The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

Chapter 58: The Destructive Decision

[RUKIYA]

"I want to see her because I like her," Rukiya said and everyone in the shelter let out a gasp, even old Hawi who had been sleeping. However, Hawi covered her gasp with a cough, especially when she heard Malika dying of laughter in her shelter.

The mother of crazies' title was finally Rukiya's at this point, because no one in their right mind would want to say things aimlessly like that, right? There had to be ramifications for careless words like that, right?

Then again, this was Rukiya Greyson and she didn't become so powerful by being so careless. But what if this time, the Greyson alpha was being truthful?

"Well it seems like it's time for us to sleep," one of the prisoners said with a laugh as he looked at Rukiya.

As everyone looked at her in shock, this prisoner could see that there was something in Rukiya's eyes and it looked a lot like sincerity, which was something that he had hoped wouldn't be real.

Rukiya Greyson liking their alpha hadn't exactly been on their bucket list because now they had to try and make the woman understand that there would be no day that Awuor Hawi Sicario would change her mind about her plans and choose Rukiya. It was an insane decision.

"Hold up, Rukiya. You what?" Adolf asked but Rukiya ignored him and looked at the prisoners.

"I will make the blood oath, and bind myself to the lands, since we don't know where Alpha Awuor is, or even if she is dead. If she really is dead, then it will be a faithful oath to Awuor's loyalists and if she is alive, then I shall swear on my life to protect her till her last day.

"If she is to die, she must by natural causes and if someone forces her to die, then I will avenge her down to the last bit," Rukiya earnestly said and the wolves let out unsettling coughs.

The more they stayed here with Rukiya, the more they realized this woman was a few levels crazier than the alpha they were looking for.

It was quite confusing to them, especially since they had never imagined that Rukiya, of all the alphas, would agree to this or even say what she had said.

They had thought that it was a trap but the determination on Rukiya's face made them realize that this wasn't just about power anymore. This wasn't an alpha who was willing to look out for another alpha.

It was a messy situation and the only reason Rukiya's shelter wasn't swept away was because her warriors had made it a few meters above the ground, and were stable enough so it wouldn't sway. But how long would that hold?

"I'm fine you ungrateful child. Why the hell did you wake me up you little shit?" Hawi said to Malika who looked at her like there was something that Malika needed to explain.

Hawi knew that Malika had been listening to the conversation and she knew that the weather had been too good earlier for a storm to even show up from nowhere.

It was all so conveniently crazy, but even she was smart enough to know that her protector might have had a hand in how the weather had changed a little too fast.

"Are you guys okay? The weather outside is not so good, and I was worried about nana. Thank goodness I left that shelter because it had been swayed by the floods," Malika said like everyone here hadn't already seen her shelter being dragged away.

But then it wasn't like there are so many options left for her right now, or was there?

What mattered right now was that Rukiya didn't make the damn oath because as much as it was bad for Rukiya, right now, it would be worse for Hawi, especially if Rukiya was making the oath because she was a spy for Sicario.

That would break Malika's soft heart and she would have no other choice but to eliminate alpha Rukiya Greyson in the worst of ways. Malika hated taking lives, but for the crazy woman pretending to be a nana in the shelter right now, Malika would do so without a second choice.

"We can make the oath after the weather gets better, because you need to let a drop of your blood get into the ground and dry out within. Others you will have bed for nothing," Hudhayfah said and Adolf sighed in relief.

He was clearly against the idea, but now that they had more time, maybe he would convince her against it, right?

"Alright then, I'll wait."

A/N

Why do you think Malika was against the binding so much? Does her distrust for Rukiya have anything to do with the fact that Luna Eniola was Luna Razia's best friend?
