The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86: THE STORM (2)

Iris didn’t like violence. More so, when it couldn’t resolve anything. With Redmond hurting Aria, it would only intensify the tension between him and the alpha, so would be the case with the rest of the people. It would extend to her as well.

"Let her go!" Iris said sternly,. She could feel someone approaching her with a dark aura, there was no mistake it was Cane. All of them were very exhausted, thus there was no need for them to add more to their troubles.

"Are you kidding me?" Redmond narrowed his eyes at Iris, but then he groaned to see how serious she was. He didn’t release Aria gently, he pushed her away until her face kissed the wet ground before he straightened his back.

Dalia and Bian immediately rushed forward and helped Aria to stand up.

"How dare you!" Aria roared angrily. She saw Cane approaching them and started bawling her eyes just when he reached there.

"What is it?" He asked darkly, his eyes on Redmond.

"Can’t you see? She hurt the luna, I am just here to prevent that."

"Cane...!" Aria started wailing, as she approached Cane, but Iris beat her to it.

"I need to see Ania, I think I know how to eliminate the poison from her system, but don’t get your hopes too high. It’s just a theory." Iris was impatient, she didn’t let Aria talk first. The mistress could whine as long as she wanted later, not now, because this matter was way more important.

"How do you know that?" Cane narrowed his eyes. He raised his hand to signal Aria to stay quiet. It made her unable to utter even a single word out of shock, since he chose to listen to Iris over her.

"I read it in a book." Iris felt her reason was so weak. It was unreliable, but seeing how the situation was right now, they needed to do whatever they could at this moment. "But, I need the water magic stone that I found this afternoon."

Cane furrowed his brows, curious about what she was going to do with it, but Iris misunderstood his silence.

"I will find more water magic stones, I think I have started to get a grip on it."

Not wanting to bother about explaining the misunderstanding, Cane pulled out the water magic stone from his pocket and handed it to Iris, who immediately rushed toward Ania. Cane followed behind her, so did Aria and Hanna, along with Redmond.

"I read that water magic stones can detox poison." Iris sat down next to Ania’s body, as she gave the water magic stone to Ardand. The old healer looked so exhausted after a long journey, an attack and now they needed to go through the storm before they could arrive in their homeland.

It was indeed a very long way for them to be able to go home.

Ardand then put the water magic stone into Ania’s mouth before he used his healing power to heal her with the help of the magic stone. Inside Ania’s mouth, the stone turned into water, which seeped through her body.

"You found a water magic stone?!" Grace asked, as she came with Stone not too long after. Iris immediately stood up and gave her spot to her.

"Not me, but the luna," Ardand said. "Help me now. I am too old for this."

Grace grumbled something under her breath, but she stopped asking questions and started to help.

"Miss." Hanna stood next to Iris, as she hugged her, while Cane and the others watched the process of detoxification. Stone, on the other hand, looked like someone who had forgotten how to breathe. He didn’t move, he didn’t speak, but his eyes were fixed on his daughter’s frail body.

"She will be alright..." Iris said softly, as she hugged Hanna, this coldness made her a little bit dizzy and she couldn’t stop her teeth from clattering.

Not too far from her, Aria watched the whole thing unfold. She didn’t look pleased, she didn’t look happy at all. Even after Ardand and Grace said that Ania was no longer in danger and all of them cheered in delight, she didn’t share the same sentiment, instead, she glared at Iris with hostility.

She saved the little girl’s life for the second time.
