The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

[HAWI]

"Mother, can I ask you something?" Hawi asked as she turned to look at Luna Eniola. She had slowly made peace with the fact that this wasn't real, but that didn't mean she had to play the lonely girl anymore.

She would try her best to maximize whatever this was and no matter how it turned out, she didn't complain because she had no right to. This here was like karma for her, and she wouldn't embrace it wholly.

"Sure, what is it?" Luna Eniola asked, looking at her daughter, the lovely child that she had hoped to be with for a long time.

Funny how fate had messed that up for the both of them too. It wasn't right, and it was unfair, but then weren't they already past the regrets and maybes that they could fill their stomachs with?

Wasn't it enough that the universe was still a lonely place for the both of them?

"Am I going to die? Well, everyone dies, but you know what I mean… Will I die because I'm seeing you constantly?" Hawi asked, her reality staring at her. She knew it wasn't right for them to hope especially with how crazy everything had gotten, but what else could she do?

At the end of the day, she was also just a person, someone who needed people by her side, someone who knew how to fight, and someone who hoped that whatever she was fighting for would be worth it in the end.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Maybe it was an insane choice for Hawi, seeing as the time she had spent with her mother had been too little, but it wasn't like the answer would be as bad as the one she had already thought of, right?

She couldn't leave her friends and her family like that. However, if there was no other option for her, then she would be at her best and try to make things worth it for them all.

Granted, she already suspected that the chances of her going back home to see her friend's family had grown thinner over the past four months, but perhaps it wasn't wrong to have that little hope keeping her sane.

Maybe it was the only way for her to keep herself intact and not break because she refused to be the broken piece of the group that her friends would have to work so hard to piece up together.

She couldn't be that cruel to them no matter how things turned out. There had to be another way to abound all of this.

"I don't know, child. But from everything that has happened, the chances of you never going back home are high. People tend to hallucinate about their loved ones, when their souls are on the bridge to the afterlife.

"Maybe that's why I am here and not your father. Maybe it is because you have a lot to say to me and you were hoping to have a chance just one more time," Luna Eniola said and Hawi sighed.

All her life she had hoped that things would get better for her. She had tried to be the person who made things better for everyone and now she was going to die without reason, just like that?

Hawi couldn't think of anything that had gone wrong in her life for her life force to fade that fast. It just didn't make any sense. She had done everything they had wanted her to do.

She had been the good alpha.

She had made sure her people were safe.

She had fixed it all for them and so it just didn't seem fair to her. Perhaps there was something she had missed. Or maybe she just didn't deserve to live through what she has suffered for, right?

"I bet I expected that. But I'm not injured, mother. I have no wounds and I feel okay. Why would I be dying then?" Hawi asked the confusion eating her up.

It wasn't a fair thing on her end, because all her life she had done what was needed. What the hell had she done that was so wrong they had to take everything from her the second time?

"No one is killing you, Awuor. This is all your doing, child," her mother explained but it wasn't enough it just didn't explain anything that was happening to her at the moment.

How the fuck was she supposed to believe that all of this was real and not just another phase of her hallucinations? Oh, Hawi had so many worries but even she was smart enough to know when the roads were closing on her.

The way she had hallucinated on the ship and the way she had started seeing her mother's face years ago. Perhaps it was just too much for the girl who only ever wanted to live and wanted her madly back.

Perhaps anger and rage did a number on her and there was just no other way out for the girl who had lost everything along the way, right? Maybe she had to lose herself in the process for the fates to be satisfied. But was that even logical in any circumstance?

"Well then, I'll just sleep and wait for my imminent end it seems," Hawi said defeatedly as she lay on the ground, shifting a few times before she finally let sleep take her. She was fatigued and had a lot in her mind.

There was no telling what he would do next, but then maybe this was the only thing for her to embrace. Perhaps it would get her to the afterlife and to the family she had lost unjustly. Enjoy more content from empire

No one ever deserved to go through what she had and she hoped to the goddess that this was the same fate for anyone out there. It wouldn't be fair to lose everything.

Hawi was alright with it though, because she couldn't fight it, but she hoped that they would get a fair trial no matter how things got.

"Always the sacrificial lamb," Hawi heard her mother say one more time but she assumed it was just in her head again, so she wasn't bothered.

Perhaps if she slept the entire time, all of this would fade and she would realize that her being the white wolf and every little shit she had gone through was just a nightmare that she could wake up from.

Besides, no one ever really killed their mother just because they could, right? Oh, but they were just wishes.

"You fucking had your magic and you couldn't use it to help us cross?" Ruru complained when Malika portaled them to where Hawi was.

She sounded so offended by the fact that she had to sweat it out through and through, but Malika just shrugged like this was the only option for them. Then again, looking at Hawi's sleeping form.

It was like they needed to get to this point as fast as they could. But now that they were here, what the fuck were they even supposed to do?

Ruru still had a lot to say to Malika, but the uneven breathing from her mate got her attention. She had slept beside Hawi long enough to know that Hawi's sleeping patterns were not this.

"I'll count to three and if your eyes are not open by then, I will cut your hair," Ruru warned and Malika let out a gasp.

Surely that was… extreme?
