THE CHAOS
HALI'S POV
I was unaware that I fell asleep next to Zarya by just sitting on the chair while my upper body was on the bed. I blinked two times as the sunset touched my face. I gazed at Zarya, she was still deeply sleeping. Her eyes were swollen from over crying. I kissed her forehead before I stepped out of the room.
Damn it. I forgot the freaking Colden. I locked the door, so he could not come inside. When I opened the door, he was on the couch, looking at the TV screen, even though it was not open. "Did you just sleep?" He stood up and marched towards me. He never looked at me with anger, not even once. Now, I could see his livid, even though his voice was just low.
"So what if we fuck?" I was just teasing him. I loved doing that to my brothers. The number one dickhead who made mad was Pyro and Raiden. I would not expect a response from Colden.
I passed him by with a little smirk on my lips. I was about to step away when he talked therefore my feet stuck to where I was standing. "Do you have no pity in her?"
A furrow appeared on my brow. I looked back at him. "What?"
"You brought an innocent woman at the Elemental Kingdom to fuck. You didn't even realize that she was dealing with the saddest part of her life." He face to face me. His eyes narrowed. "And yet you called yourself a king?"
I sealed my mouth. I prohibited myself to burst out in madness. It was early in the morning. I must not shout.
"Remember, Hali. You are her abuser. She'll never settle in you." He turned his back on me, walked towards the door, and check on Zarya.
I played with the edge of my tongue, placing it on the side of my cheek. "Can a man starstruck with a woman's beauty be called an abuser? Perhaps…" I whispered which was enough to be heard by myself.
You are clueless.
I went to the kitchen to drink water. I was startled when I saw the breakfast. There were eggs, hams, fried chicken, and fried rice.
Did Colden prepare this all?
A smirk was formed on my lips that all the food was overcooked. He did not know how to cook and yet he tried so hard? Damn it! Even the dog would not eat this.
"I'm so hungry."
I heard Zarya's voice. They were coming towards the kitchen. "I prepared breakfast. Just don't laugh at it." Colden's voice.
I walked toward the refrigerator, grabbed a bottle from the pitcher, and drank water. I observed Zarya and Colden approaching. Zarya immediately sat at the table, looked at the food, and smiled at him. She was about to get one of the eggs. I hurried towards her and got the eggs.
"Don't it that. You see it was fucking toasted." I grabbed the plate and put it on the sink.
"I will cook instead." I went to grab eggs.
"I wanna cook egg pies. Didn't you miss that, King Water?"
I gazed back at Zarya. Last night, she was crying so bad. She changed her mood now. Fortunately, my healing power had an effect. I just soothed her heart in a way that would lessen her pain.
"Good morning!" My attention went to the entrance of the kitchen. Froy was stretching his hand while smiling widely.
"What makes you smile? As if you fucked a woman." I shook my head as I was giving eggs to Zarya. She wanted egg pies, I let her cook.
For the first time, Froy was silent. Was that because of what I said? Or wait, the damn! Did I state the fact?
"Who's your woman?" The curiosity was written in my expression. He did not go out to go to the bar.
Don't tell me his damn woman was inside this condo now? Who? There was no woman here except…
"Morning, everyone." Sera gave us all a wonderful smile.
Fucker!
I hurried towards Froy and dragged him away from him towards the veranda. I beautiful yellow-orange sky was viewed above. The waves of air were cold as I sat down on the steel chair.
"Do you want to confess something to me?" My eyebrows moved up as irritation covered my system.
"What? Nothing." Froy looked away. He was lying to me.
"About Seraphina." My eyes turned small as I was interrogating him.
Froy's funny look changed into a serious one. "Sorry."
"Sorry for?"
He opened his mouth, but I gestured for him to stop by raising my palm up. "Don't say anything. I know now." I stood up and was about to leave him when he said a words.
"I'm a bastard. My life's full of shits. I found true love through Serー"
"I said don't say it!" The giggling was formed in my expression. This was too bad. I touched my nose as the blood flowed from it. I prevented myself to think about Froy and Sera because of my wolf. She was his mate and knowing this matter, it would break his heart.
"Don't say anything about you and Sera. My wolf will die, Fucker!" I wiped the red stain that was still flowing from my nose. "Understand?"
"But she love一"
I hurried towards him. My punch landed on his face, he lay on the floor. "If you and Sera didn't stop. My wolf will suffer. I will never be called king without him."
This was the reason why I kept Sera beside me. My wolf was strong with her. I could feel it. I marched away from him.
Why does it have to be him? Of all people, why did he betray me?
I closed my eyes hard. I had no choice, but to own Sera, own her until my wolf would be satisfied. If she was one of the royals, I needed to marry her to make my wolf stable.
I went to the kitchen. "Seraphina…"
She was standing behind Zarya, talking to her about something. She looked at me.
"Go to the room."
"Hali, please. Don't do this to her." Froy followed me.
"You're the reason for the conflict. Suffer the consequence." My face was so cold. The blood in my nose continued flowing.
"Hali, your nose." Zarya went closer to me. She was about to touch me when I shouted at her.
"Don't touch me!"
"You know what?" Zarya gritted her teeth. "I am making egg pies for you, but now, I changed my mind." He grabbed all the ingredients and slammed them towards my face.
"You have no right to disrespect me!"
"Please stop," Khal said in a low tone.
"Teach your sister the right manner." I rolled my eyes as I grabbed Sera's upper arm.
"He's not my brother!" Zarya screamed back. The chaos was all over. Even my ears were hurting.
"Whether you like it or not. Your father ducked her mother and the damn created." The slap landed on my cheek.
"You are insensitive." She left us. Everyone was looking at me. I rolled as I did not care.
I felt so devastated. My wolf was so mad. It was alarming because I could not control myself if this continued.
Khal glared at me with madness in his eyes. He turned his back and marched away. Colden and Pyro did the same thing. Froy walked closer to me and tapped my shoulder. "I don't know the tradition or why you have to fuck Sera when in fact, she doesn't want." He paused and sniffed two times. "Sometimes, you just need to say what's the content of your head. By that, you avoid losing everyone who loves you, especially me…" He stared at Sera with his teary eyes. "Your best friend."
I closed my eyes hard. "Do you think everything that I do has no purpose?" I tapped his shoulder back. "You're all clueless."
"Tell me, then. What's the purpose of having a bastard best friend?" Froy gave me a small smile.
If only I can.
