The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 462

Chapter 462: A TRAP (4)

Dyne couldn’t understand why most of the people in the pack couldn’t see Iris for who she was, but then he realized, he saw the Luna in a new light only after he spent a lot of time with her when they went to the capital city, while the rest of the pack members didn’t have the same opportunity, thus the image of Iris as Gerald’s daughter still etched so deeply in their minds.

"Here, drink this," Dyne said, as he gave her his waterskin. Her lips were chapped. Her eyes lit up at the sight of water, but she still looked hesitant, until Dyne got off from his horse and handed it to her. "Drink."

Without a second thought, she drank all the water inside and looked at him sheepishly when she gave back the empty waterskin.

"Sorry," she said in a small voice. "I finished the water."

"It’s okay." They would come across another brook later and could get more water. "Alpha Dristan didn’t let you drink?"

The woman lowered her head. "He is upset."

It was a common practice, whenever your master was angry, they would vent it out on someone and this woman was the best victim. Alpha Dristan didn’t have any reason to not give her water, he only wanted to see her suffering.

Dyne was very familiar with that practice.

"Come, ride with me."

The young woman shook her head. "The Alpha didn’t allow me, he told me to run."

Dyne frowned. "A moment." He then went to Iris, who was talking with Lady Cyan. He could see how uncomfortable she was. "Luna," Dyne called Iris and told her what happened.

"Tell her, It’s okay, Alpha Cane will talk to Alpha Dristan." It Was an insignificant matter when their lives were in danger. Alpha Dristan wouldn’t make a fuss over this trivial thing when he had to rely on Cane heavily in this situation.

"Okay ," Dyne said joyfully, as he went back to the young woman and convinced her to ride with him. In the end, she relented and got on the horse with him.

Meanwhile, Lady Cyan made small talk with Iris, where one could see how she was dancing around the actual topic.

"Can you feel it? The weather is good, right?" Lady Cyan asked with her cheerful voice, but Iris caught her meaningful glance and knew exactly what she referred to.

"Yes, the weather is good," Iris replied monotonously. She then glanced at her mate and saw how Cane, the King and Alpha Dristan conversed about something. She couldn’t read what they were saying, as she rode behind them.

"Do you think we can catch a beast before the sun sets?"

"I thought we were here hunting for white foxes." Iris could feel strong discomfort in her chest as they rode closer to the black magic stones.
