The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter

“Why do you have scars?” All of sudden, Iris changed the topic, as she looked at Cane in the eyes. She was still clutching to his sleeves. “Your father gave me,” Cane replied. He thought, Iris wouldn’t remember this conversation when she woke up. “That must be so painful.” “They are.” “Will the scars heal?” “I don’t think so.” The night indeed made you vulnerable and let you said something that you would never admit when it was bright. The obscurity softened your heart. “Too bad. You have a warm soul.” Iris frowned slightly. “I no longer have a soul.” He had sold his soul for the freedom of his people. There was nothing left of him right now. “Yes, you have, but you are in so much pain.” Iris blinked her eyes. “Your beast is in pain. You have so many scars.” “The only scars that I have is on my face.” Iris shook her head meekly. “I am not talking about your face. I am talking about your soul. Too bad, you are in so much pain… what my father and brother had done to you must be painful…” And after that, Iris closed her eyes and fell asleep. ====================== She is the daughter of an alpha who has killed his family, razed his pack and has also made his people slaves. Now, he has achieved revenge after ten years of being treated as a slave and was living a life that no one would ever imagine. Life akin to hell. And ten years later, Alpha Cane manages to take over and kill the alpha who has made the lives of his people worse than death. It was time for him to make the children of the alpha pay for what their father had done. Only… Iris was a runt and she was very different from her father.

THE ALPHA FEIGNED IGNORANCE

King Aeon had purposefully neglected the issue with the dark magic, though the rumors about it had spread across the continent and this sent a wave of fear among the people. He simply pretended it didn't happen, which was expected of him, since Cane had his own suspicions that the King was behind it all.

 

There was no way Alpha Gill dared to act so  boldly until he fostered a dark sorcerer without a common goal between them.

 

Alpha Gill's aspiration was not that high and he didn't have any ambition that included dark magic and put his whole pack in jeopardy by engaging in such taboo things.

 

However, it was a different matter completely if you take the King into consideration.

 

"My King, you are wise and fair. I have punished the people that touched dark magic. Isn't it only right to call Alpha Gill from Riverside to question the activities of dark magic in his pack? I heard many rumors about it on my way here."
