Chapter 58: The Destructive Decision



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 would have been a stupid ass decision.

Instead, this was a woman in power, but still a woman who was determined to look out for their very own. It didn\'t matter that the rejected alpha had just been banished, because clearly, Rukiya Greyson didn\'t mind that.

And it scared them all, including Hawi who was still lying on the floor, her breaths so even everyone was thinking she was asleep.

"Once you make the oath, you can\'t take it back, do you--" Adolf asked, even though he had somewhat expected that Rukiya would do whatever it took to keep Hawi safe. It was crazy, but maybe the alpha was really dead and that Rukiya\'s oath wouldn\'t mean shit, right?

"I will make the oath. How do I begin? What do you need me to do? What am I supposed to take or wear or what is needed for the blood oath?" Rukiya asked, the determination in her voice making Malika worry about Hawi truly for the first time.

The both of them had never imagined that Rukiya Greyson was willing to go through all of this just for Hawi, an alpha she had met at least once in her life. It was too expensive a decision and seeing how Rukiya was more than ready to make the path, Malika knew this wasn\'t good.

They had no reason to trust Rukiya or even her conviction that she liked Hawi.

It was all so vain and truthfully, Malika didn\'t like it.

"Fine, you need to--" Hudhayfah began, before there was a sudden storm outside that rattled the surroundings.

There was a rain coming and just to make sure that Hawi was safe, Malika rushed out of her shelter and back to the shelter that had Rukiya and her team she wanted to see to it that Rukiya didn\'t bind herself to Awuor, at least not until they had a reason to trust her.

For all they knew, the woman was a ticking time bomb and signs like those were very dangerous to everyone and life itself.

"It\'s raining so hard out there, are you guys okay? Nana? Are you fine you mouthy old hag?" Malika asked when she got into the shelter, intentionally disrupting the blood oath even before they could start.

The storm outside was wild, but only because Malika had triggered the storm. She had used her powers to make sure that the weather would be so terrible that by the time it all stopped, they all had no choice but to go in different directions.

The winds were a little too cruel, not to mention the rains were hitting so hard that for a moment there, they watched as Malika\'s shelter got dragged by the floods that had formed.

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?
