[HAWI]
"I think someone is trying to channel my magic. I feel like my energy is draining fast. I woke up with tears on my face and beside Hawi, which had never happened before. Hawi is fast asleep, but we both know she never sleeps.
"It's just a matter of time before she comes to check on me. Please tell me I'm being paranoid," Ruru said as she looked at Malika with hopeful eyes and the protector sighed, making the Greyson alpha stare at her curiously.
Malika looked like she was sick of life and everything in between, even when she got up and walked to the door near her door. It was almost like she knew what had happened and now she had a bastard to deal with.
It should have been comforting, but with a scared Rukiya following her and wondering what the fuck had just happened, Malika knew this wasn't the time for it. She would deal with the aftermath later, in the morning.
But then... It was morning already.
"Open up Nikolai. And you better not be dead because I need to kill you myself you worthless piece of shit who doesn't respect people's sleep. Fucking open up before I blow this door to bits!" Malika growled and Rukiya instinctively stepped back.
The guests in the hotel opened the doors to their rooms but when they saw the crazed Malika, they went back on, without even saying shit. It was like they were more worried about their sanity than knowing what the heck was happening.
"Nikolai Russel, I swear to the goddess if you don't open this door I will burn you worse than I did Atticus and torture you in the worst of ways you warlock piece of crap. I will count to three, if the door isn't open by then, you're fucked.
"Three..." Malika said, and Rukia stared at the protector. The woman was unhinged. Who the fuck started counting from three when she had just given the order. But then at the same time, her madness seemed to have worked because the door opened.
Malika didn't wait for it to fully open, because she pushed the door inside, making sure it slapped Nikolai's face a little too hard. Malika had seen Nikolao crawling and frankly, that didn't matter to her.
Ruru was still tired so she took a seat in the room. Seeing as this was going to take a while. She didn't know if the man was her uncle for sure just because he had a Russel for a last name, but she also knew that Malika wouldn't have been this worked up.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to. I didn't, please," Nik said and Malika scoffed at the audacity the man had. She had wanted him. She had told him that he would die if he tried that shit with Rukiya and even then he had thought it would be easier?
What the fuck was he even on? For people who were supposed to be smart and sly, this shadow warlock was doing a good job being a spineless swine. Even if that was what he wanted to show Malika, all of this just didn't make any sense.
He had gone too far with his antics and he would learn the hard way,
"I told you not to touch her. I wanted you against touching her. You thought I was bluffing so you decided to channel her? Tell me, how does your stomach feel? Is the ball in there already full enough, or you'd I stomp on it to make it easier for you?" Malika asked.
She was done being nice because this man was nothing but a pain in her ass. Maybe she would just rid her of him, right? It would make things a lot easier and it would explain a lot of things.
"What do you mean?" Rukiya asked when she saw the horrified face that Nik was wearing. It was like he had come face to face with death, and wanted to ask for forgiveness, but didn't have the courage or even the strength to ask for it.
He was doomed either way anyway, right?
"Well, Rukiya Greyson, say hello to your uncle, Nikolai Russel. He channelled your magic and I'm betting he's about to disappear back to his home in less than five seconds," Malika said as she lifted her leg and kicked Nik in the shin.
Her calculations were right because Rukia's magic helped Nik get up and disappear.
But as he disappeared, Hawi also did.
