The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234: THE BLIND FATE

Iris had another dream about the five swords, but this time, she saw a person in the distance, yet before she could look at them clearly, she was woken up because Cane shook her shoulder lightly.

Her surroundings were still so dark, it was still night, but they were in the outskirts of the capital city. There were rarely houses along this street. People here didn’t attend the party in the palace, because they didn’t have decent enough dresses and clothes to wear. They were so poor, as if this was the abandoned part of the capital city.

Cane jumped down from the horse before he helped Iris to get down as well, he took her hand, as they walked.

But knowing him, it was not clear whether he did this because he didn’t want her to get lost and run into trouble, or for the sake of himself, because he was worried that the black wisp would suddenly appear without him knowing it.

Iris didn’t think Cane was someone that would do something unnecessary, thus the latter option seemed to be most likely.

She looked around her, but the hoodie that covered half of her face obstructed her vision considerably, yet the moment she was about to pull it back slightly, Cane stopped her by placing his hand on her head again. She was sure that he said something, but she couldn’t hear it.

In the end, the only thing she could see was the ground beneath her feet. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

"Is he here?" Cane asked Leros, who was standing in front of a rickety house.

"Yes, he is inside with Clad." Leros nodded.

Leros had gone to the capital city first, while Clad joined him after they arrived, because they had a tip this man was here, and it didn’t take long for them to find this person.

"Hm." Cane then entered the rickety house that looked like walls of which would be blown away by a harsh wind, but Will stopped him.

"Will you bring her with you, Alpha?" Will couldn’t help but ask, he and the others had been wondering why Iris was here with them, so had Leros. The spy didn’t really like Iris and thought, even keeping the reason being Gerald’s daughter aside, her personality really didn’t suit to be a luna of the pack. She was too timid and couldn’t help Cane with anything. She would only be a burden.

"Yes," Cane replied curtly, but he didn’t explain further.

Since they could put their faith in him when they were being tortured and he had been hopeless to save them, then right now they had their blind faith in him, albeit Cane didn’t say or explain anything. Their main focus was to complete a job well regardless of the task given.

Will said nothing and with Avid, Trion and Leros, he waited outside of the house. Not long after that, Clad too joined them, thus right now, there were only the three of them inside.

Cane stepped in his line of sight to block his gaze, which annoyed the sorcerer, as he glared at him again.

"If you have a magic user with you, why do you need me?!" He snapped. "Let me go now!"

Magic user. This was not the first time a sorcerer assumed Iris was a magic user. In the auction room, when he got his tattoo in order to gain access to the black market, the sorcerer there also said the same thing. Of course, he didn’t miss that little detail, which made Cane start to think about digging deeper into Iris’ background.

There was no way a shifter parent gave birth to a magic user, it had never happened before and there was no case like that in this realm.

However, there was another urgent matter that he needed to take care of first.

"What did you do to me?" Cane asked him sternly, not allowing him to change the topic.

"What? You regret it now?! I have told you before about the consequences!" He scoffed derisively. "You are the one who said it didn’t matter whether you turned into a lycan or a monster as long as you can free your people!"
