[HAWI]
"You still hide in the same spot, sister," Elodie said when she reached the former Sicario alpha's suite and found Hawi standing on the balcony that was hidden from everyone except those who knew about its existence.
It was one of the places Hawi always ran to whenever she was angry, confused or needed to clear her head without anyone coming after her.
She always did that with ease and her parents hadn't once complained because they knew she liked it there from a young age. After all, she was still their baby, no matter her age, right?
"The sky is always prettier from this side of the world," Hawi said, not even turning to look at her sister. She was still covered in blood and her hair was disheveled, almost like she had been pulling it for a while.
It was something that Elodie hated, btu the, she had to listen and know what the fuck happened for her sister to be in such a state, especially since Rukiya had refused to say anything.
"What happened between the two of you?" Elodie asked as she gently held her sister's shoulder and forced her to look at her.
She could smell the stench of blood from a distance and while the footsteps had given it away, the streaks on Hawaii's face still managed to surprise the warrior. Maybe she would be able to help her best form this time, right?
"I didn't run away if that's what was in your head," Hawi said softly and Elodie stared at her softly. She had always seen Hawi at her worst and when she was determined to make everything disappear. And that wasn't what Elodie was seeing today.
Hawi was calm, way too calm for someone who had had a disagreement with her mate. And while that should have scared Elodie or even worried her, it relaxed her. It was clear that no matter what happened, Hawi was slowly learning from the experiences.
She was embracing reality, however difficult that was and it was worth being proud of, really.
"...Because it hasn't shown since you fell for the Greyson girl. And yes, a date and flowers will do you both some good. If possible, take her out of Sicario. This place smells like death and war.
"Give her a change of environment, and before you talk about us... Malika, Mbali and I will be taking care of Sicario along with Asmodeus. As for your security, the two of you are too crazy for even the goddess to try and fuck around with you.
"The Goddess can only rest the soul of whoever tries to mess up your date. Chin up, little sister. You look prettier with a smile, alright?" Elodie said and Hawi just stared sheepishly like she was with her older sister.
Well, Elodie had always stepped in to be that for her more times than Hawi could count.
She was always there to help Hawi fix herself up and make things easier for her. Funny how years later they were still the same souls that adored each other more than life could ever comprehend.
"What if she doesn't like it?" Hawi asked Elodie to snirt this time.
"Y'know when we asked what was wrong, she said you wanted to be with the wolves and that she had been with Jer down there which was why she was crying? She's already defending you even when you fight.
"She will definitely like it, I know that. She's a keeper," Elodie said as she patted her sister on her shoulder. She could tell that Hawi was relaxing more around Rukiya and it was admirable.
She and the rest of their team and allies could only hope that they had a healthy relationship because then it would be easier for the both of them to get to fulfill their missions and their happily ever after.
"Alright. I'll clean up and start thinking of places," Hawi said and Elodie whipped up a long list of hotels in the human lands making Hawi stare at her like there were a thousand things wrong with the woman, but was there?
"You don't have to say thank you... Just swear you won't fuck each other for twelve days," Elodie said as she walked away and Hawi just let out a light laugh. Her sister was nits but at the same time, Elodie was right.
She could fix this if they just talked, right?
