Chapter 50: Of Respected Boundaries

[RUKIYA]

"Go home be with your family. Your wives are waiting for you," Rukiya said to the Greyson warriors who had come to war with her. They had done a good job holding the fort earlier even though they could tell that there was more to the weird mission that their alpha had them go on.

As usual, they never questioned the orders from Rukiya, but at least they deserved the break for their loyalty.

'Five days,' Rukiya said to herself as she looked at the warriors cheer on.

They were excited to go home, but she was more excited to get the two intruders from Sicario who she had been holding in Greyson. She only had that long, before she would have to hand them over,r thanks to the deal she had made with Jer.

That was also why she needed to make sure she got as much information from the goddamn intruders before she sent the back, because, after that, she wouldn't have an ace up her sleeve anymore.

Maybe alpha Rukiya was wild for taking on this mission, but the only thing that mattered to her was that she found Awuor, and sorted things out with her.

Of course, Rukiya constantly convinced herself that she was doing this for her mother, the luna Razia, deep down, this was for her. Rukiya wanted to know that the banished alpha was doing okay. it was something she'd been working on for weeks now, and she needed to see it through.

"Are you sure about this?" Adolf asked again, and Rukiya couldn't help but roll her eyes at her beta.

No matter how many times Adolf asked her that question, the answer would always be the same. She was sure about this, and she'd been thinking about the woman for a while now. So no matter what the outcome was, Rukiya Greyson had made her decision

The Greyson alpha then released her warriors, in the hope that there would be a sense of normalcy at home. She didn't care that she was slowly becoming an absent alpha; the only thing that mattered was her closure.

"You know what you need to do when you get home," the alpha said to her beta, who was still glaring at her. this whole mission was risky and out of order, but he'd already agreed to it ,so there was no point in him trying to backtrack at the moment.

"Why am I always the one in trouble when it comes to Rukiya?" Adolf complained when the luna grabbed him by the ears and dragged him into the Greyson pack house.

Of course, this was their type of normal, but there were times when all Adolf wanted was a normal life, one that didn't involve being beaten up on behalf of Rukiya and especially given that he couldn't fight the lunar anyway.

"Now will you give me an explanation or will I have to get it out of you myself?" Luna Razia asked the hopeless beta, who seemed to be silently praying that the woman will let him go.

Then again, whenever it came to Rukiya, the luna was going to be protective, after all, she was hr only daughter, and the only real family Razia had. Adolf figured he could save himself some time and get to the issue at hand.

"Okay, okay," Adolf said and luna Razia let him go as he rubbed his ears which were already turning red.

As much as Adolf knew how costly Rukiya's current mission was, he also knew how important it was for the alpha, and while it was attempting to tell the crazy Luna the truth, Adolf knew it would only get the woman worried even more.

And then he'd have to sit through hours and hours of the luna crying out for her stubborn daughter. He was already horrified enough and didn't nat a taste of that again.

"Rukiya got a deal to finalize with the Sicario wolves and that's why I'm back home. I still have to go back to her, I just came for the two intruders. That's all I can tell you, luna, I'm sorry," Adolf said sincerely, even though he could tell that the luna wasn't believing him.

Hell, even he couldn't believe that he was in on this road to madness with Rukiya, but he was a loyal beta, that was all that mattered to him.

"Fine but make sure my daughter comes back home to me and she's hurt, you'll dig the farm on your own," luna Razia said and Adolf let out a defeated sigh.

Of course, he was always the one suffering when it came to the two women, but he was thankful that the woman was respecting her daughter's boundaries because that was very important especially given what the wild Greyson alpha was working on at the moment.

"I'll try my best Luna."
