Chapter 331: For The Girl She Loved Wholly
[HAWI]
Hawi looked at her mate and for the first time, she wasn't sure if she needed to be happy that she had her home again, or if she needed to cry because of how things had turned out to be in such a short time.
She hadn't expected the twists of her coming home again. She had planned on telling Malika and the rest of the knights not to fight for her position.
However, what Rukiya Greyson had done was something she couldn't even describe with ease. This was out of this world and to think that forty-two months had already passed since that agreement.
She had been given a protector in the form of a mate and Rukiya Greyson was so proud of her, but not half as much as Hawi was proud of Ruru for pulling the best trick in the entirety of the realm. This was insanity and strategy at best.
"Sit," Rukiya Greyson ordered and the Sicario wolves did as they were told. Hell, even Jer did as she demanded because he had seen the depths of insanity that the woman could turn him into and he wasn't ready for that.
At least not now.
"If anyone wants to challenge my first order, please remember that I don't need Sicario. And that also means I can have my army here in ten minutes and they can clear the lands. I have enough people in Greyson to man the tech in your pack.
"Technically it's mine now anyway. So, before any of you dare to defy what I just mentioned, you best believe that the only person standing between me and the complete destruction of Sicario, is my beautiful mate.
"You all should really learn to appreciate her because she just saved your worthless asses, again. You are dismissed. Another mention of the damn trial that fucked my mate's life, and I won't hesitate to flatten Sicario. Don't test my patience.
"Oh, and before you all go, I have one last thing to say, the elders council is disbanded. As it stands, there are no eligible elders in Sicario and the decisions here will be made by Sherry and Hudhayfah until we find a suitable set of brains for that position.
"Now you can go, and Jeremiah, watch your back. I am coming for you. You never fulfilled your part of the deal and you have to make sure it is filled. I will come to collect, so didn't even bother wondering what the fuck it will be.
"You won't know unless you see me, alright?" Rukiya said and the Sicario walked and just nodded before they started moving out.
Asmodeus was standing there looking at Rukiya Greyson defeatedly. He had been an elder of Sicario for the better part of his life but then he hadn't worked as was expected, or had he? He had instead just screwed up everything.

He, just like the others, was just a shell of everything that could have become. He was just a nuisance, a reminder that the world was never going to be peaceful as long as some of the people on this pack still existed.
It was a challenge for Rukiya and her potential team but she would fix that too.
She would make sure that the people that replaced the damned elders would be good enough to keep the pack safe and make rational decisions regardless of what happened in the pack.
She would make sure the elders had their jobs in their minds and they knew what they needed to do.
"Do you have anything to say to the new alpha, Asmodeus?" Rukiya asked and Asmodeus just shook his head before he bowed and dispersed along with the rest of the wolves. He knew he had fucked up one too many times and he knew that there was no coming back from this.
"Ah, finally. I swear to the goddess if they hurt you again, I'm flattening Sicario," Ruru said angrily as she sat dramatically on one of the seats that were there. She was sick of people shitting on her mate and she would keep her promise if they tried shit.
"But—" Hawi began and Ruru stared at her softly, her eyes tender and filled with love. You could see the hearts in them. It was like Ruru had decided to make sure that her mate had the best and she wasn't ever letting go.
And more than anything it felt like this was the first time Ruru was seeing Hawi and she was also falling in love for the first time. Oh, but it was a beautiful sight, one that the crazies had stopped in the distance to watch.
"Gosh they're so in love it's so beautiful," Mbali said as she looked at Ruru who was still staring at Hawi, while Hawi was looking around Sicario, like she still didn't believe that she had really come back home and could do whatever she wanted.
She had gotten her home back, her position back and it was all because of the girl she had fallen in love with. The moon had given her the best of mates and Hawi was thankful for this.
She was happy that she didn't have to put up a fight for this one unlike the other times when she was always at the forefront fighting to save whatever was left of her family. She was always the one who held on, but this time, Ruru had given her a choice.
She had given her a chance to make sure that everything was perfect the way she wanted it to be. Hawi was happy, like really happy and Rukiya Greyson was the reason for all of it, and boy was it a beautiful sight.
"You kept your promise, Greyson," Malika said when they finally reached where Rurur, Hudhayfah, and Sherry were. They were all watching Hawi marvel at her home and her smile and they couldn't have wished for anything else.
"She always fights for everyone, I just wanted to see her happy. I wanted to see the smile I fell in love with more than ten years ago. I wanted to see the beautiful girl who had nothing to worry about other than a scolding from her mother.
"I wanted my baby to feel alive and this is just the first stage of it all. Her happiness is my priority," Rukiya said as she looked at Hawi, her eyes never leaving the woman like she was scared that Haw would disappear into thin air.
But then even if Hawi was to disappear, she would always come home, and right now her home was wherever Rukiya Greyson was. Sure, Hawi loved that she had gotten everything back, but without Rukiya all of this would be meaningless.
She wanted to rule beside her mate, and it didn't matter if they were in Sicario or in Olyana. All that she cared about was Ruru being beside her and each day, Rukiya Greyson was proving that she was the right fit for Hawi.
"Damn, girl you're whipped," Elodie said and Ruru just laughed.
"Happily, so. I love her. She makes love feel so beautiful. Look at her. Look at that smile. If she weren't your sister, I wouldn't blame you if you looked at her with desire in your eyes.
I would fold for her anytime," Rukiya said proudly.
She was in love and she was loving it.
"Anyone else thinks the air is too sweet around here?" Mbali whined and they all just burst out laughing, getting Hawi's attention. Her eyes which had once been empty were suddenly filled with life.
It was like Rukiya Greyson had finally breathed life into the girl who had felt empty for so long. She had given Hawi the one thing Hawi had never thought she would have again and goddess, Hawi was thankful for this.
She was so happy she didn't even know where to begin thanking Rukiya from, so she just stood there with a sheepish smile on her face with hearts forming in her eyes as she looked at the girl of her dreams and her very beautiful reality.
"My beautiful baby… come, love," Rukiya said as she opened her arms for Hawi to run into them. She was still sitting, but she didn't mind carrying Hawi. She loved the girl so much everyone was sure of it at the moment.
"Thank you," Hawi said as she reached Rukiya who instantly went up and hugged her softly and delicately like this was just a moment of the two of them and in their own little world.
"No, my beautiful. Thank you, for holding on. You endured what I couldn't have. You stood your ground better than all of us could. You're stronger than me sweetheart, I would have killed a thousand instead of waiting for it out.
"I am so proud of you and I could shout it to the world each and every day, and never get tired of letting the world know just how proud I am of you," Rukiya said as she pulled back from the hug.
Ruru then dug her hands under the shirt she had given Hawi, and tore the rusty gown that was underneath that shirt. For a moment the knights looked at Ruru like she was insane, but Hawi, she was so in love that she didn't even bother to think.
After all, Rukiya could think for both of them today, right?
"No more holding onto this rag, my beautiful, and this bloody crown, will be cleaned up by Sherry so you can wear something clean sweetheart. You are innocent and that's what matters alright?" Rukiya said as she kissed Hawi's forehead and threw the gown on the floor, while handing Sherry the crown.
"I love you, my beautiful, always," Rukiya said, not letting go of Hawi.
