The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398: IS SHE A RUNT TO BEGIN WITH?

Cane was on alert when he saw the sudden change in her expression. "What did you see?" He was clueless as to what Iris was going to say.

Iris bit her lips and stopped walking again. "The wisp."

"Wisp?" Cane instinctively glanced at his hands, thinking it appeared again, but there was nothing. It would ruin a lot of things if it appeared now under hundreds to thousands of watchful eyes. Deep down, he had this belief; as long as he was with her, the dark wisp would never appear. "What do you mean by the wisp?"

"I... I was... he was... he was touching me when I saw it..." Her tongue failed her when this disgusting feeling rushed back to her mind as she tried to recall that particular moment, when she revived the moment she wanted to forget the most.

If it was not for that weird thing and the feeling she felt upon seeing the wisp, she would have forced herself subconsciously to forget everything that happened to her, but that certain moment prevented her from doing so.

"What wisp did you see?" Seeing her reaction, Cane immediately knew which moment she was trying to talk about, thus he wanted her to focus on the wisp, instead of anything else. "You saw a wisp?"

Iris nodded. "The wisp was in the color of grey, dark grey..."

"It’s different from the wisp that came from me?"

"It’s different."

Cane’s jaw hardened. "Tell me more."

Iris tried to recollect her memories and only focus on the dark grey wisp. How the wisp took a wolf’s shape and how she felt when she saw the wisp. She felt this deep hatred and disgust as her instinct told her to kill it.

She didn’t know how to kill a smoke that was in the form of a wolf, but she did it instinctively.

"... it caused pain to him." Iris balled her fists to keep her emotions in check, until she could feel her nails embedding into her palms. "He was in pain."

Cane’s eyes dimmed slightly, as he watched how Iris was struggling to remember the details of that horrendous moment, but at the same time, he recalled Alpha Gill’s last moments. They tied him with silver chains to prevent him from shifting into his beast.

But, what was about the dark grey wisp that took the shape of a wolf? Was that... was that even possible?

The Crown Prince was indeed still a baby and had a long way to go before he could sit on the throne, but this would also give the King a reason to enjoy the crown on his head a little bit longer.

"What are they doing?" Alpha Dristan narrowed his eyes on the carriage. "Send someone to go closer and see if they could find something."

Koda nodded and went to get the order done. He glanced at the Alpha for a brief moment and greed lit up his eyes.

One day, he would be the King’s grandfather and he wouldn’t have to accept any orders from anyone anymore.

Meanwhile, it took Haco a little bit longer to get his ass to the carriage, as he dragged his feet to meet with Cane. He had heard that Iris had woken up, which meant he could keep his fingers intact. He had also seen her walking around fine earlier, but he still dreaded the threat from the Alpha. He knew Cane meant every word he said at that moment and that was terrifying.

"Took you long enough," Cane said when Haco finally entered the carriage. This carriage was spacious enough to accommodate six people inside and the decoration was very extravagant, since Alpha Gill was really into luxurious things.

While Cane and Iris sat side by side, Haco sat in front of them.

"I am already very old, I can’t walk so fast, my back is killing me, my vision is blurry. I am so weak now," Haco said pitifully.
