The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

[GREYSON - HUDHAYFAH]

"Draffin—"

"It's nothing, Hudhayfah. I am at a crossroads with the women of my life and now I have to watch one of them kill the other. I know my Rukia and I know if she learned of this, she would kill her mother.

"I know her temper and that is a burden that I cannot put on my daughter. I know the Russels are coming for me. Sooner or later, it will be my head on stake or something., No one knows what will happen to me, but I know that is coming.

"I have thwarted the theme for eyes on end. Just promise me, Hudhayfah. Promise you will keep my daughter safe, and make sure she finds her mate, the white wolf who will put an end to this madness," Alpha Draffin said and Hudhayfah felt his heart break for the good Alpha.

He knew that this couldn't be easy for the Alpha and he hoped that he would find a way around it, because otherwise he would hurt for a little longer than he had hoped for. Then again, when would such a heartbreak be sorted out when he was never going to see himself losing any of his failures?

There had been days when Alpha Draffin had considered having a second child but then he wasn't sure he wanted another child as Razia's target.

Sure, he already knew that Rukiya was the only chosen one, but he couldn't handle having his children turn against each other because that was what he was sure Raza would do. The woman was crazy, and Draffin was desperate.

"I will keep her safe, Draffin. But why does it feel like you want to go against the shadow warlocks on your own?" Hudhayfah dared to ask, and the Alpha stared at him, before he looked at the tiny photo of his daughter on his desk.

There was only so much he could hold out. He couldn't help thinking of the consequences of everything, but even then he had never thought his lovely Rukiya would be the price of his love.

This was too cruel, even for him. It wasn't what he had thought of and frankly, he couldn't take it anymore.

"No matter what happens, keep my Rukiya safe. You can leave now," Alpha Draffin said and Hudhayfah contemplated staying a little longer, but then even he knew that it was pointless.

There was nothing he could do to change the Alpha's mind and the only thing now was to hope that the universe wasn't as cruel to the Alpha. Maybe all of this would be better, right?

After the chat with the Alpha, Hudhayfah was on the lookout for any changes. He knew that Razia wouldn't stop to get what she wanted and I was worried for the Alpha. Rukiya saw her father fewer times compared to the previous times.

It was like his father was pulling away. Occasionally there would be screwups apparently by alpha Draffin and Rukiya would have to clean up the mess. It was a hectic fete for Rukiya.

However, she faced it head-on because she was the next in line. But then even she got tired of cleaning up after her father. And Alpha Draffin could see how fatigued his little girl was. So, he did the only thing that could keep his daughter safe.

"Hello, my love. Do you have a minute? I would like to talk to you about our Rukiya. I am worried about her," Alpha Draffin said to his wife. She was currently in their bed chamber and she was seated on the bed, deep in thought.

The Alpha was tempted to ask what it was about, but he knew that her daughter's demise would be part of it. It was risky for him but he couldn't stay on the sidelines and watch Razia ruin his daughter.

This was about his child's reputation and not a long gamble on how to do what and when. It was not how it was supposed to be, and they knew it.

"Sure, what has she done this time?" Razia asked, her voice passive like she wasn't talking about her only child.

Over the years Rukiya's hair had grown longer and so the kid didn't know of the tattoo on her head, but her mother knew. She was haunted by that little horrifying birthmark on her daughter's head.

Granted the hair hid it well, but Razia's anger was never going away.

"She hasn't done anything, Razia. Have some faith in our chi—" Alpha Draffin began but the luna was not in the mood to listen to him.

"If you came to talk about the girl who behaves like a boy then please, spare me. She shouldn't be hunting or playing with swords, Draffin. She's a little girl who needs to know what life means and her life is definitely not on the battlefield.

"You keep training our child like she is going to some invisible war and I've had it with both of you. If you are wondering why I pulled back, it's because I don't know both of you anymore.

"You're not the people I knew," Razia said and Alpha Draffin scoffed angrily at his wife's statement.

She had to have some nerve describing his daughter like that. The daughter he was fighting tooth and nail to protect from the woman who was criticizing them. Alpha Draffin was losing his patience, and maybe that was the final nail on his findings.

"Oh yeah? Tell me, Razia. When the hell did you ever be a mother to our child? The kid doesn't even understand you. You are like some robot for her. All she has to do is wake up and go train.

"Granted this wasn't how I pictured my daughter would be, but then you and I know she's born for greater things. You might sit here and deny it all you want, but our daughter is linked to the white wolf," Alpha Draffin said angrily before he looked at his wife with soft eyes.

Perhaps he would be able to get through to her, right?

"Do you really have to keep trying to kill our child with your magic, Razia? When does it end? Please, let me know. When will you stop targeting your own daughter and trying to end her?" Draffin asked and Luna Razia sat up.

Of the things she had been expecting from the husband she now considered whiny, this was not it. She looked around as if to find a way out of this, but even she knew that there was no way.

The only option was that she eliminated him. She loved him, but then she couldn't do that to her daughter. The same daughter she was hell-bent on eliminating.

If Draffin knew that she was a shadow warlock, then it meant that the pack would soon know. She knew she had pushed him to this point, but what else could she do when the rules were clear?

"Is that supposed to appeal to my motherhood? You and I both know that she is one-half of the white wolf. If that bitch is allowed to grow up, then she will eliminate my kind who practice dark magic.

It may be new to you, but the Russels don't appreciate any threat to their lives. So, tell me husband, what should I do with you now that you are a nosy one?" Razia asked as she cast a spell on her husband, one that changed the Alpha's scent from the usual Woody scent, to a stinking rogue scent, making Alpha Draffin an instant rogue.
