Chapter 82: The Angel of Death [2]

[AWUOR]

"—Hawi... but my 'friends' call me the angel of death," Hawi greeted with a sinister smile, as she casually plucked out all the claws from Mbali's arm, and then stretched the warrior's arm, which was still in her thigh, as if to tell the warrior that this was what happened to anyone who went against her.

Her brutality was known across the realm. But many who hadn't seen it for themselves had always assumed they were rumors. However, were they really?

She knew that she would end up with a dark mark on her thigh when she finally healed, but then this was one she would be glad about.

Mbali let out a gasp as he tried to wiggle from the woman's grip, and even scratched her other thigh to get her attention, but instead, she just smirked at him, as if to tell him that he wasn't being serious at the moment.

He was already having a potentially lost arm and was now fighting to lose another arm? Maybe he had a thing for arms and thighs, right? Well, that didn't matter to Hawi anyway. She could help nurse the warrior, but later.

"Nice to meet you," Hawi added, when she felt her skin closing with Mbali's arm still in her thighs.

She knew that she should have slowed down her healing, but then she was a pissed wolf, one who had been attacked without her permission and woman who had been punched senselessly by an enemy.

She was not the kind to take defiance easily. So she stood there, watching Mbali as her wolf suffocated the life out of the Clarkson warrior.

No matter what grade of warrior anyone was, Hawi was always different, and the girl who could kill by just staring. Bit by bit, Hawi watched as the warrior turned pale, as did the faces of the Clarkson warriors in horror.

It was then that she realized that this man was their lead warrior, their enforcer. And it had to mean something, because of the few seconds that Hawi and Mbali had fought, she had made a conclusion that this was the kind of warrior she wanted beside her in war.

But then no one ever wanted to be against Hawi... Until the dumb Sicario elite wolves.

"Do you want to continue this?" Hawi asked with a bored face, as she lifted her head to look at the warriors and this time, instead of just silence, she saw them take a few steps back.

She was feeling dizzy, and that was something that Mbali had noticed too, because the Clarkson warrior instantly got up, and yanked his hand from Hawi's thigh. It was a scene that left a lot of blood, but a warrior's pride had been hurt and he was going to avenge himself.

"Perfect... I'll think of Ruk—" Mbali began and Hawi let out a warning growl.

"You mention her, and I will rip through you faster than you can make your claws visible," How warned and the skies suddenly turned darker, as the lightning was heard.

It was morning and sunny but then with Hawi's anger came a lot of things, not to mention the liking she had for Ruiya wasn't making her life any easier.

"You mention my Ruru again, and I will burn down Clarkson, and the best part of it, I will make you fight yourselves down to the last one. Don't test me," Hawi added, and Mbali just nodded, having seen Hawi's golden eyes.

It was then that they all knew that Rukiya Greyson was THAT important to Hawi, and that to them was the first sign of hope and humanity. Even if they fought Hawi, at least this time she wouldn't be fighting for nothing, but her love, even if she would deny it to the very end.

"Say it," Hawi insisted as she put her sword on Mbali's neck.

"What?" Mbali asked, not sure what he was supposed to say.

"Say you won't mention my Ruru again, not as bargain to anything, unless you will be protecting her, but I can do that on my own. Now. Say. It."

"I won't mention her, ever, unless I have to," Mbali said and Hawi released her sword as she took a step back from Mbali. She could see the damage she had done to the warrior, but this man had challenged her and she would make sure to finish the challenge.

However, instead of the warrior whining about it he just snapped his bones back into place, eliciting a raw crunching sound that sounded a little too painful in Hawi's ears. She felt sad for him, but not enough to stop her fight.

"Perfect, let's get back to the fight, shall we?" Hawi said the Clarksons had no other options other than facepalm as they watched the two.
