The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109: ARE YOU OKAY?

Because the carriage had been destroyed, Iris needed to ride a horse, but the problem was; they were short of a horse while she couldn’t ride one at all.

"I don’t know how..." Iris said apologetically. Once again, she felt like she was being a burden who couldn’t help with anything. Cane shouldn’t have brought her along. He would be able to go back to the pack before the new moon anyway, since he would move faster without her.

"In that case, you need to ride with someone," Will stated, that was the only solution for them. Even if they bought a horse, she wouldn’t be able to ride one all of a sudden.

"Yeah, I think I have to do that..." Iris’ first option was Redmond. She wouldn’t dare to ask Cane to let her ride with him. "I will ask Redmond."

Will then glanced over his shoulder and sighed to see Redmond and Ethan were still bickering. "I think I need to go and stop them before they kill each other," he grumbled as he stood up.

Meanwhile, Iris repacked the rations in two bags, so they wouldn’t have a problem carrying them. Thankfully, the troll was not a poisonous type of monster, thus they wouldn’t need to be worried if the rations made contact with them.

Iris tried to help with whatever she could, since she didn’t want to burden them with her presence.

Someone tapped her shoulder and when she turned around, it was Cane. He looked at her. "Are you hurt?" His dark eyes swept over her body briefly, checking for external injuries.

"No." Iris shook her head. It was nice of him to ask for her well being after the attack.

"The stone is still with you?"

Iris felt it inside her pocket. "Yes."

"Hm." _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

And after that he left.

So, it was not her he was worried about. He just didn’t want her to lose the stone during the battle. With that, Iris continued to rearrange the rations inside the bags.

After everything was well and the carcasses of the trolls had been taken care of, they were ready to continue their journey. It would be around two days before they could arrive in the Dew Moon pack.

"How come you cannot ride a horse?" Redmond asked with a frown. "I saw you lingering around the stables when you were a child."

That must be the time when she befriended that boy from the stables. Though she read what he said, Iris pretended she didn’t hear anything and climbed onto the horse with his help. She was sitting behind him, holding his waist while trying to keep a distance between them, despite the small space.

"This won’t do," Redmond said, feeling irritated. "You will fall if you hold onto me like that."
