Gift (Ice Fantasy) [COMPLETED]

"Do you really hate Ka Suo?"

"Every time that I think of him. My heart aches. Only when I'll kill him that I'll be finally free from it."

Yan Da sighed, eyeing the soldiers behind them. Knowing that she can't really talk to him about Ka Suo with them in there, she instead raised her hand up lightning some fireworks.

"Fireworks?"

"I used to do this for you when I see that you're upset. Hoping that I could at least ease some of your pain this way."

A small smile curved his lips. His eyes focused on the fireworks above him. "Are you alright?" He then asked after a while. "The baby's not being difficult is it?"

Yan Da smiled, caressing her stomach. "I've only vomited once this day." She said, letting out a small yawn.

Noticing this Tian Jin moved, slipping a hand on her waist. He pulled her towards him, making her sit on his lap. He then let her head rest on his shoulder.

With a small smile on her lips, Yan Da closed her eyes. For the first time, she felt content. Her heart at ease. Though there's still fear and uncertainty in her mind, she ignored them. Focusing on the moment right now.

Flame's eyebrow rose at the scene in front of him.

"I didn't know that those two are like that." Phoenix said. His gaze is also focused on Yan Da and Tian JIn. "Heh, no wonder he was so possessive of her."

Flame just kept quiet. After some time, he walked away... leaving the couple behind.

Hours later...

Yan Da is now laid on her bed. Tian Jin is by her side, watching her sleep. Thinking. The things she'd said to him before planted doubts on his mind. About the fire king's intentions and all. He knew that when he first saw him that he couldn't be trusted. The glint in his eyes told him so.

Tian Jin sighed. Gently, caressing the fire princess smooth and soft cheek. Should I bring her with me? But... that'll bring suspicion...

"Yan Da," he whispered, kissing the princess on the forehead. "I'll be leaving. Take care of yourself and our child."

One last glance and he left the room.

Outside...

"You're leaving." the fire king stated.

"Yan Da told me about the other tribes. I've seen the healer tribe but not the others. I want to check them out myself."

Hou Yi nodded in understanding. He then moved aside letting the prince leave.

As Tian Jin leave, Flame's gaze didn't leave him. Remembering Phoenix's words.

"I never saw anyone with Princess Yan Da. Except when she fought Yuan Ji with Prince Ka Suo and the others."

"Are you sure?"

Phoenix looked thoughtful. "... well... there's the elf..."

"Elf?"

"Prince Ying Kong Shi's remaining soul became the new guardian of the deicide sword. It seems like him and Princess Yan Da became acquainted on the journey to our Castle. They were pretty close."

Flame sighed. Quite conflicted. Things became more complicated because of his daughter's condition.

The next day...

Yan Da woke up in a foul mood. She feels really irritated for some reason. Going out of her room, she immediately went to see her father.

"Father," she said, greeting him.

"Yan Da? You're early today." The king observed.

The fire princess let out a frustrated sigh.

"What is it?"

"It's nothing father. I'm just really irritated for some reason."

The fire king smirked. Probably because your mate isn't near. "Go wherever you want to and cool down. "

"You'll let me roam?" the fire princess asked in surprise. Usually, her father didn't let her leave the Blaze city to just relax.

"Aa. It'll be good for you than just staying here."

Yan Da blinked. "I'll be going then." She was about to leave when Flame stopped her.

"Li Tian Jin left too. He said he'll be checking on the other tribes. You'll probably meet him. Yan Da no matter what if possible avoid being in contact with him."

Surprised, all she can do was nod in agreement.

The fire king watched her leave. A small smile on his lips. Young love. Abruptly, though, the smile vanished. It turned into a sadistic smirked. Soon and I'll become the ruler of the three realms.
