The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534: SATISFACTION

"Where is the Luna?" Eron asked Jace and Ethan who were waiting outside the dungeon. The two of them watched as Kaz left almost an hour ago, but they didn’t see Iris, they thought she was still talking to the other women, who were thrown to the dungeon along with Kaz.

However, when he returned with the sobbing Airi, Jill and the other two omegas, they were confused about Iris’ whereabouts.

"What do you mean?" Ethan and Jace frowned at Eron’s question. "She is supposed to be with you, right?"

"What? No." Eron shook his head. "Luna Iris said she will go out alone and told me to release them." He nodded at the four women, who looked so disheveled while crying silently.

Though they were not treated badly, going back to the dungeon was not something they would have imagined, once they were free from Alpha Gerald’s clutches. It was terrifying and brought back a lot of horrendous memories.

"No, she has not yet come out," Ethan said dumbfoundedly.

There was only one way to go out of the dungeon and knowing that the Beta and the Gamma were standing right at the entrance, Eron didn’t think much when he agreed to let the Luna walk out alone.

"She must be still inside," Jace said.

"Maybe she got lost." Ethan immediately entered the dungeon, as this place could be confusing. There were a few pathways that could lead you to different sections of the cell.

However, their hearts dropped to the ground when they heard a short, shrill scream from inside. It echoed throughout the corridors and then everything became quiet again.

"Shit!" Eron cursed under his breath, as the three of them immediately rushed in to figure out what was going on inside. Their blood became so cold, as their minds came up with the worst possible things that could happen.

Meanwhile, the four women still stood at the entrance of the dungeon, not sure what to do. They needed to thank the Luna because she was the one who had asked the Alpha to release them, Eron had emphasized this to them.

Eron said; if it was not because of the Luna, the Alpha probably would have forgotten about them all and they would still be rotting inside the jail.

"Should we wait?" Airi asked, she stared at the dimly lit dungeon. She didn’t want to stay there any longer, but then they still needed to thank the Luna.

On the other hand, Jace, Ethan and Eros found Iris sitting on the ground, in front of Mason’s cell, staring ahead with a blank expression.

"Iris!" Ethan was the first to reach her. He immediately dropped to his knees to check on her. "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?" He came closer because he smelled something suspicious, though it was very faint and he needed to be so close to be able to tell. "You are bleeding!"

"What?!" Eron came to check on Iris as well. "We need to take her to see Grace!"

"I am fine," Iris said in a light tone, as if she was talking about something that she didn’t have interest in. "I am on my monthly cycle."

"Oh." Eron and Jace then went quiet, as they understood what was that. They looked a little bit awkward.

"Are you sure you aren’t hurt anywhere? I heard a scream a while ago." Ethan was still worried. The scream didn’t last that long and now when he thought about that, it didn’t actually sound like Iris. "It was not you who had screamed?"

However, it was Jace, who answered that. "I think it’s him who screamed earlier." The Beta was standing in front of Mason’s cell, blocking Iris’ view of her brother.

"What happened to him?" Ethan stood up and checked on the bastard.

"He is dead," Jace said coldly. With one look, you could see life had left Mason’s body. His eyes opened so wide, as if he was in so much agony and his body twisted into a weird position.

"But... how?" Eron asked, he was about to go in and check Mason’s condition when Jace stopped him.

"Take the Luna out of the dungeon first. This is not a sight she wants to see." Jace took off his cloak and draped it around Iris’ body, as his tall figure still blocked the mortifying view of Mason’s dead body from her sight. "Are you okay?" Jace stared deeply into Iris’ blue eyes that were slightly dim.

"Yes," Iris replied calmly, which made Jace feel something was off with her, but he brushed it off as her being in so much shock upon seeing her brother’s dead body. After all, people had different ways to react to such shocking events. "I am fine."

"Good." Jace nodded. "Now, go back to the pack house with Eron, okay?"
