Blaze pov

(warning: some mature content) 

I wake up feeling a hand on my bare stomach. I turn my head to see its owner, and I'm met with a ball of red hair.

Memories from last night come rushing in my pounding head. I must have drunk too much again. I can't remember the name of the naked woman next to me, but that's nothing new. As I never ask for a title.  It doesn't matter for me as long as my primal instincts are satisfied.

I grab a handful of her hair and direct her mouth on my now erected member. She starts licking and sucking, and I start pounding faster and faster till I release myself. 

"Get dressed and get out!" I said, my voice rough. The woman put her clothes on with trembling hands and rushed out the door. 

"My King!" I heard Titus, my head warrior, after a couple of minutes. 

"Come in!" I said, still lying on my bed. As soon as he stepped into the room, I could see the worry in his eyes. 

"My King!" He said, bowing his head slightly, "There's been another attack. A whole city was destroyed to the ground. The few survivors are asking for shelter in the Capital City."

I stand up from my bed, not worrying about my nudity. Titus has seen me like this before. He has been on my side since I took the throne almost 17 years ago. I was only ten at the time. He was like a brother to me.

"Go bring the advisors! We'll have a meeting in 15 min sharp! No one is late!" I said, entering the bathroom. 

After I took a cold shower, I put on some dark jeans and a button-up black shirt. My tan skin and golden eyes were glowing in the sunlight that was coming through my window. I make my way to the meeting room, and as soon as I enter, everyone bows their heads. "Your Majesty!" they all said and remained to stand until I sat down and permitted them to do the same.

"It was brought to my attention that a whole city was destroyed. Lots of innocent lives were lost. How is that possible? How the fuck was that happening? Who is responsible for this?" I said in a stern voice, making the advisors flinch and looking down. 

"My King! If you allow me, I would like to speak!" one of the elder's advisors said.

"Go ahead! Speak!"

"My King! The warriors are weakening! There's not enough food to keep them strong enough for fighting day and night, Sire! I'm sorry, My King, but we are running out of food and water supply in all the Kingdom. The soil's so dry that our cultures are dying." He said with teary eyes. 

"Why has no one told me anything about this before?!" I yelled, smashing my fist on the table! 

"Our people are dying, and no one thought it was important for me to know?"

Getting up from my chair, I said in a deep voice.

"Get out! All of you, Get out!" Everyone rushed to the door, afraid of the consequences if they're in my way longer than needed. 

"Titus! You stay!"

"Yes, My King!"

Closing the door after the last advisor exits the room, he came and slumps on a chair 

"What are we going to do, Blaze? Things look pretty bad if you ask me."

"I know Titus, I know. I'll find something."

The meeting room doors opened, and my sister, Enya, came in.

"My King!" she said to me and then nodded her head in Titus' direction "Head warrior!"

"Leave the formalities, Enya; I told you I don't like when you're calling me like that. Not when it's just the three of us here," I scolded her while taking the cup of coffee from her hand and taking a large sip.

"Fuck!" I said, spitting the black liquid on the floor, and the room was now filled with Enya's and Titus's laughing. 

"Oh, brother! I'm glad you're not hurried like that when you approve new laws, otherwise who knows what would happen."

"Who was the hottie that left your room so early in the morning? Should I let my hopes get up?" She was trying to annoy me now, or what? She knows better than anyone that there won't be a woman in my life; I won't allow that. I saw first hand what love could do. I won't let myself fall in love. Never! I don't have this luxury. People will die because of my love, their King's love.

"You know better than this, Enya! You felt it on your skin! You felt what love between royals could do! We are orphans because of that kind of love!" I said with clenched teeth getting up and going to the large window."

Kids were playing on the streets, unwary of the danger over the corner. The war was slowly going to destroy what's left of the Fire Kingdom. I can't let that happen! I was so young when I took over the throne, so unprepared. I didn't know war tactics or how to manage food ratios. But I've learned. I'm good at this now. Hopefully, it's not too late for my people.

"I heard the news ", she then said. Her smile disappeared. Now her eyes were full of pain. And it's hurting me to see my sister like that, my only family. I'm not even capable of keeping my sister happy. How am I going to support thousands of souls alive then? I need a plan. I need to do something. But what? Our land is drying out. People are starving. Women and kids are killed in this unforgiving war. They should not know these troubles. They deserved to live a better life.

"Then you know I need to do something! I need to do something for those people! I need to make our parents proud!"

"They are proud of you, Blaze! I'm sure of that, as I'm sure I'm proud of you!" Enya said, kissing my cheek. 

"Maybe you can get an alliance! Why not ask for help from the other Kingdoms?"

"You know I can't do that! I won't stoop so low! Plus, why will they help us?"

"Because once, we used to live in peace. We were celebrating and mourning together! We are all elementals! And I bet everyone is sick of this stupid war!"

"She's right, Blaze!" Titus added. 

After a couple of minutes of silence, I turn around so to look them in the eyes.

"I'll do it! Prepare everything! We go in a week!" I said, addressing the last part only to Titus.

Daddy will be sad.""Yes, he will be sad. So let's get dressed!"I start brushing her black curly hair. She looked so much like her father. Black hair, tan skin, only her eyes are silver-like mine. Sometimes I can see the purple in them. I know she can control all the elements, even the Aether. She will be more powerful than all of us. But this is what scares me.

Please!"I look around at the sea of people. Her family was crying. Oren was still shocked by what had happened earlier. I'm not sure what that was. But I swear I have seen Amaya turning into a giant black wolf. I heard stories about people who had this ability. But it was only stories.All the water elementals were on their knees, waiting for their fate to be decided.

She nodded her head. "Don't try to save me, Amaya! I promise I'll do my best! But if my death is truly the only option to end this, I won't hesitate. Tell my family I love them! And please, look after Blaze!" She gave me a small smile, and I left the already damaged barrier between Aalto and us down, only to create another one that separated the three of us from the others.

They won't expect to see me! Everyone thinks that their prince is dead! I can create a distraction long enough for you to go unnoticed.""That's a good idea, Kano!"He then heads to the gates. I could see the surprised warriors trying to figure out how it is possible for their prince to be alive.I get close to them. Careful not to make any sound.

The last time I saw her, she was going to her room. Is everything alright?" She asked, worried."Yes, no worries! Maybe she's asleep. She didn't sleep well last night." I said, hoping she was in bed.I made my way to our room, but it was empty."Where is she?" I asked no one in particular."Blaze! Blaze!" I turn around to see Kano.&n
