The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance Chapter 206: The Difficult Decisions

[HAWI]

[Five Days Ago]

"What now?" Rukiya asked as she looked at Hawi. She knew that this hadn't been the easiest of decisions and while they had been relying on Mbali's shock to ease them into the intensity of the situation, it wasn't as light as they imagined.

Razia Greyson was a key suspect in her daughter's apparent murder and that was sothing that no one would be waking up from anyti soon. It was the kind of chaos that no one knew of and honestly, it was scary.

Malika looked at Hawi, their eyes clashing in silent agreent, almost like there was sothing that needed to be done and that the rest of their team wasn't supposed to know. But would it even work?

"We kill ," Malika said and Mbali stared at the protector confused. There was just no way this group of psychos was right in the head. There had been so many deaths today, and they were still talking about another one. What the hell was not going on with them?

"Oh, I'm sorry… Your what now?" Mbali asked, her head in her arms as she tried to comprehend the situation. Frankly, she wasn't the only one worried about that developnt. Hawi was too, hell, even Rukiya wasn't sure this was a good idea.

"My death, Mbali. I need to die for the plan to work," Malika added as if they hadn't heard her the first ti. And so, the other three won started talking and complaining at the sa ti, whining about what the hell was going on.

They were slowly turning the morial site into a space for argunt, which was not pretty at all, given this was a night for them to be mourning Rukiya. But then the one to be mourned was the first to be in disagreent. Perhaps they deserved each other?

"Can we please talk about sothing else other than losing one of us again?"

"Which one are you going to die?"

"What the hell do you an 'which you'?"

"Are we even on the sa page?" Malika asked, tired of the endless bickering. At this rate, she would lose her mind and she wasn't even back to the place that needed her the most. These three won were driving her nuts.

"NO!!"

"Great. So how about we listen this ti? Instead of acting like their mouths are running on a morial site, no? Perhaps that shouldn't make it easier for your little brains to grasp the conce— not a word, Hawi," Malika said, as she looked at her assignnt.

"I wasn't going to say anything," Hawi whined.

"You totally were," Rukiya said with a smirk on her face.

"I was not," Hawi insisted even though it was pretty obvious that she was about to start whining again.

"Yeah, whatever gets you through the cold night," Mbali said to Hawi, before adding, "Speaking of cold, can soone please for the love of the goddess conjure a blanket or sothing? My feet are freezing and I feel my chest constricting."

"Don't you have magic for that?" Rukiya asked, rolling her eyes at the Lycan who could get whatever she wanted.

"Aren't you supposed to be dead?" Mbali said, while Malika and Hawi ooh-ed as Rukiya clutched her heart in disbelief.

"That… You… Hawiiii tells Mbali to stop being an to , I'm not the one who wants to kill herself," Rukiya said with a pout and Hawi just facepald. She had never thought that there would co a day when she would have to co between Ruru and Mbali.

Granted, the two always had their monts but this wasn't the ti for the both of them to be anies to each other. And now they were staring at Hawi, alms daring her to pick a side, then again which side was Hawi to pick when she valued them both?

"Y'know what, how about we focus on the version that Malika wants to kill, yeah? And it would be better if she explains why because both versions are pretty functional at the mont, unless I'm the one who doesn't understand what the hell is going on right now," Hawi said.

Rukiya looked at Mbali showing her her tongue, and Mbali did just the sa while Malika snickered before conjuring a blanket for Mbali. She had almost forgotten that away from the danger that these won were, they were always going to be children at heart.

It was a beautiful sight that she couldn't complain about, especially since they were covered in the blood of their enemies. Perhaps in every household, there was a need for this balance however unhinged it was, yeah?

"As I was saying before your—'' Malika began but then she noticed the trio was looking at her, daring her to say so sarcastic statent and perhaps they were right, because Malika did change her statent.

"You people look at like I'm a culprit or sothing, when I am innocent. Anyway, we need to kill my character in Jer's life. As it is, he is obsessed with that ek Malika, and it is risking the lives of his own wolves.

"I am all for vengeance but there is no better way to push Jer to the edge right now, than to take out the only thing he cares about, more than his parents. If we take out, then he will have to find soone to bla and right now, all the fingers point to one person and one person only—" Malika began and Rukiya sighed.

She had never thought there would co such a day, but having been a warrior for so long and a leader too, Rukiya knew there were sacrifices that had to be made. Her mother was becoming a risk to the entire plan that Hawi had and even more to Hawi's life.

If that woman went on with her plans then the entire werewolf race would be taken out. They needed her distracted and perhaps she would lead them to her other band of crazies, or the ones she called the seven.

No one knew what the 'seven' ant or even what it was they did, but if they were anything like Razia Greyson, then they were dangerous. Very dangerous and needed to be dealt with, at least as soon as possible. And what better way than to use Jeremiah Warner as the bait, right?

"My dearest mother," Rukiya whispered defeatedly.

She loved her mother no doubt but then there was more at stake and she was becoming a poison to all of that perhaps this was the only way, or not. But it wasn't like they had enough ti to think of another plan, when there was limited ti on their hands.

They also needed to take advantage of the unrest in Sicario as it could prove useful to them.

"Yes. If this is going to be hard on you, Rukiya, this is the ti to get out. I know you think this is just us being maniacs again, but the white wolf has to be protected, and your mother is a danger to that. Trust , if I am a risk to her, I would eliminate myself.

"If Mbali was, then she would eliminate herself. The rules are clear, and if you were the risk, then Hawi would have to kill you herself, given you made a blood oath with her and only she can break that connection. It's nothing personal, young Greyson," Malika explained softly.
