The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

[RUKIYA]

That evening, as the Greyson gates closed on the Greyson warriors headed to avenge their fallen, Rukiya had only one thing in mind. Awuor Sicario.

Rukiya was pissed that the alpha was dead, but she was also pissed that no one had come forward with a body. If the rejected alpha was really dead, then the Sicarios would without a doubt hold a burning ceremony for her considering what she had done to her mother.

However, they hadn't done any of that. They had been a little too quiet. Maybe Jer knew what had happened, but then Rukiya had other purposes for Alpha Jeremiah.

She needed him, but not because she desired him, no. She needed him to get the answers that had been too blurry for everyone. If there was someone who could tell if the alpha was truly dead, then it would be her mate.

Alpha Jer would have felt the final strings be cut, the strings that no one in Sicario could have ever felt. That was what happened, even with rejections. The soul strings would stay connected for at least a year or so, before they slowly broke.

"Alpha, we're here," Adolf said to Rukiya when they reached a little close to the Sicario gates. They could see the soldiers ready for them. They could see the watchtower at Sicario filled with warriors who were already aiming their spears and archers with their arrows aimed at them.

"Great. I'll go in with the first team, and Adolf, you will go with the second team. The third and fourth terms have their responsibilities and leaders. Remember, I need the alpha alive alright?" Rukiya said to her warriors.

She knew they were a dangerous team and they could do more harm than good, but that is what she wanted. She wanted them to get her the man at the center of this all. Only then would she be able to get her answers and closure about Awuor.

She was desperate for it.

"Yes, alpha."

"We convene at the rendezvous point in three hours. That should be enough for all of us to complete our different missions," Rukiya said to her warriors before they divided themselves and they each went their own way.

The team that Rukiya was leading, was the one that made it to the front gates of the Sicario pack.

The huge black gates were staring back at her and Rukiya couldn't help but remember Awuor sleeping at these gates, trying to find her way in to meet someone there,e and even then, they hadn't listened to her.

They hadn't given her the benefit of doubt. Awuor Hawi had been banished without a trial and subjected to the worst of states. Fuck, Rukiya wanted more blood.

"Good evening Theo. As you can see, we wanna go in. So what will it be? Will you open the gates, or shall I do it on my own?" Rukiya said to the warrior meaning the gates as she looked up at the watchtower. She knew they would never open the gates willingly, but she had to try.

"You can as well go back, alpha Rukiya," Theo said and Rukiya just scoffed.

"Well, at least I tried the peaceful way," Rukiya said before turning to her warriors, "open the gates, you three, you're with me. Take out the watchers."

With their alpha's command, the warriors tried to pry open the Sicario gates, but expectedly, it hadn't budged, so they blew the gates off the hinges. It was apparently the only peaceful way they knew.

Rukiya and the trio were shooting arrows at Theo and his team who were also firing back at them. There were a few hits and misses, but when the Greyson warriors walked into Sicario, half the watchers were dead, and those that were alive were wounded terribly.

The swords and arrows that Rukiya and her warriors had been equipped with, were laced with wolfsbane and silver. Two substances that were so dangerous to any wolf, royalty or not.

"Tie them up quick, Theo," Rukiya said to the injured warrior, as she threw a rope at him.

He had an arrow stuck in his thighs and was ready to shoot and knock someone out with his bow, but then he couldn't, because he didn't have the energy. The silver was already in his style and soon enough he would either die, or he would need intense medical care.

Theo looked at Rukiya's bored and stone-cold face as she stared back at him like she was telling him not to taste her time. He knew she would kill him without a second thought, so he didn't want what was demanded of him.

He tied his fellow injured comrades together and when he was done, Rukiya shot another arrow in his right arm, making the wince in pain and curse out. But that didn't matter to Rukiya.

"Let's go!" Rukiya said to her warriors. She knows that Theo had already alerted the Sicario warriors and they were watching them. So Rukiya reminded her teams to be alert and to remember that the Sicario wolves were well-trained, just like the Greyson warriors.

They walked into the pack, only to be met with emptiness but that wasn't something that shocked Rukiya and her teams. She was aware they had probably evacuated the civilians. That was actually a smart move, for them to avoid casualties.

"Stop," Ruiya said to her warrior, who had been so close to triggering a booby trap. His boot was a few centimeters from the string which could probably trigger the worst of cases in Sicario.

The Greyson warriors looked around, sniffing, and listening to heartbeats other than those of their friends.

"Step back, slowly," Rukiya said to her warrior, and when he did, she threw a stone at the string, which unexpectedly resulted in a hole suddenly showing up in the middle of the road they were in. And it was then that Rukiya figured she didn't have to slack anymore.

This was war, and mercy was not something on her mind. This could also explain why she wasn't surprised when they were suddenly surrounded by the Sicario warriors.

"Rukiya Greyson," Dom said with a lonely laugh. He looked like he had been expecting Rukiya, which was certainly a given, but the smirk on Rukiya's face was enough to tell him that he wasn't going to win whatever this was.

"Dominic Sicario. I would say once to meet you, but it will be hard to hear me, with spears and arrows flying towards you, no?" Rukiya said with a smile before she told her warriors to duck.

The third Greyson team was here and was shooting at anything that didn't smell like the Greyson warriors. They are ruthless and cruel. Soon enough it was a battle of who could live through the other faster.

The battle had officially begun and the shouts of men fighting men and women sighting women was the reminder of that. Rukiya was fighting Dominic, while her warriors were fighting the rest. and for two hours, the warriors fought.

Somewhere in the battle, the rest of the Greyson teams had made it to where Rukiya and the Sicario wolves were. They joined in, and it was a battle of life and death, among warriors who never feared death.

"Another clang of swords and spears and your pack will have no reigning alpha," a voice suddenly growled loudly, gaining the attention of everyone on the battlefield, Greyson and Sicario alike.
