The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

"We have Malika on the inside, you need not worry and from what I felt last night, Elodie is also on board with our plans," Mbali said confidently. This wasn't foreign to be hard for them and for that, she was glad.

"What did you feel?" Riley, the leader of the Sicario rebels asked.

"They fucked, again," Rukiya said and all eyes turned to Hawi.

"I didn't do anything. I may have been asleep and Ruru peeked," Hawi defended

"If it helps, I didn't see them—" Rukiya said like that was supposed to make the whole situation very right. It was a crazed team and they sure had different types of normal but goddamn, it was going to be a long one this time.

"Y'know what, can we please never talk about Malika and Elodie's sexcapades? I'm already traumatized enough, man," Riley complained.

Hudhayfah just laughed at her. He had been with these crazies for over two years and while even he hadn't gotten used to them, he knew it was going to be a long ride, especially now that the war was here.

So much could happen and they would all see the crazies doing the craziest of shit just to keep the team lively.

Not that he was complaining, but goddamn.

"Oh child, you're in for a new type of normal with this bunch," Hudhayfah said reassuringly to Riley who looked at the others and saw them acting like this was normal. Of course, it was. What did she expect when bad met worse and they had an army?

"So, what do we do in those three days?" Riley asked.

There hadn't been a plan for them waiting for three days, so this caught her off guard. She knew that they would be attacking Sicario day and night, weakening their bases.

However, from what she was hearing, it seemed like the most they could do was to try and make sure that the Sicario wolves herald enough for them to fight. She wasn't sure how long the war would be, but one thing she knew was that the time was enough.

With the resting intervals Hawi was permitting, the last warriors standing would definitely be the best of the entire realm, because there was just no way. If anything, the Sicario warriors were trained by Hawi for the most part.

They just had to summon their training, right?

Or maybe it was a good thing that Hawi wasn't using Sicario Warriors as her main defense this time?

"We rest and bury our dead. They may not be many but they mean everything to us. And make sure their graves are marked. We will not bury our harvest in unmarked graves," Hawi explained like the dead couldn't bury themselves.

If they wanted to, they could burn their dead using Hawi's magic in seconds and that part will be taken care of. But perhaps this was not just about the things they could do, but what they needed. And rest was it.

"Okay, Alpha. Can I be excused?" Riley asked.

"Of course. Remind everyone to go to medical for a checkup all right, three days are enough for checkups," Hawi said to Riley. She knew that the wolves had been hurt and while she wanted to use her powers to heal them, she couldn't.

They were still in the first phase and if they got to the last phase and she was weak, then this war would mean nothing because she wouldn't be strong enough to get to the end of the battle, which was a need for her.

"Yes Alpha. See you later," Riley said as she left the tent to go and attend to her duties.

"I'll send word to Sicario, also be with the warriors," Mbali said before adding, "Adolf, come along," Mbali said and Adolf looked at her as if to ask what the hell she was to do with Mbali.

The woman was the devil's spawn and if she wasn't under Hawi's control, Adolf was certain she would explode on him. He didn't what that and yet at the same time he had a feeling that if he stayed here he would be more traumatized by what would happen.

"Why do I feel like we're being left alone?" Rukiya asked when she saw Mbali and Adolf leave willingly. It was strange, but anyone with eyes could see that the two women needed to be together and this was just their barbaric friends giving them a chance at that.

"Not really, Alpha. I just have to also leave and go to medical. I'm in charge of them, remember?" Hudhayfah said and Rukiya was convinced that they were avoiding them. It was too early for medical, beatitudes almost half the camp wasn't even awake and they were to be treated, what a load of bull.

"Of course, you do," Rukiya said before turning to Hawi who was smirking at the motions in the meeting tent. It was like everyone just wanted to leave them alone like they were up to no good. Or maybe at war because Rukiya and Hawi were the key factors in the war?

"Do you have any clue why they all left one by one?" Rukiya asked even though she could tell that Hawi wouldn't answer her truthfully on this particular one.

"Nope," Hawi said, looking around the tent like she had just decided to study the structure in itself. It was the same thing their friend had been doing earlier so she didn't think it could be as bad, right?

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. you heard them, Ruru, they have duties to tend to and we are the Alphas here, which means we also have duties to attend to, in private," Hawi said and Rukiya stared at her wondering what was going on in her head this time.

"Oh, really now?"

"Of course. Jer is working with a warlock, one who seems to be holding the cards for him, given he cried out for her when Malika was hurt. I believe that is connected to him wanting you dead," Hawi said and Ruru sighed.

That was a sore topic for them and Hawi was probably already blaming herself for it.,

Now that Rurur thought about it perhaps that was why she was trying so hard to smile for them earlier but then there was no need for her to burden herself on her own, when she had everyone ready to lay their lives for her, right?

"I thought he was bluffing, given he's too weak."

"It's not something to take lightly, love. If he was that angry and wanted you dead, I assume someone is putting him up to it. He doesn't have the balls to come after you, alone.

"So that was a risk he took, a stupid one nonetheless, but there is no telling that he won't try again," Hawi said

"Well, he can try. I am powerful enough to ruin him and the entire Sicario in one sitting," Rukiya said angrily. She hated people who tried to kill her because they always failed and we're always sloppy.

"I know, but we just need to be sure. Perhaps Mbali can enlighten us more, later," Hawi said

"All right. And what do we do while we wait?" Ruru asked.

"We go hunting. You owe me a good hunting trip, my beautiful," Hawi said and Rukiya nodded in excitement.
