[MBALI]
[Still The Lonely Night… A MONTH BEFORE THE GREAT SICARIO WAR]
"You don't need a stake for that," Amina said softly. A part of her was still hoping that all would be well, that the world would be all shiny for them. She knew it was a long gamble, but then she couldn't help wanting to be there for her mate.
She just wanted to spend more time with Mbali, even though shit had gotten complicated. Nothing she had done so far warranted the trust she was hoping for and maybe that was why she was pulling back too.
Amina was a lot of things but then to Mbali, she was the one person Mbali didn't want to see.
"Great. I'll just use my blades then," Mbali said spitefully as she got out her blades.
She was sick and tired of being treated warmly by the person who had broken her heart. Amina was supposed to be a really bad person to make Mbali hate her with ease, and yet she had turned out differently.
