The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

Chapter 368 For You, Mi Reina, Only For You

[HAWI]

"Step back, what the fuck are you doing?" Mbali asked Amina who was determined to close the distance between them. It was a risky move for both of them but Amina knew she could only just be patient for too long.

She had happiness right in front of her and yet somehow she was unable to hold onto it or even protect it. It wasn't fair and no matter what angle Amina looked at in all of this form, she and Mbali would be the ones suffering because of the damned bond.

They had only ever wished to be happy and yet here they were, shells of who they were supposed to be. This was not what they had prayed for, but as it was, the goddess seemed to be kind and deaf to their prayers.

Nothing could explain what the fuck was happening right now.

"Your sister's mark looks pretty on you. At least now I know I won't have to worry about you being so hurt. She reignited your sibling bond, and that is enough to protect you, even from me, mi reina," Amina said sadly as she looked at the mark on Mbali's wrist.

Her heart had been breaking since the time she had learned of two Mbali was and what her reason for being here was and honestly, Amina was tired. She was tired of walking on eggshells around Mbali.

She was tired of wondering what they were to do next.

She was tired of thinking of everyone's feelings except hers. She had been born into a family of rebels and had been taught to keep up with the mission, which was to make sure the white wolf never survived.

Find your next adventure on empire

Her family had a long history of jeopardizing the realm in different ways, and right now as she looked at her mate, Amina never wanted that., not right now Jeopardizing the realm meant that her Mbali would forever be forced to work on fixing up her messes as that of her family.

Her Mbali would never get to live her life and that was something Amian wouldn't let happen. She refused to let her family destroy the woman she loved just like they had destroyed her will to live.

"Don't tell me you actually believe that she would mark you on the neck, when I was here, mi reina. You have little faith in your sister's desire to protect you," Amina said and Mbali growled at her in warning.

She was happy, very happy but she was still scared that her mate was leaving and would never come back again. Mbali was worried that this would truly be the last time for the both of them.

Maybe she just had to beg the universe to help her out, right? Surely it couldn't be that bad, no?

"You would sound so damn hot under me, fuck," Amina mumbled but then everyone heard her. She realized that the squad had already come back for wherever they had gone, but Amina wasn't afraid to admit just how much she loved Mbali and wanted her.

"Did she just–" Ruru began as they stared at Amina and Mbali who had this agonizingly small distance between them. Ruru's heart ached for both their souls that were obviously yearning for each other, but they were fighting it.

Love was never meant to be fought. Life was never meant to be put on hold but it seemed like each time they tried to make it work for their team, they were always going to be met with some sort of resistance.

Ruru could only hope that Mbali and Amina found their way back to each other no matter how long that would take. It was not much to hope for, but it was something worth fighting for regardless of the endless times they would be forced apart by fate.

"Oh, she did. She is crazier than I am... Like her already," Hawi said as she looked at the duo. She could feel their hearts beating for each other and just like any sane person, she hoped that it would be better for them.

"That is my sister you fucking creep," Malika said as she rushed to widen the distance between her sister and her mate. She wasn't ready to start talking about pups when they were not even sure that this would last that long.

Malika simply wanted to protect her sister's heart from breaking, but then wasn't it already a broken heart given the circumstances at the moment? Was it too much for them to bear or would they have to pretend about it all?

"What did you just say?" Mbali asked and Amina stared at her softly.

"You heard me, mi reina. Anyway, if you want to kill me, you already have the blade. If you want information, I will give it to you in exchange for me staying close to you. As much as I want to say I waited for more than three hundred years for you;

"I am not that patient, especially when you have alphas around you," Amina responded earnestly.
