bench. I was about to step closer when suddenly Talise leaned her head to Kheros' shoulder.
My heartbeat so fast. Don't tell me they were in love with each other? Damn it! It's much more complicated than I and Zarya's story. It was forbidden love. If I knew this would happen, I should not have adopted Kheros.
I was hoping that I was wrong, but when Kheros kissed the top of her hair. I stiffened. That gesture… that…
Fuck.
Like I said, "The heart does not choose whom it will beat. We have no option if it decides for us."
Your balls,
Alpha King Of Water
