The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25: IT WAS THE QUEEN

The white fox was a rare animal in this continent and could only be seen near mountain areas, which was not much.

However, there was another meaning to when someone gave a fox as a gift.

It could be interpreted as a warning, or as a revenge and for Cane to give the king a bloody fox, it was clear to see that his intention was the latter, though in this scenario, since they were out hunting in the forest, it could mean completely nothing.

For now, Cane was messing up with his mind.

"Its skin will make good gloves for the queen," Cane said, the fox was still dripping blood from its eye as the red liquid dyed the ground.

King Aeon regained his composure and smiled, as he called one of his men to take the gift from the alpha.

"I thank you for that." He looked unabashed from outside, but inside, he was seething for such a malicious gesture.

"You have graced this pack with your presence, of course, I will extend the kindness." Cane mounted his horse again and rode ahead of him.

Aeon was the King, but Alpha Cane looked more dominant than him. Probably because of a decade of hardship, he looked tougher and harder to the people around him. The glaring scars on his face enhanced that poise further for him.

"I can appoint someone as the acting alpha for the Blue Moon pack, I can suggest some suitable candidates for you." King Aeon caught up with Cane.

He tilted his head and listened to what this king wanted to say. "And who will be that?"

"We can put Mason, late Alpha Gerald’s son, as the alpha of the pack." King Aeon shamefully suggested that, which only enraged the people from the Howling Wolf pack even further.

They were steaming with anger to hear such a suggestion was even made. How could this king be so dense enough to not know that the fruit wouldn’t fall far away from the tree?

However, just like usual, Cane didn’t show any emotions when he heard that. He was exceptionally calm when he answered.

"I am afraid Mason is not up to the task, Uncle," Cane said. He even gave the king a small smile when he addressed him as his uncle, this almost felt like an inner joke to him.

King Aeon stopped his horse in front of Cane’s and then proceeded to ask him about the reason for the objection. "I have not seen him since I arrived in this pack."

"Oh, he has been unwell for the last few days, so he is resting now." Cane raised his bow and took his arrow, before he fixed the arrow and aimed at a deer a little bit far from them. He shot and he got what he wanted.

Two guards rushed over to get his game.

"I want to see him, if he is unwell, it is only right for me to go and visit him, since I am here."
