The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

[AWUOR]

"Won't you say something to me?" Rukiya asked, making Hawi stop in her tracks.

"You? You mean the alpha that left her mother to guard the pack while she's out here seeking a disaster of a woman? You mean you who keeps poking your nose in things that don't even concern you?

"What do you want me to tell you, Rukiya? Thank you? But for what? The blood oath is stupid, was stupid, and will always be the stupidest decision that you ever made while your best friend and the old idiot beside you watched.

"Don't expect me to thank you for forcing yourself into my life. I didn't ask that of you. As you can see, I was doing well on my own. Fighting MY battles, alone. Facing MY demons, alone. I told you the first time that you didn't need to show up for me.

"And I'll say it again, Rukiya Greyson. I am not a charity project that you want to see its success. I am an alpha and a powerful one. I may be without a pack, but I can easily take your people with a snap of my fingers.

"But hey, you want me to tell you something, right? Release the Sicario warriors and let them go back home. And you too, go back home. The freelands isn't a place for a pretty little princess like you," Hawi said coldly, her voice shocking even Malika.

It was almost like the woman had been possessed by a spirit, but Awuor was right. She couldn't keep herself bound to Rukiya just because of the damn blood oath. If push ever came to shove and all her contingency plans failed to work, then she would consider seeking Rukiya.

But until then, until her long list of contingency plans was exhausted, Hawi was going to get some rest and forget that she had seen one of the smartest alphas in their realm, be a fool right in front of strangers who would mock her for life.

And there was a chance that Hawi would do the mocking first.

"What the fuck did you just say to her?" Adolf asked angrily when he felt Rukiya's heart breaking. Of course, even he had expected the whole evening to be a shitshow, but damn, witnessing Rukiya being burned like that wasn't fair.

Rukiya was compromised. Adolf knew it. Hawi knew it. The prisoners knew it. Malika knew it and even Hudhayfah knew it. It was all just a matter of time before she fell apart because of her actions, which didn't seem like too much of a big deal right now.

Eventually, her irrationality would bite her in the ass, but then what were the chances that Hawi changed over time? What were the chances that the fierce banished white wolf would change and be warm to Rukiya?

"Why, have you gone deaf in the few minutes that it rained, or did your brain cells take a break again? You need to be one with your brain, Adolf. At least if one of you is smart, the big bad alpha wouldn't have made such as stupid decision.

"Anyway, you can choose not to listen to me and get on with your oath or whatever the fuck you were doing before Malika and I showed up. Maybe it will make your evening beautiful and who knows, maybe the skies might be starry right?

"Get on with it, maybe it would be good karma for you guys, right?" Hawi said, and Malika looked like she was about to drill a hole in her forehead, from the amount of facepalming she was doing.

Malika wanted to tell Rukiya that Hawi was just shocked and that the banished alpha just needed to process the fact that one of the most powerful alphas in the region had taken up arms on her behalf.

She wanted to explain to Rukiya that maybe by morning, when Hawi was done getting over the shock of Rukiya choosing her without a doubt and a pause, things would be alright. Maybe then it would be fine, really fine, yeah?

Oh, but that would have been easy if Malika was dealing with someone else other than the mother of crazies who looked amused, angry, and emotionless at the same time.

The angry smirk on Hawi's face, conveyed a different emotion from her blank face and hopeful eyes, not to mention the heavy blushing she was doing right now because of Rukiya, though Hawi would deny it with her life if ever asked.

That was something Malika would ask her about when everything had calmed down. But in the past few minutes, the only thing Malika could think of, was that Rukiya Greyson had made the mother of crazies blush, even if it was just for a second.

And that, in Malika's book was enough proof that Hawi had emotions.

A part of her was normal and that was a sign of hope for humanity, right?

Oh, Hawi.

"You ungrateful little—" Adolf began and Hawi didn't even bother to wait for the rest, because she was already on her way. The night was cold and with the rains, it would be hard for them to get dry branches.

And that only meant that she would be sleeping in her wolf form. But then again, that would leave Malika cold. Maybe they would stay and talk about the night and then sleep during the day when the sun rose, right?

"How are you feeling?" Malika asked when they got to their shelter which looked like shit.

"Better than the shelter we set up," Hawi said as she pointed at the mess before them.

"Do you think it's too late for us to go back to Rukiya and ask her if she can give us a place to sleep for the night? I feel so tired, and the aging spell you cast on me made me feel weak," Hawi whined and Malika let out a chuckle.

It was nice to know that even though she had been a bastard earlier, there were little things that still managed to bring out the young whiny ass Hawi. She looked different with her long white hair trailing down her back.

"It's not too late, but then you just dismissed the woman for looking for you when everyone probably wasn't. You made her feel like she didn't need to come for you, even though she felt the need to. And you made her question if what she felt for you was real or not."

"I was that bad?" Hawi asked and Malika just rolled her eyes at her.

"I was just being frank with her, and what the fuck do you mean when you talk about her emotions. Were we looking at the same Rukiya? Or did I have a different focus?" Hawi asked when Malika began picking whatever was left of their shelter.

It was going to be a long night for them.

"I'm not even surprised you didn't notice that," Malika sighed.

"Oh come on, I didn't do shit."

"Yeah right… you did nothing, other than blush like a little birdie with a crush. Just between us, you both would make a bomb couple… don't ask me what a bomb couple means. Help me fix this mess," Malika laughed and Hawi joined her, feeling confused as hell.

'What the fuck is a bomb couple?'
