Chapter 107: The Cruel Game of Patience



"Hello, Aunt Sherry," Malika cheerily greeted Sherry when she finally made it to the Greyson pack.

She knew this could probably get Hawi to return her to Olyana, but then it was once again, a risk that Malika was willing to take. It was the only way she could think of at the moment anyway.

"Nkatha?" Sherry said excitedly as she looked at her niece. It had been years since they had last seen each other and this was a nice reunion, at least for her and her niece. It had been a beautiful time, those days.

"It\'s been a long time," Malika greeted, before she caught a whiff of Hawi\'s scent. The woman was dancing with the older kids even though it was almost ten o\'clock in the night.

She was happy. No, she looked happy and that was something that Malika didn\'t like. She always wanted to see Hawi genuinely happy and her bastard ex had once again robbed the women of that. She knew that she was going to make a man\'s life a living hell.

"Yeah, it is—" Sherry began before a ball suddenly appeared out of nowhere at high speed, and hit her niece in the face so hard that Malika fell to the ground from the impact alone.

It was so tight that if Malika hadn\'t been a strong woman, she could have screamed the living night lights out.

She should have expected hostility when she came here, but he hadn\'t expected that Hawi would know this sooner. Then again, there was a reason Hawi was her mistress and her commander. Well, this would be interesting.

"Oh my goodness, Nkatha dear. Are you okay?" Sherry asked as she checked on her niece who had a broken nose.

The pain was intense and Malika cursed herself for taking over a body so weak. What the hell was she supposed to do with it anyway? And how long was she supposed to endure the torture that was definitely coming for her?

"Sherry, pass me the ball, please!" Hawi\'s voice came through and Sherry stood with her hands on her waist like she was getting ready to scold Hawi, but Rukiya suddenly showed up with a smile on her face.

Sherry could tell that she was wearing a sad smile and thought that it was because of what Hawi had done. Oh but if only she knew what was happening with the little woman in their home.

"Oh dear. She looks hurt. Please take her to the infirmary," Rukiya said just as Hawi showed up again and looked at Malika with eyes that asked her what the fuck she was doing there.

They had rules and there was a reason those were to be followed, yet her protector was playing niece to an innocent woman who wasn\'t even aware of what was going on right at the moment.

"Damn, that looks so terrible. Is it my doing?" Hawi asked, the concern in her voice making itself known, though Malika and Rukiya could tell that she was seriously faking it.

It was too much and could be known by anyone who knew Hawi so well but then she was also daring to say anything about what she had done; to try and reprimand her. She could give them hell in itself.

Her anger about her brother\'s death wasn\'t dissipating anytime soon and she hated how she was feeling.

Hawi played around the whole afternoon, even at night she had managed to carry on. She had taken every chance to avoid Rukiya and yet right here she was in the same space as the woman she loved and the woman who was meant to protect her.

"Weren\'t you the one with the ball?" Sherry asked her patience almost at its limit, but only because she was mad that Hawi was playing too late into the night and making everyone else stay awake.

Then again she hadn\'t told anyone to come play with her, not even the warriors. If anything, the only thing she had done was apply with the kids and when it was time for them to go to bed, she had let them.

She had stayed to play with the other kids though.

"I\'m so sorry, Sherry. I didn\'t mean to hit her. Is she your visitor? My apologies. I will fix her up, just give me a second," Hawi said apologetically and Sherry looked at her with a knowing smile.

Since Hawi had shown up, she hadn\'t caused any trouble. If anything other than the first time

They had seen her when she was in nothing but banana leaves, Hawi had proven to be kind and friendly, and most warriors were rooting for her and Rukiya. And it took a lot to get trust from an army like the Greyson army.

"No, I\'m fine thank you though," Malika said and Hawi smirked at her, something that Rukiya had seen. It was then that Rukiya realized that she needed to have a meeting with Nkatha, because she was certainly not who she was presenting herself as anyway.

"Sherry, I need to talk to your niece. Formal processes," Rukiya suddenly said in her alpha tone and Sherry knew that even she wouldn\'t be able to get her niece out of this.

"Hawi, my office, now," Rukiya said and Malika held back a chuckle when she saw Hawi pout at her chosen mate. It was hilarious how she had gone from wanting to kill Malika, to pouting because Rukiya had used the alpha command on her.

Of course, that command didn\'t affect Hawi, but Sherry didn\'t know that. Maybe that was also why she was looking at Hawi apologetically like this was her fault.

"Please don\'t be harsh on Awuor, alpha. It was a mistake," Sherry said sincerely and Rukiya felt like she was being suffocated. Then again she needed to get shit done and her woman had been jumping on thin ice for a long time now.

"I will decide on that," Rukiya said with a tone of disapproving finality before she walked back to her office while Hawi and Malika followed her like sheep.

Sherry looked apologetic though, but she had stayed behind because her alpha hadn\'t commanded her presence anyway.

The walk to Rukiya\'s office felt like a walk of shame, especially when Adolf joined in with worry on his face.

Hawi looked at him and then the other warriors.

And unlike the warriors who were excited to see how this would go and who even thought that this was because of their suspicions of Hawi, Adolf was wearing a sad pitiful face.

It was a face that once again told Hawi that even he had been through what she was going through and that they could come together and face their pain together. But was that really what Hawi wanted at the moment?

"Your Highness," Mbali said, as she intentionally tripped Malika. It was something that she knew would get her in trouble and just as expected, Rukiya let out a sigh of frustration before turning to Mbali too.

"Fucking follow me," Rukiya growled out lowly and defeatedly. She knew that this bunch of people would be the death of her, but she was hoping that she wouldn\'t grow older before she could bear some kids for Hawi anyway.

Though at this rate, there wouldn\'t be any pups for the two of them.

Because she would probably die from dealing with the women around her.
