The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

The alphas from earlier figured they wouldn\'t stay in Sicario long enough to witness the chaos, and had made their exits as fat as they could. They knew of the blood rage, and wanted no part of the incoming collective punishment.

"Alpha, you need to come, fast," Adolf suddenly said to Rukiya who was staring outside, waiting to see if there was any news about Hawi. She had been staring in the direction of the Sicario gates like some miracle was going to come to her form there.

Her desperation had been so obvious that her warriors were silently hoping that she got what she was hoping for. Granted, some of them were still skeptical about the Haru relationship, but they were slowly coming to terms with it.

Besides, it wasn\'t like Hawi had ever endangered their Alpha anyway, right?

"Not now, Adolf. You can handle that," Rukiya said dismissively. She had so much going on in her head and she was choosing to trust Adolf with whatever the hell was going on. After all, Adolf was always her second in command.

"I don\'t think she would want me near her," Adolf said looking so desperately at his Alpha like this was meant to explain the urgency of the situation to the woman. At Adolf\'s statement, Alpha Rukiya turned so fast she could feel a pain in her neck.

However, her pain didn\'t matter at that moment.

What mattered to her, was what Adolf had said, because there were so many things that could be fixed by that statement, especially if it was what Rukiya was beginning to think it was or meant.

"Her?" Rukiya asked carefully as she looked at Adolf, silently praying to the goddess that the female in question was the same one that Rukiya had been waiting for. Oh, how she hoped so badly.

"Yeah. She looks… Y\'know, I think it\'s best if you see her yourself," Adolf said and that was all it took for Rukiya Greyson to walk with her best friend towards the possible hope.

Honestly, the Greyson Alpha wasn\'t sure what to expect at this point, because so much had already happened. Then again, she knew that Hawi was always full of surprises so this time it wouldn\'t be surprising anyway… right?

"When did she come?" Rukiya asked as she hurried along with her beta.

Her heart was beating a little too fast in her ears and her anxiety was spiking. She had to remind herself that she needed to be ready for anything. However, Rukiya couldn\'t deny that she was hoping it was Hawi. She missed her mate, however unhinged she was.

She missed the woman who gave her butterflies, who never failed to make her smile, whose ways of doing things were questionable, but one who would do anything and everything to see to it that Rukiya was happy.

Oh, Ruru missed the woman who made her want to live her life again, who gave her a reason to hold on, and the woman who made her feel like she was never alone in power and that they could face everything together.

She needed Hawi, perhaps a little too much because she was so close to losing her sanity from holding on to nothing in the name of waiting for three days. She just couldn\'t take it anymore, and it had just been seven hours.

"We\'re not sure. She hasn\'t said a word and we only knew she was there, when she unmasked her scent. She looks like she has had the worst of days," Adolf said slowly like he was trying to prepare his Alpha for whatever was waiting on the other side.

"Oh goddess," Rukiya sighed, as she imagined just what she would meet. If the woman was Hawi, then Rukiya needed to catch a breath, because she was in for the unexpected that would make her question life in its entirety.

"I\'ll get you clean clothes, and warm water. You will definitely need both," Adolf said, making Rukiya raise a brow at him.

Was the situation that bad or was Adolf just enjoying this? Then again there was concern in Adolf\'s eyes, which meant that this wasn\'t a prank that he would get to laugh about in the end. And that worried Rukiya.

"Thank you," the Greyson Alpha said, not sure what she needed to respond with anymore.

"Rukiya–"

"What is it?"

"Be careful. I know she won\'t hurt you, but she seems to be in so much pain. We have both seen what pain could turn someone into. Just be careful, please," Adolf said, making Ruoya believe that she was headed to Hawi.

That idea excited her and scared her at the same time. The descriptions Adolf had given her made her wonder if it was doomsday, but then just across the road, Sicario was experiencing heavy blood rains. Perhaps doomsday was friendly?

"I will, brother, I will," Rukiya said as she and Adolf parted ways. She headed to where the commotion was, while her best friend went to get her warm water and a change of clothes for the woman she was headed to.

Getting there Rukiya was glad she was right in assuming Hawi had come to her, and it made her proud that even at her worst, Hawi trusted their bond enough to show up to her, however crazy that sounded. It was home for Rukiya either way.

However, other than her joy in knowing Hawi came to her, Rukiya could feel her heart sinking into her stomach. It wasn\'t because of how bloodied her woman was or even what she was holding onto, but because she could hear Hawi whimpering.

"Oh, my world," Rukiya whispered as she looked at a dejected Hawi. No one had ever heard Hawi whimper, not even when she was in so much pain that she was fading in and out of consciousness.

Hawi had always been used to experiencing pain so no matter what was sent her way, she always came out stronger than before. But right now, she was whimpering as the tears fell freely from her eyes.

She looked so distraught and defeated, she looked like she wanted to disappear and leave everything, yet at the same time, the rejected alpha looked like she was just a few seconds away from her murder spree of the day.

Awuor Hawi looked terrible.

"I\'ll take care of things from here. You can go back to training. Remember to be alert," Rukiya said to her warriors who were wearing sympathetic looks.

Most of the Greyson warriors had known Hawi for her smugness. They knew that she would always conquer anything sent her way, but then the woman they were looking at right now, was different.

Perhaps it was because she was hugging a dead Alpha Sicario in her arms, or maybe because the blood on her was her father\'s and she was in shock from witnessing her father kill himself like it was nothing.

It was hard, even for Rukiya herself, to explain and tell what would happen next, not with Hawi looking worse than hell.

"Hawi, it\'s me, your Ruru," Rukiya called out softly as she looked at the girl of her dreams sitting there covered in undried patches of blood. It was almost like she had bathed in a bloody bath but had to leave before she finished cleaning up.

Her once-white hair was tangled in endless knots, and was red, way too red. Her face was covered in red dust, with her tear stains making hopeless lines on her face, only to reveal the blood that was on her face.

Her clothes were tattered, revealing her broken skin and thick layers of ice shards embedded in her skin, that were melting at an agonizingly low rate. The white wolf had unhealed cuts and bruises all over her body.

She was barefoot, with dislocated feet bones that didn\'t seem to bother her too much, despite the excruciating pain she was feeling. Then again, nothing could hurt more than what she was feeling at the moment.

She looked like she had been in a war with a thousand people and had managed to take them all out, barely leaving with her own life. Her breaths were rough as she looked at the man on her lap, the man she had misunderstood so terribly.

"Papa, wake up, please. I can fix this, us," Hawi whispered desperately, as her tears once again found their way down her face. Her hands were holding so tightly to her father who was lifeless in her arms, and was missing a few body parts.

"Hawi—" Rukiya tried again in the hope that she could help snap Hawi out of that shocked state. She had never seen anyone like this, in all her years of war.

No one close to her had been like this, and even Hudhayfah, who was watching in the distance, felt his heart shattering at how broken the white wolf was, once again. She had lost twice in less than three days and that had to hurt like hell.

"He killed himself because of me, Ruru," Hawi said, her voice so terrifyingly cold that for a moment, Rukiya could feel the tides turning.

"Rukiya! It\'s raining blood in Sicario. We need to be ready for the rage of the white wolf. If only I knew where she… Was," Malika suddenly said as she rushed to Rukiya as she got closer, only to realize that her mistress was here.

"Mistress?" Malika called out and Hawi looked at her, with sudden blank yet blood-red eyes.
