The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184: ARIA (3)

Redmond intentionally blended with the other warriors to scour the whole mountain in order to find Iris and the lycan. He avoided Jace and Ethan, because he didn’t want to have ’the talk’ with them after what he had witnessed last night. His mind was a mess and he would have an outburst if they started to talk now.

It was a lycan! Cane shifted into a lycan! He didn’t see it wrongly.

When that happened, he stood right at the side and was too stunned to speak, or give any reaction. He remembered the last report from his subordinate who said a lycan killed a thousand of his warriors that night.

He didn’t believe him then. He thought it was an error and the messenger had written nonsense out of his wits.

But now, he knew it was not a wrong message. It was true and it was Cane who had killed them all.

"Are you okay?" Lyle approached Redmond. He was a warrior of the Blue Moon pack and Redmond’s second in command.

"Yeah," Redmond replied curtly and from the corner of his eyes, he could see Ethan watching him. He ignored that gaze. "Did you find something?"

"No," Lyle growled. "This mountain is so big, there are so many monsters here. If they really entered the mountain range, don’t you think that they would have died by now?" Since they started climbing up this mountain, they had lost three men and all of this was because Jace let their people take the brunt when the monsters attacked them.

The grudge between the two packs would never die down, and now that the Howling Wolf pack rose to its glory once again, the warriors from the Blue Moon pack had to suffer.

"Don’t you think this is an opportunity for us to plan a coup?" Lyle lowered his voice, until it was only Redmond that could hear him. "We can..."

Yet, before Lyle could continue with his conspiracy plans, Redmond shot him down.

"We are not talking about that. Our Luna is out there, in danger and it is our responsibility to find her," Redmond said sternly, as he moved away from him and shifted into his beast form.

Lyle pressed his lips into a thin line. He didn’t like their arrangement now and thought Iris didn’t fit the role at all. She was a Luna for Redmond, but not him. It was Redmond who had pledged to her.

=============================

Aria woke up with a start, she opened her eyes and abruptly sat up, but she immediately grimaced because she felt so sore down there. Her head was aching so badly and she felt like the entire room was spinning around.

"You finally woke up, here, drink this."

Aria whipped her head around when she heard a familiar voice and the moment she saw the sorcerer’s warm smile, she remembered what had transpired between them. The memories rushed back to her in detail.

She blanched at the realization of what she had done with him. Not only did she put Cane’s life in danger, but she actually betrayed him by sleeping with the person that harmed him.

"How long have I been out for?" Aria gritted her teeth when she saw the dark sky. _{freewёbnoνel.com}
