The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 113

Chapter 113: SOMETHING THAT HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE

Iris was staring at the magic stone in her hand when something caught her attention. There was this small flickering thing inside of the stone, and when she looked at it closely, she found out that there was a little flame inside it.

She didn’t realize it before, but somehow the flame looked like it was alive, if it made any sense, because right now, Iris could see it was flickering as if it was breathing.

She was fascinated by the sight and forgot about her fear of darkness. She was entranced and realized the little fire grew stronger. The flicker was following her breathing rhythm, but then it became clearer and bigger, as if there was something moving inside, not just breathing.

Iris frowned and then nudged the stone, rolled it on her palm with her finger and a second later, it cracked. "Huh?!" She was terrified to see the crack, because it wasn’t supposed to be like that.

A magic stone was not so frail, but it wasn’t the sturdiest stone either. Even so, there was no way a nudge would be able to leave a crack on it.

The crack became even bigger, but this time, it looked like there was something from inside that would come out. Iris blinked her eyes to look at it closely, now all of her attention fixed on it.

"How could this be possible..." she muttered under her breath, her mouth went agape to watch the process of hatching.

What is this? Magic stone is some kind of egg?

Iris was puzzled, but she watched a beautiful life come out of the small magic stone. She didn’t even realize that she was holding her breath, waiting to see what kind of creature would come out of this small stone.

From the size of it, Iris thought it would be the size of a worm.

But, once the little creature came out of it, she frowned so hard. What was this creature? Was it... a lizard?

The whole body of this baby lizard seemed on fire, the color reddish bright, but at the same time it was almost transparent, you could even see the white veins running through its tiny body.

While Iris was mesmerized by it, the little thing jumped from her palm and for something that was just born, if she could say that, it moved so fast, as it wriggled its tail.

For a moment, Iris was stunned, she watched the little thing move away, deeper into the cave, until she snapped and realized that little thing was a rare fire magic stone! Cane had told her to hold onto it. He even approached her earlier because he wanted to make sure that she still had the stone with her after the troll attack.

"Oh, no!" Iris immediately stood up in panic, because she couldn’t afford to lose the little thing. She stood up and hurriedly followed the flickering light that illuminated the little creature’s entire body.

It didn’t take her long to finally catch up to the little lizard, but now, the little creature hid behind a small crack in the stone wall and wouldn’t come out.

"Oh, don’t do this to me... come out now, okay?" Iris stretched out her hand, asking the little lizard to move to her palm, but it only tilted its little head. "Come here, little one."
