The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103: BLOODY WOLF PACK

The second and the third floor of this inn were rooms, while the first floor was a bar and restaurant, where travelers would stop to get something to eat and drink.

Iris followed him but it was too crowded for her to move freely while most of these men were mercenaries and rogues. They looked at her with a questioning look, since it was rare to see a young woman in such a place.

"Al... Cane..." Iris tried to call him when she couldn’t get past a few burly men, who looked so drunk, as they chatted with each other with loud voices. "Excuse me, move please..."

Iris tried to push them away, but they barely moved. How could these men be so big and strong? She tried to find another way, but this place was so crowded.

"Move please!" Iris grew agitated because she couldn’t see Cane anymore. Where did he go? In any case, if she couldn’t find him, she would return to her bedroom and wait for him there. "Can you move please?!"

The men finally paid attention to her, there were six men in her way as they chatted happily in this narrowed lane.

"What is it? There is a young woman here?" A bald man looked down at her with knitted brows.

"Move please, I want to go through." Iris craned her neck to look past his shoulder, but he was too tall for her. She could only see the heads of the people behind him.

"Who are you with?" The first man asked, seemingly interested.

Iris looked at the man, but she didn’t answer him. She didn’t have the obligation to do so.

"Where do you want to go?" The man moved toward her instead, cornering her.

At this, an alarm set off in her mind. Though this was the first time for Iris to go to such a place, she was not really clueless.

"My mate is waiting for me," Iris said and thankfully her voice didn’t falter.

"Your mate? What kind of mate will leave their other half alone in this kind of place?" The man snickered, while the other five intentionally blocked her way with their bodies.

"Move away or my mate will kill you all!" Alright, she heard this sentence when she witnessed her father torture one of the slaves in the past and the woman said that powerfully, the memory of that moment still etched in her mind.

However, all of them let out a boisterous laugh upon hearing her and grinned from ear to ear, not taking what she was saying to heart.

"Really? I do want to know how strong your mate is." The bald man stretched out his hand, about to touch Iris, but she swatted his hand away and looked at him with disdain.

"Thank you," Iris said timidly, but Cane said nothing and grabbed her hand. This time, he walked slower and made sure Iris kept up with him.

At this point, she was still clueless as to where he wanted to bring her.

But right in front of the inn, there was a tavern and Cane was heading there. Before they entered, he stopped and turned around to face her. "You already learned how to distinguish water magic stones, right?"

Iris nodded at that question.

And with that, Cane took her into the tavern, where there was only a man inside. He was sitting alone with a small package in front of him. When Cane and Iris entered, he lifted his head and grinned at them.

He looked like he was in his mid-fifties and had a scar on his forehead with his grey hair that looked so messy. He was travel worn, but his eyes lit up brilliantly at the sight of them.

"Ah! Finally, you came!" The man looked cheerful and let them both sit at his table. "Here, here, have a look!"

He then tipped the package upside down and its contents scattered on the table, which made Iris frown.
