The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

[SICARIO]

"What if we give her Jer? That man is in the dungeons and hasn't said a word since Hawi left. Maybe we can offer him up as a trade, and say he was the one who killed Rukiya. Surely that should get that queen off our backs, even for a moment, no?" Theo asked earnestly.

They had been trying to live through the madness of the werewolf queen but that woman was proving each day that she was a soulless demon to them.

They had never met such a cruel woman… or maybe they had, but each time they were never the targets of the furry. Oh, but Queen Kia was in her own league of villains in the books by the Savasci knights.

"She wouldn't accept him. If she would have accepted Jer, we would have given him up a long time ago, given that Queen Kia hates criminals. She wants a realm without crime, which is just impossible to manage," Hudhayfah reminded them and they sighed.

This was not fair in any way and the longer they tried to make it make sense the more they were sure that their lives had been doomed from the very start.

How the fuck were they even supposed to come up with a system that world when the woman who was leading them was a hound who wanted their heads off their necks?

It was like she loved how much terror she spread into the realm and it wasn't what they needed right now.

"So, we are fucked," Rio stated like it was the only truth that they could deal with at the moment. Whatever this chaos was, it wasn't what they had imagined when Hawi had disappeared with Mbali all those years ago.

"And we don't have Hawi… Just great," Adolf whined in defeat.

"Oh, the things I would do to get her back," Elodie added what they were all thinking.

Hawi would have out the new queue in her palace and even better, Hawi would have been their queen. The woman may have been crazy unhinged, but at least she was not a stranger to them, right?

"What if we all go to Olyana and try to make her see sense? She would have no other option but to talk to us, right? And what does she even look like, that queen in the shadows?" Zaniel asked impatiently.

He believed all that was waiting for them. The woman had made it her mission to make their lives the worst version of whatever fate could give anyone. She had messed with them one too many times and it was disheartening in one too many ways.

Perhaps this was their chance at making her see sense, no?

"I'm curious about that too. The role of the queen wasn't supposed to go to anyone but Hawi, and yet this queen Kia seemed to be very comfortable there. Perhaps we should go there to remind her that Hawi will come back for that seat real soon, no?

"After all, isn't the crown of the werewolf gene one that only belongs to the white wolf? And Hawi is not dead, which means that there is no other white wolf in the realm yet. We could have been told;

"—and Malika would have been assigned to that new white wolf seeing as she is the best protector, right?" Rio wondered, and they all mushed together. There were so many blank spaces and the queen who was parading herself wasn't making their lives any easier.

For an imposter, or someone they thought of as an imposter, this queen Kia was making their rage show up because of her cruelty and it was just a matter of time before the Savasci knights made their way to Olyana and told her that to her face.

This band of misfits was not scared of any repercussions of the law, and if it was due to the fact that he had entrusted the new Cicero to them, they would have been exploring the world doing whatever they wanted to.

But they couldn't, not this time, and that was frustrating them even more.

"She has some balls that one… what if Hawi is queen Kia and she is testing us? I mean with the combined power we all have, only someone without love for their life would be doing this right?

"Hawi would be the one who could be brave enough to do this to us?" Adolf asked and Theo just chuckled amusedly. They were all going crazy because of the new queue and boy was it agonizing to watch and experience.

They were on a different side of the world with a queen who had it out for them without even giving them a proper reason. Just last week, she had made them redo the annual count of produce, manually.

She had made it seem like the technology that Sicario had long invested in wasn't a thing that she could deal with.

The woman was the spawn of the devil and the Savasci knights had always wished to meet her in a dark alley somewhere in the realm so they could kick her ass. They were pissed and crazy, and this queen was just making them want to be monsters again.

"That's impossible for obvious reasons. The queen doesn't have an assistant, which could have been the case if she was Hawi. She left with Mbali, remember? And Hawi knows so well what that would mean for Malika and all of us.

"She wouldn't let us suffer for this log if she was the queen," Hudhayfah explained and they agreed. Each day they were bound to go crazy with their theories of who the queen was, and each day they never got to the bottom of whatever the hell the woman looked like.

Malika had seen the queen up close, but she had told them that the woman was not Hawi. Malika had never lied to them, so there was just no reason for her to make them go through all that pain, right?

"When she ascended the throne, Queen Kia had amnesia. She had no memories of her pack or her entire life. The protectors throughout that she would be the best fit because of her condition, but even they are complaining about how the woman is hard on them.

"It's like she loves to terrorize leaders of the apes, and especially us," Malika explained and they just laughed at that. It was expected, almost like the deities did not know how to reveal who the queen truly was or even her past.

That was some wild shit and it never made any sense to them. It was like the world was sinning and the woman on the throne was using them as samples of the world she planned to create.

"What if the queen is a grim reaper? What if she wants our souls and she can't get us because of the immortality protection spell that Hawi cast on us? Maybe that is why she hates us and our guys.

We are doing everything right and she can't control us or our power, so she makes our lives difficult, no? What do you think of that explanation?" Rio asked excitedly even though he was talking about an impossible horror.

The woman in question surely couldn't be the Grim Reaper, right? But even then, that didn't explain what she was doing to them all the time. It is like she was enjoying seeing them miserable and didn't make any sense to the Savasci knights.

Maybe their theories would be put into practice and they wouldn't have to worry about the madness anymore, right?

"We're really screwed if we think the werewolf queen is a grim reaper," Zaniel laughed sadly at the absurdity of the idea.

So much had happened to them and they hadn't once considered the things that they were to deal with and yet now, it seemed like life was pulling them into some gamble that they knew nothing of.

Maybe there was a good enough reason, but their lives had been made hard by this woman for all these years. Surely there wasn't a scenario they hadn't had at this point, right?

"To be fair, it's the only explanation that makes sense. Why would she target us like that if she wasn't holding a grudge against us? Or maybe she has a grudge against Hawi and she is using us to lure Hawi out?

"Damn that would be evil and twisted, no matter what the reason gets to be in the end," Elodie chimed in and they let out laughs despite their miserable state.

They had been trying to make sense of everything and each time, they ended up at the same point, thinking the queen was a grim reaper. Would it make their lives easier if the woman turned out to be that?

"And what if she is trying to sue us to lure Hawi into coming back, will we let her?" Malika asked out of curiosity as she looked at the unhinged warriors of the realm.

They were the best in what they did and they never had any flaws, even though they and the queen always found some to taunt them with. But then they had to be a line of through ombre for the queen, right?

She just couldn't be that harsh on them without a good reason, right?

"No way... I'd rather suffer until Hawi herself decided to come back. Imagine telling her that we failed the test of the unhinged grim reaper because we were too weak and missed her. She would be so disappointed.

"We have gone through hell just to get here. If that mad woman on the throne in Olyana wants to mess things up and try to use us to get to Hawi, then she can keep dreaming," Adolf said and the room went silent.
