《Behind the mask - Erik Killmonger》Chapter 08

'Are you crazy!? I am not going to the Jabari tribe. Forget it.' He takes my hands in his. 'I want you safe. Even If I have to drag you to there I will.' My knees almost give up on me. I can't get enough of him. 'If you come with us, I will go.' He nods and places a kiss on my forehead. 'Let's go, my queen.'

We start our journey to the Jabari tribe. Me and Erik walk ahead of the group. I would be lying if I said that I didn't had to stop Erik and T'Challa from fighting each other every other minute. My mother walks next to me. 'Are you still mad at me?' I sigh. 'No. I forgive you but it still wasn't cool what you did.' 'I know and I'm sorry. How do you feel about going to your father's tribe?'

'I have mixed feelings. I don't want to go it all but Erik is forcing me. But on the other side I want answers from him.' She smiles. 'What are you smiling for?' 'You like him huh?'

I furrow my eyebrows. 'What? No, who told you that?' 'I mean it's obvious. When he tells you to do something, you do it. Whilst when I tell you to do something, you never listen. He is changing you N'Yarai.' I think about it. That I never listen to my mom is a well known fact. But do I really always listen to him?

'We're here!' Erik shouts. I look up and see the entrance all the way up the mountain. 'Why don't they have a lift? Ugh some people are so old school.' I laugh at Shuri's comment. 'See what technology does with you? It makes you lazy. Climb!' She rolls her eyes and begins climbing. I join her. Suddenly I feel a hand on my butt. I look down and see Erik grinning. 'You better get your nasty hands of me before I make you regret touching me.'

His grin grows bigger. 'Keep talking to me like that and imma touch you in more intimate places.' I twist my face up and rolls my eyes.

Once we are at the top T'Challa & Nakia come up to me. 'Yara do you think this is a good idea?' 'It's our only option T'Challa. Got a better idea?' He lets his head fall down in disappointment and shakes his head.

'I will have a bug infestation if you Wakandan insects keep coming.' M'Baku says while he appears from the Jabari cave.

Erik steps forward to talk to him but I push him back lighty. 'I have to do this.' He first looks at me with anger in his eyes. It softens when he looks me in my eyes.

As I step forward I feel a little hand on my chest. I look down and see N'Yarai looking at me with desperation in her eyes. My anger fades just by looking at her. 'I have to to this.' She says. I nod.

'M'Baku, king of the Jabari tribe. I am asking you if you and your tribe will accept the offer for us to temporarily live in your tribe.' He laughs and shakes his head.

'Now why would I want a foolish girl who claims I am her father to live with me?' 'Because she is your daughter.' My mother says as she erupts from the crowd. 'Ekene..' 'Hi M'Baku.'
