The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106: WE CAN’T DO THAT

It happened so fast and Iris couldn’t follow what happened in that split second, because the next thing that she saw was Cane’s fingers wrapping around the man’s neck, threatening to snap his head off, while pushing her behind his back.

Cane said nothing, but his eyes were so cold. They were filled with murderous intention for that man’s impertinent move.

"If I want to kill her, I will do it myself. I don’t need your help." His voice was colder than the night’s wind. Coupled with his unapproachable tone, it made the man unable to speak.

"Y- Yes alpha," The man answered with so much difficulty. Cane humbled him down as easily as that and this astonished the other people.

The last time they saw him was when he was just fifteen years old, a young boy, who followed his father around to greet the other alphas and barely understood the duty of the title, but right now, he looked completely different from the one in their memory.

Only after hearing that timid voice, did Cane let go of his neck and speak coldly again. "Lead the way."

Iris, on the other hand, could only stick closely to Cane when she knew these people harbored ill intentions toward her just because she was her father’s daughter.

But, aside from that, Iris didn’t understand why Cane didn’t look happy to meet them when they looked like they would follow anything that they were told to do. Cane even looked... angry. But Iris didn’t dare to ask.

The old man walked to her left side, where there was a door before he opened it. Apparently, the six of them had been living in this secluded place and only came out when they learned Cane came to this district.

At first, they didn’t believe it, until they saw it themselves.

The coin told them that Cane also came here to look for them, the reminder of his father’s spies.

Inside the house, which looked like a storage room that was turned into a living place, there was a round table with six chairs in the first room.

There were not many things that you could see here, some bookshelves near one of the walls while a cabinet was erected against another. Several parchments were stuck on the remaining walls, it seemed those things carried important information that they had gathered all this time.

"Have a seat, Alpha." The old man brought a chair for him once they were inside, but he didn’t give any to Iris, which meant they wanted her to stand up while they talked.

All of them had their own respective chairs, while none for her. Actually, she didn’t mind it. It was not enough of an act that would offend her in this kind of situation.

However, to her surprise, Cane pulled her and sat her down on the chair that the old man brought for him, while he looked around this tiny room. He stopped at the wall, where there were a few parchments of information stuck and read all of them.

The six men were puzzled to see this, while Iris could only lower her head and fiddle with the hem of her dress. She was able to feel how their stares bored holes into her head. They despised her, that was for sure.
