Chapter 3:
Ember's POV:
I stood outside of Kolos door pondering if I should enter. I lightly knocked on the door before opening it and heard the conversation he was having on the phone.
"Yes...Yes I-...I know...I'll tell her...trust me I'll figure something out" Kolos hung up the phone and sighed looking at himself in the mirror before he saw my reflection. "Ember! You scared me, heh, didn't know you could sneak up on me like that."
"Sorry..." I lightly chuckled with a small, I closed the door behind me and walked up to Kolos placing my hand on his chest. "What was the call about?" I asked with an innocent look, Kolos knows he can trust me to tell me anything and I wouldn't judge him. When Kolos looked away my ears pinned back knowing it wasn't anything good.
"Your brothers are close...two rings down..." He hesitantly said, and it felt like myheart broke into thousands of pieces. My eyes widen when he mentions my brothers. I took a step back from him as I thought that I was screwed. "We'll figure something out, I'm not going to tell anyone unless you want me to tell them." He spoke his voice soft and soothing like butter.
"They can't know I'm a princess!" I exclaimed as worry and fear started to overwhelm me. My breathing started to get heavy and short; I was panicking. I felt a hand lightly grip my chin forcing me to look up at Kolos who had a look of concern and worry, he didn't say anything just brought me close and wrapped me in his arms. "...what am I gonna do? . . .Charlie can't know....what if Sam finds out" I said as realization came to me. "She'll be mad...she won't be friends with me anymore!"
"Hey, Hey, it'll be alright, I'll see what I can do to stall your brothers. Just take deep breaths and maybe, and maybe if you're a good girl, I'll reward you." His voice was deep and had a hint of teasing and flirty in it. I just blushed a deep red as his voice rang in my head and he just laughed at my reaction finding it amusing.
"Glad you find it funny, no cuddles for a week." I said, turning away from him, crossing my arms and huffing. A small smirk tugged at my lips as he looked a bit sad but more disappointed.
"What?! Oh, c'mon it was only a little joke" He pleaded wrapping his arms around my waist pulling me close. "please baby, I won't survive without you, I promise to give you all the treats" He had a nervous smile on his face hoping it would work but when it didn't he frowned. That was until he got an idea and a mischievous smirk plastered on his face. He took my hand spinning me around before lifting me up so I was on my toes when he kissed me. It was daring but it easily made me submit into his arms as his tongue roamed my lips which I obeyed and opened my mouth allowing our tongues to dance with each other. We made out and Kolos took full control over me, we took small breaths but it was only short as he connected out lips together. To be honest, it turned us both on, but he broke the kiss and gave me a smug smirk.
"Asshole..." I mumble as I leaned against his chest but he just let out a deep rumbling chuckle.
"You loved it" He teased as he started to lightly kiss my neck, but I just grumbled something about it not being fair and that I was caught off guard. "I love you" He said as he rested his head on my shoulder.
"Love you too" I mumbled. I sighed a bit and shrugged him off before smiling at him and giving a small wave goodbye before making my way to my room. Once I was in my room, I started to unpack my stuff moving some decorations to the dresser and I put some pictures on the nightstand beside the bed. "This is going to be a long day." I spoke to myself thinking no one else was in the room. Well until I heard a voice behind me.
"A long day indeed." I turned around a bit startled at who's voice it was. It was The Radio Demon, Alastor. I stared at him and he just stared back but it was almost like a glare. My ears pinned back as a low growl escaped my throat. "Now now my dear mutt no need to get offensive. I just wanted to stop by see how out...pet... is doing" Alastor said in a low voice his eye turning to static as the room darkened a bit before he went back to normal.
"What are you doing in my room?" I snapped at him as he walked by me and picked up a picture from the nightstand, it was a picture of me and my brothers from when I was younger.
"Don't touch that!" I exclaimed quickly taking the picture from him. It was a sensitive topic I didn't like to talk about. The picture was me and my two brothers, my big brothers were sitting on their thrones, and I was sitting on one of my brothers' lap, as the three of us were smiling. I put the picture back where it was but faced it down as Alastor did not look happy that I took it from him.
"Well didn't they teach you manner, little lady? I'm pondering why they didn't take you to the shelter already." Alastor was being a smartass and he knew it, he knew it would make me angry and it did. I growled at him stares of death glaring at Alastor.
"Well maybe if you weren't such a prick, I'd be nicer!" I snapped back taking a few steps towards him, we both weren't happy with each other.
"Looks like they didn't teach you how not to use such language. How rude of you to call me that. How about I tach you some manners." Alastor's voice started to sound static and demonic.
"I'd like to see you try" I snapped back as my eyes changed to a void like appearance, fire surrounded my hands as a black goop dripped down my eyes. As much as I can be scary until I reach my full potential Alastor was a bit more scary than me. The intense moment went on for a few more moments before our attention went to the door when it opened to see Charlie standing there looking between me and Alastor.
"Charlie my dear! We were just having a lovely conversation!" He said going back to normal as he pushed me aside and walked over to Charlie.
"Now who's the rude one. He just pushed me to the side!" We didn't let Charlie speak as another argument was about to start when she held up her hands.
"Oook, let's just settle down. Maybe we can talk this out. Maybe something to drink?" Charlie offered hoping it would calm down the situation a bit.
I looked at Charlie crossing my arms as I huffed at her. "Look, no offense but the whole "talking this out" thing doesn't work well with me." I explained
Charlie just sighed as she looked at Alastor diverting her attention to him. "Alastor, I think Sam wants you for something. Ember, walk around the back there should be a room with flowers, it'll both give you time to think about a new way to approached each other." She spoke but it wasn't a suggestion. Alastor went off to find Sam, who is probable in her office working again, and my ears pinned back as Charlie gave a nervous smile to me before leaving my room. I took a moment to myself thinking about how to go on about this.
