章 486: Break My Heart, As Always [4]

[RUKIYA]

[FLASHBACK]

[Still, The evening of Malika and Jer's Wedding]

"Oh, but I am, even if you hate me and want to kill me," Rukiya said with a light laugh, even though the pang in her heart wasn't making her life any easier.

She hated this, the way things had turned out and she hated that in a span of less than two years, Hawi had lost the parents she loved more than life.

Rukiya wanted to avenge Hawi but she also needed to be in a position that would let her be on the same side as Hawi, because otherwise, the wild woman would have considered her an enemy, and that wasn't what Rukiya wanted with Hawi.

"You're hurt, love, and it might get worse. Let me nurse you, Hawi. You can cuss at me later, please," Rukiya Greyson, the woman who had the pride of a hundred Alphas, gently pleaded with Hawi, as if her life depended on it.
