FEAR NOTHING
HALI'S POV
The sun had risen, and I stayed in the bed, rolling my arms to Zarya's small body, sharing a comforter with her. I raised my hand, removing the hair blocking her beautiful face. I was eyeing her for countless minutes. I could feel my chest bouncing. An incredible sarcasm smirk could be traced to my lips.
Why is it feeling? It's strange.
I followed her every single day. That was not in the scope of her knowledge. I saw her leaning her head to Colden, crying in the burial of her best friend, trying her very best to give justice. She was a Poor Little Thing when I first met her, but now, she was the biggest threat to the enemies. I liked to say, she did the right decision when she killed TRace Hendrix. That man had raped hundreds, a bad person: the problem was he fell from Amira Ledes. Love can change the world, change the person rather.
So do I.
I slowly moved toward Zarya's face. I did my everything to make her not awaken as I kissed her forehead. I was not sure why I was doing this gesture, I just felt like doing it with her. It felt nice. That's all.
I grabbed her arms slowly, removing her hug from mine. I gently let out my body from the bed, afraid of bouncing it, so I could not wake her up. I put on clothes before I headed to the kitchen. I was about to open the refrigerator when I saw the herbs in the trash can. I was bending my back, therefore, I stood straight. I was located in front of the counter island.
"Fuck." I burst out in a small voice.
Did she not create herbs to drink? To avoid baby? She is making a huge problem if she got pregnant.
"Fucker." I grabbed my phone and dialed Froy's number.
"Hey, what's up! Still alive, you Motherfuc一"
"I need a medicine to avoid pregnancy."
"What? Who is pregnant?"
I was startled by his question. Pregnant? She is not pregnant, isn't she?
"She's not… ahm." I had difficulties telling it. I placed my left hand on my waist. "Just bring me damn it!"
"Are you sure, she's not pregnant? If she is, you will kill the baby. Your baby rather?"
I gasped for air, the edge of my tongue settled on my right cheek and then bit my lips afterward. "She's not," I whispered.
"How sure are you? Did you try a pregnancy kit?"
"I don't fucking know that! I am not a human. Drag those two either!"
"Hey, hey! Don't scream, Fucker King! I am not there. Call Khal instead."
"What?" I started to be annoyed. "Why him? You know一"
"We know he likes her and that is the only way to break him apart, so he will stop liking her. He must be aware of what's happening between the two of you. You can't hide it forever."
My mouth opened and then shut again. I was thinking of a good reply to his words, but I found nothing.
"I'll call him. He'll be there in a minute." Froy broke the silence. "Wishing you lots of luck."
"But一" The call ended. I looked at my phone screen and muttered. "How dare you to hang up!"
"Is there a problem?"
I had not aware of Zarya's presence. She was at the entrance of the kitchen. She was wearing white long sleeves just reaching the middle part of her thighs, the two buttons above were not fastened, showing her cleavage. She was just wearing red panties which could be traced in the thin clothing, causing my dick to stand in this early morning.
"Do you want me to fuck you in the kitchen? Wearing that clothes? Seriously?"
She shrugged. "I'm not scared." She moved closer to me, touching my abs, surrounding me with her evil grin. "You're not answering my question? What's wrong?"
I pointed at the trash can, showing her the herbs that Colden had brought. "Do you really want to be as little as the dust?"
"And?" She just raised her eyebrow as if she did not care at all.
She bent her body down to get water from the refrigerator, her red panties were revealed to my eyes. I bit my lips. Colden might go here, I did not want to create a commotion with my brother.
"Are you afraid that I might get pregnant and you can't stand as a father?" She faced me, approaching me with the pitcher and glass in her hands. I saw in her emotion the trace of pain.
"Afraid? Big word. That's not in my vocabulary." He wrapped my arms around her waist. "Anything you want to eat for breakfast?"
Her forefinger moved from my neck down to my chest down to my belly and palmed my freaking balls. "This."
A grin was formed on my lips. "Sure." I was about to pull my sweat short down when she chuckled and turned her back on me. Her chuckle became a loud laugh when she walked toward the living room.
"Egg, ham, and fried rice are enough!" She shouted when she arrived there.
I was about to act when there was a knock on the door. I walked towards it, but Zarya blocked my way. "Hide!"
"Seriously?" The waves in my forehead were there.
"Probably, it's Colden. He shouldn't see us like this!"
"It's not Colden, it latkes hours from the Elemental Kingdom to一"
"Hide… please." I could see the worry in her eyes, which made my jaw clench. I scoffed in sarcasm as I went to the room.
So… she cared for him now? Fucker!
I heard footsteps going to the door. It was annoying when I went under the bed.
"Khal? What are you…" When I heard Zarya's voice I immediately went out. Zarya glared at me. "Did you call him to come?"
"Froy." I passed her by. I gestured to Khal to come in. His eyes were examining the two of us, from my topless to Zarya's clothes. I forget that she was just wearing thin long sleeves therefore I grabbed her upper arm and whispered. "Go to the room and change your clothes."
Good thing, she listened to me. I thought I would go to lift her to follow me. She had a self-awareness that she was wearing seductive clothes in front of two guys.
"These." Khal placed the paper bag on the center table. He sat on the couch and straightly looked at the TV screen, even if it was not opened. "Pregnancy kit and pills?" He looked up at me with his cold eyes.
I settled next to him, folded my arms, and leaned my back on the sofa. "Piss of me?"
"No, not yet, not so sure. I want to punch you right now, right in the face, and kick you as well." His voice was just low, afraid that Zarya might hear.
"Then why do that?"
"I only need a word, Hali. That's all. Tell me you love her that's why you are impregnating her."
"She's not pregnant!" My voice had shock me, it was loud and I started to be a mad king again.
"Fine, not now. How about tomorrow? Can you take full responsibility of her? You're aware that I and your brother always take care of her and yet you are ac一" Khal stopped talking when we heard the door open in the room. Zarya moved out from inside.
"Did you bring me food, Khal?" Zarya sat beside him. She got the paper bag. I let her see what was in there, her mouth was barely opened when she saw the content. "What are these?"
"Pill and pregnancy test," I answered her.
"I'm not pregnant." I could see the shaking of her hands and the moving of her chest up and down. "No, really."
"Just test it." I could not look at her. I knew she was fear of knowing. I was afraid at all, I was just dread of knowing what would happen to the baby if the Elemental Kingdom knew.
"Then, what are you going if am I!" Zarya stood up recklessly. "Kill it? Subject me to abortion?"
I opened my mouth, but no words came out. I blew a sigh and looked at nowhere. "I am a king."
"You are an asshole king! Once I knew the result and I am pregnant… you will never gonna see me again!" She grabbed the pregnancy kit, marched towards the room, and locked the door.
Khal was shaking his head at me, his jaw was locked. "You take the baby if there is, or else I'll get them both and you're not allowed to see even their shadows."
"Was that a threat?" I rolled my eyes. I had no plan at all, but she is important. She really does.
"Hali!"
I stood up immediately and hurried towards the room.
I should fear nothing.
