[SICARIO]
In the Sicario alpha's office, the sudden arriNovelFireal of the alpha and his beta was something unexpected but thankfully, no one was in the room. If anything, it was like they had just come from a mission and were now taking a rest.
The only problem was that they had a psycho who wanted to kill them, one who wouldn't rest until she had their heads off; whatever her mission there was. It was a crazy time for them, but what else could they do?
"That was so fucking slow, dammit. Why the hell did you sputter blood in the portal? You do realize she was the one who could help us sort things out?" Dom asked when they found themselves in the alpha's office.
He was worried about what he had done, especially now that they had no warlock to keep them sane, or so Dom thought. But even with a new warlock, Jer's dumb state wasn't going to be any better.
He was always the last one to know things, something that he had decided for himself because he didn't want to be burdened by the responsibilities that came with being an alpha.
Logically he should have been the alpha, but instead, he had let Jer take his position, a sign of just how unready he was.
"If you want to mourn the warlock, go ahead. That woman is the fake Awuor's problem and a good distraction. Without her, we wouldn't have been able to escape there especially now that your father killed himself, a weak move by the way.
"Besides, we heard the rubble. There are no more entries to the tunnels. All the evidence is buried. No one will know shit," Jer said as he grabbed the bottle of alcohol on his desk and chugged it down.
He had been so stressed about everything that we couldn't think straight. He had a feeling that there was more coming, but he couldn't spell it out, because then it would confirm his fears and honestly, he wasn't strong enough to deal with that.
"You heard the woman. What if she goes for your Malika?" Dom asked worriedly, and Jer stared at her like he wasn't really in the mood for that. He couldn't think about his woman being harmed by the psycho they had just interacted with.
It was a huge risk and his Malika didn't stand a chance whatsoever. It was like forcing a cat into the rain when there was a snowstorm in the mix. It wasn't pleasant and Jer wouldn't want to risk his Malika, his love.
"Malika is as safe as she should be. She is with Elodie. That warrior won't hurt my mate. She knows better by now," Jer said confidently and Dom just shook his head. This man was unbelievable.
Did he even believe the words coming out of his mouth if he was just talking because he could? The longer he interacted with Jer, the more Dom was sure this man relay had no clue about the magnitude of just how fucked they were.
Jer was still grasping at straws when their sanity was up for grabs in a market that had psychos and psychos only. Perhaps choosing to partner with Jer was the worst decision he had ever made but was it too early for Dom to make that assumption?
"You both go ahead to where the Greyson army is. I need to check something," Mbali suddenly said and Malika and Rukiya stared at her questionably. What the heck was she even on this time?
"What are you up to this time? Hawi wasn't there. I would have known," Rukia said and Mbali just sighed. Of course, they were all desperate but what she was after, wasn't going to take time.
"Trust me. I will be out in seconds," Mbali said before she disappeared again, leaving Malika and Rukiya walking back to the Greyson camp. They didn't have much of a choice but to trust her anyway.

[Now]
When she left the protector and the cruel alpha, Mbali had portaled into the Sicario pack house and more specifically the direction of the alpha's office. She had a feeling that she would meet her desired culprits there.
So, she wasn't shocked when she saw Jer walk out like he hadn't fucked up Hawi even more. Without hesitating, she rushed to the alpha who was sure he was seeing things, given he was seeing Mbali of all the people, who was currently his greatest fear.
"Hello Jer. I believe you have something that belongs to me," Mbali said as she suddenly grabbed Jer and dragged him back to the alpha's office, where she materialized.
The warriors who were in the hallways staring at their alpha thought he was possessed and downplayed his shocked shriek. They had seen their alpha act crazier than usual in the past two weeks and frankly, this wasn't even surprising to them anymore.
"Hello Dominic," Mbali said to Dom who had been excited when the door opened. He had been so ready to laugh at Jer for being a coward.
However, seeing Mbali there, covered in the stench of the dungeons, and red dust, they knew they were fucked.
