The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249: TOUCH ME AND I AM GOING TO KILL YOU

"Alpha. Sabian, Sir Lou’s personal servant, is here, he wants to relay a message from his master," Trion said from behind the closed door.

Meanwhile, Cane was staring at the dark wisp that emanated from his hands, his expression looked so bleak, as all blood drained from his face. He needed to meet with the sorcerer again and ask him about this, he must know something.

But, the problem was; he couldn’t leave the palace grounds the few following days with how messy the palace was after the second monster attack.

The ceremony for him and Iris most likely would be canceled or postponed. Cane couldn’t care less about that, because that was not his main reason to be here, but the fact that they had to stay a little bit longer in the capital city irked him to no end.

"Alpha?" Trion knocked on the door again because there was no answer from inside the room.

"Don’t come!" Cane growled, he snapped back when he saw the door handle being twisted, as the warrior tried to enter the room. He balled his fists tightly, but the dark wisp didn’t disappear. "Ask him what he wants, I don’t wish to see anyone for the meantime!"

Trion stopped himself from opening the door and backed away to relay what the Alpha said. He came back a little later to deliver the message.

"Sabian said that his master, Sir Lou, wishes to see you, he wants to discuss the repayment that you promised him," Trion informed the Alpha from behind the door.

"I will meet him tomorrow evening," Cane replied, his eyes still fixed on the dark wisp emanating from his palms, as his beating heart rang in his ears.

Trion then hesitated when he spoke again. "Sir Lou wishes to see both you and the Luna."

When Cane heard that, his sharp gaze shifted toward the closed door, he glared at that innocent piece of wood, as if it had wronged him and somehow, Trion grimaced, as though he could feel the enmity from his Alpha.

He waited for a long time before the reply came.

"She is sick!" The answer was very curt, but Trion didn’t dare to question him again. He delivered the message to Sabian and told the old man that.

======================================

"When You have a lot to protect, sometimes, you have no choice but to be heartless," the sorcerer clicked his tongue in annoyance when he received the letter from Cane.

Along with the letter, he got a strand of hair and the magic stone, as he snickered derisively.

"You threatened to take me to the Holy Kingdom for using black magic, but now you are ordering me to perform it again?" The sorcerer shook his head. "You really want to stir trouble."

For hours, Cane stayed in the same position, waiting for the dark wisp to disappear. He even skipped dinner and even though one of his warriors told him that he was being summoned by the King, he simply told him to pass the message he was not there, thus aside from his people, no one knew about his whereabouts.

Only after an hour past midnight and Cane was about to give up and order someone to bring Iris there, the dark wisp gradually dissipated and faded away, eventually, it disappeared.

"Five hours." It took five hours to make the dark wisp disappear without Iris’ help.

However, he was not sure whether the duration was a concrete or tentative thing. It could be longer next time and the time it would appear was very unpredictable, not like when he shifted into his lycan form.

He felt spent when he finally stood up and left the room, he wanted to return to his bedroom and lay down next to his mate as soon as possible.

There were too many things that happened and he had not had a blink of sleep since yesterday night.

Therefore, when he saw Nala blocking his way in the corridor, he felt this urge to smack her head against the wall to get rid of this woman.

"Alpha, I didn’t see you in the dining room, have you eaten?" Nala asked in her sweet voice. She was still under the mission to get on his good side and her father insisted on the importance of this assignment for their family.

"Touch me and I am going to kill you," Cane warned her darkly when Nala moved closer to him.
