Chapter 169
THERE’S NO POISON
ZARYA’S POV
“Hmmm…” When I moved my body, I felt the pain in my back, knee, and the middle of my thighs.
What happened? Am I subjected to rape?
I opened my mouth immediately. I was familiar with this feeling. This was the first sensation when the night I lost my virginity.
“Aww…” I moved a little. There were big arms wrapping around my body. I glared at Hali when I felt that I was not wearing anything. This could not be. He took me while I was drunk? This man! I wanted to kick those balls!
“Good morning.” He had a wide smile on his lips, but I responded with a back away.
I grabbed the blanket and stared at him with the fire in my eyes. “Did you take me last night?”
“Yup.” His tone was proud as if he could not recognize my madness.
“You raped me.”
“What! No!” He suddenly moved up. “I didn’t. What’s the matter with you?”
“No! What’s the matter with you! I am drunk! You shouldn’t take advantage of me!” Even if I love him so much. He should still seek my approval in this matter. It hurt me when he did that withou-
“I can’t believe this. You asked me to take you. I didn’t do that without your consent.” His stare at me was full of worries.
“Why is there a pain in my back, middle thighs, and… my whole body! It’s all aching.”
Hali prevented the formation of a smile on his lips until he covered his lips and then laughed so loud. “You…” He laughed, rolling on the bed like a crazy person.
Did something funny happen last night? He seemed so happy.
I forced myself to remember everything in accordance with my scope. No events were popping up.
“You…” Hali could not continue to speak when he laughed and laughed, no end. I could see his shaft sprang while he was rolling in bed.
I threw him the pillow. “What happened!”
He cleared his throat, managing not to laugh. “You’re so horny last night, Love. You did everything. You down on the floor and let me inside you. You requested me in different positions. I was so freaking damn tired, but you did not stop. You were mad when I said so.”
“You mean…”
“You raped me.” Hali laughed again as if that was so funny when I could see it was not. “We’re even.”
I covered my face as the embarrassment filled me. Gradually, the memories were popping inside my head.
“Fuck me harder until I can’t walk.” I pushed him onto the bed and I initiated everything! As in anything we did!
I could not look directly at Hali. That was so embarrassing!
I covered my face with the blanket and I did not show my face to him anymore. I heard footsteps coming to me. He stopped in front of me.
“Darling…”
I wanted to kick him for calling me different endearments, but it was fine. Sweet though.
“Every person has monsters of their own. Everybody has secret and other sides. You don’t have to worry about all the things you did… because you did it all to me…” He was whispering, his words soothing my system. “All of those… I liked it. And if you want that again… I will always want it, too.”
A moment of silence before he talked again. “Whatever you desire, I will give it to you. Wherever you go, I’ll be with you… because you are my sun.”
I slowly peeked my one eye at him. The other one remained to hide in the blanket. “Did I rip your clothes?” I felt so shy when I asked him. I just saw his clothes on the floor, scattered pieces.
“It doesn’t matter… what only matters is I have seen the entire you. The other side of you.” I watched the formation of curves on his lips.
“I was just drunk. I didn’t know what I was doing.” I pouted my lips. We made love countless times, my concern was my attitude during my insanity.
Did he feel turned off to me? I hope not.
“Sweetie, it’s definitely fine.” He moved closer and embraced me so tight. “I love you.”
I was touched by his words. I slowly hugged tightly. “I love you more… Asshole.”
*****
I was settling on the big rock while watching Khal and Hali, they were running, and playing with Ember. I was chuckling every time Hali fell to the ground. He fell intentionally so that Ember would support him in moving up.
The days were getting smooth. No problem. No argument. Just pure love. Hali and I were giving and taking. When he was exhausted with his duty as a king, he would just summon me in his office at the Elemental Kingdom and then he would just kiss me and then he felt charged and euphoric. He had the energy to continue his business by interacting with the other people from the other packs. He was still learning how to manage his anger, not shout, and be calmed all the time. He decided to help Raiden with all the duties burdening his shoulder. He was changing… a lot. Pyro and he usually had bonding with Ember. He learned how to value every single moment in his life. Zephyrus? He was all the time in the Human World. I learned from Raiden that Zephyrus had a serious lover from there. Raiden was a little devastated when he was talking about it because Zephyrus’ lover was a human. They should not have a child or else that child would be a monster. Also, the Elemental Kingdom prohibited that kind of mating.
I would wake every day with Hali next to me whether I was sleeping in my chamber or in his chamber. We were fine with this kind of setup. At least we knew to each other that we were in love and we would spend the rest of the day accompanying one another.
I was wrong when I be contended and did not think of the incoming disaster.
Leo stood next to me. “Great Beta, Queen Haliana is summoning you.”
“Do you know the reason?”
“Nope. Just go in there. Don’t let her wait.”
I headed to her chamber. The truth was, I had not talked to Queen Haliana. I had limited encounters with her, so I was not sure what was her personality. Or how was she as a queen to her people, but according to Hali’s story, she was the biggest thorn in his throne. That means they were not on good terms.
“Great Beta.” Queen Haliana greeted me in a very friendly manner. It made me hesitate about her.
Hali said if someone was having a beautiful smile, not all of them had good intentions in their minds. Some of them had a very detailed plan for you and they could not wait to apply it.
The sounds of her heels click-clack on the floor when she walked toward me. She kissed me on my cheek and when she moved away, the smile did not leave her lips. She held a glass of wine from the table and gave the other to me.
“I’m fine, Queen.”
“Queen?” She paused, looking side by side. “Your call to me as a queen is intimidating.” She ignored my refusal of the wine. She still insisted on putting the glass in my hand. I gazed at the glass, using my wolf power to smell what was the content of it.
“Don’t overly think…” She swayed her hips when she stepped to the window. “There’s no poison in the wine unless you think there is.”
“What do you need, Your Majesty?”
“Simple.” She gazed at the view outside the window where Hali and Khal were there. The nervousness in my chest covered me, it was deafening.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
