Chapter 124: Of Brave Warriors And Ruthless Alphas

* Surprise!!

* Also, this might be a rumor, but I think we might start getting FREQUENT updates seeing as the date for going premium is coming soon. Again, it's just a rumor hihi.

[SICARIO]

"Alpha Jer?" one of the alphas greeted as they stared at the man before them who had just walked in with his wife. He looked nothing like the psycho they had stepped out to watch barely ten minutes ago. The man before them was different, completely different.

Instead, he was the version of Jeremiah that they were all familiar with. The alpha that Sicario loved. The alpha who had promised to bring Sicario back to its former state, after the apparent tainting by its last alpha.

Jeremiah Warner was the alpha who had promised to clean up every mess Hawi had made. But then that was something that even he couldn't clean up. It hadn't been Hawi's mess in the first place, which made all of this just a stunt to anyone who knew what was going on in Sicario.

Then again, no one was counting, right? Hawi was formidable, and only an insane person would go against her, even in death. Perhaps Jer was willing to risk that, given the determination on his face.

Either he had to be the dumbest person in the realm or he just didn't care about it anymore.

"Hello, Alpha Nico. Nice to see you," Jer greeted as he walked to the podium where his elite warriors were waiting.

They had set up just one seat for Malika, since she had been the one to come and address them as she had mentioned earlier. However, now that Jer was here, one of the people among the warriors cast a spell and another chair showed up, surprising everyone.

It wasn't something that they would have expected in a normal Sicario and frankly, it got the pack leaders antsy.

No one had known that Sicario had a warlock and now it seemed like there truly was one. If they had had this woman from the beginning, it would have been easier for them to tell if Hawi had been the one to kill Luna Eniola Sicario.

Malika wasn't surprised to see that.

He would be fine eventually, wouldn't he?

"Make it quick. We have packs to run instead of spending our time watching you yap about the woman who murdered her mother. Unless you are talking about some other queen. Last I checked, Sicario only had one queen, the banished psycho, Awuor Hawi Sicario.

"But hey, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong," Rukiya said and the alphas in the room instantly prepared themselves for an attack.

They knew that Rukiya Greyson was dangerous and they knew that something had to have triggered the woman for her to be that loud at a damn funeral. Or maybe she was just tired of what she was hearing and the chaos she had witnessed outside, right?

"Well," Jer began, with a strained voice as he looked between Malika and Rukiya.

He could tell that Malika was harmless and that Rukiya Greyson would probably try to attack Malika. So once again, he decided it was a really good idea to profess his undying love for his woman in front of everyone, again.

"Malika Warner is my queen and the reigning luna of this pack, Alpha Rukiya. In my absence, she has every right to run the pack and make sure everything runs smoothly. I know you're used to the rejection, Awuor, but this is the new order.

"I even saw you at my wedding, didn't I?" Jer asked and Malika held back the urge to snicker. These two were disastrous, but she loved what Rukiya was doing. Hell, if she had the power, she could join Malika.

Elodie, who was also watching on the other end, just let out a laugh as she watched Jer and Rukiya banter in front of so many pack leaders. It was crazy, but then wasn't Rukiya Greyson the mother of crazies?

"I was at your wedding, but you called her your WIFE. Anyway, get on with it. We have wasted enough time here since morning. We have other issues other than assembling here to mourn when you are high as fuck," Rukiya said and everyone stared at the woman in shock.

She was picking a fight and it was obvious. Hell, she wasn't even hiding it anymore.

The pack leaders knew that Rukiya was right, though the way she was going at it was just world and unhinged. This was supposed to be a funeral wake though if they weren't careful, it would turn into a full-scale war, especially with the Greyson warriors at the Sicario gates.

"As my alpha was saying, alpha Rukiya. The Luna is here, they are all here. Now if you would be so kind as to shut up and let everything proceed as planned, we will not waste your time," Elodie suddenly said and everyone let out gasps.
