Chapter 188: Sometimes Murder Was Justified
This couldn\'t be real.
The woman who wanted Rukiya Greyson dead couldn\'t be the same woman who had given her life. It just didn\'t make any sense because that woman was smiling at her, bidding her goodnight, and ready to watch her leave to the tent.
She was going to leave her Rukiya with her mother. The same woman she trusted with all of her life, was the one to betray her. What the fuck had happened to the Razia Greyson that Hawi knew? However, did Hawi even know that woman really?
Was it really good enough for her today that she was aware of the woman\'s identity and what she was after?
Oh, Hawi had so many questions and so much rage that for a moment, she had forgotten how powerful she was. It took her a while to realize the wind that had been blowing in her face, was a whirlwind she had created subconsciously.
Her mind had been so foggy and she hadn\'t been able to think clearly. And she had channeled her nature yet here she was in a whirlwind headed toward the team that was hers.
Hawi looked at them, seated there while she stood in shock.
It was almost like she didn\'t know what the hell happened here. Could she trust the Greyson warriors with her friends? Could she filter out the good and the bad from this team, especially now that the Greyson Luna was here?
Who was to tell her that Rukiya\'s own team wasn\'t going to turn against Rukiya? Hawi was frustrated, so she screamed in agony as she fell to her knees, crying as the rains suddenly poured down on the map that had been happy barely a second ago.
Her emotions are overwhelming and she needed a different way to eat them out because she couldn\'t use her powers on Razia and fiercer her into confessions as to why she was doing this.
"Everyone, RUN!!!" Mbali shouted at the warriors as she and the Lycans joined forces to create a magical barrier for the warriors, so Hawi wouldn\'t hurt them.
They knew that this wasn\'t the state they had been hoping for, especially for a woman who had their loyalty. They had never seen Hawi crash like this. It was like she was losing her mind.
For the first time in a long time, Rukiya Greyson was scared of the mate she had chosen. She wasn\'t sure whether she needed to go to Hawi, or if she needed to go beyond the barrier that Mbali had created between them.
It was crazy really; all of this was so sudden and no one had been expecting Hawi to be in such a condition.
"Rukiya!!" Mbali shouted as she tried to reach Rukiya, but she couldn\'t, because the whirlwind was pulling Rukiya closer to Hawi.
Mbali was smart enough to know that even though this was dangerous for everyone including Rukiya, there was only one person who could calm her down, especially not that Malika wasn\'t here.
"What is happening?" a scared Rukiya asked as she watched Hawi\'s eyes flicker between black, red, and gold before they turned white. It was an array of so many things and Rukiya noticed that with each eye change, there was a change in the atmosphere.
There was either complete darkness or the fires were blazing from nowhere or there were heavy rains, not to mention the water that was flowing down the stream was red in color. No, it wasn\'t a blood rain but it was something that only Maika could explain.
But Malika wasn\'t here.
Mbali desperately tried to reach out to Malika, but she couldn\'t thanks to the magic that Razia had used on Malika, but there was only one person who could reach Malika and it was raining so suddenly.
There were bolts of lightning razing down their camp and it was scary, thankfully, the magical barrier that Mbali and the Lycans had joined hands to create in saving them from all that. It was a hail Mary for them.
However, this time the warriors were seeing first-hand what happened when Awuor Hawi wasn\'t laughing or cheering for them or fighting beside them. This woman was a wild tornado, if all it took was a hundred Lycans to help create the barrier and even then they still could feel the effects of the mess.
Razia Greyson, was inside the barrier too, acting like she wasn\'t the reason Hawi was in that state. Well to be fair, Razia didn\'t know that this was because of her, she just imagined that something had upset the women and now her daughter was getting dragged in.
Oh but this could have been the perfect chance for Her to kill Rukiya, but she would wait it out.
"Please save my daughter," Razia cried out helplessly as if she wasn\'t the one who wanted her daughter dead in the first place.
The confusion Rukiya was experiencing was top notch, she wasn\'t sure what the hell was happening but she knew this wasn\'t the time to question Hawi. So she let herself be pulled towards Hawi, who hugged her tight, like she was scared that her Rukiya would disappear.
Hawi wasn\'t going to let Rukiya go and the only reason she wasn\'t getting Razia herself, was because Rukiya had helped her stand up, even though the whirlwind had turned into some sort of stop that was unbearable. This was a real mess.
Two hours later, the storm had subsided, and Hawi had fallen on the ground, wrapped in mud and unconscious. She was whimpering defeatedly almost like she had lost something.
Mbali liked the warriors and the Lycans before she walked towards the duo that was on the mud. Her Lycans would deal with the situation and help the warriors with whatever they needed.
Meanwhile, Mbali would try to figure out what the hell was wrong with the psycho this time.
"Are you alright, Rukiya?" Mbali asked when she got to a shocked Rukiya.
Unlike the others, Rukiya wasn\'t wet even though she was covered in mud. She was warm despite the weather being so darn terrible. Not a single strand of hair was missing from her head yet she had been caught in the crazy whirlwind.
Her hair was in place, but that didn\'t take away the fact that she was not sure what to do now. Everyone on the other side was silently praying for her to be okay, while her mother dearest was praying that she would die so that Hawi would be stopped.
But then how were they to stop someone who couldn\'t be stopped even by the deities?
"I don\'t know. I really don\'t know what the hell is going on. She\'s whimpering and her heart\'s not beating. I can feel her pain yet she is cold and war at the same time. I feel so disoriented and she looks dead and she is alive.
What happened, Mbali? What happened to make her like this? Who did what? Where and when? Who do I have to go after?" Rukiya pleaded with Mbali as she tried to get Hawi up, but the woman wasn\'t moving.
It was like she was in some word crest. Oh, this was confusing as hell and the more they stared at Hawi, the longer and thicker the crust formed. Mbali tried with her magic, but it was useless.
"Forgive me for this, Rukiya… Also, if I die, take care of my Lycans, yeah?"
