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.

TRYING TO HEAL

Knowing Iris, Cane was sure, she would do anything, everything to save Letto but the fact that she didn't do it made the alpha was even more concern at her.

 

There must be a more important reason about why she didn't do it and seeing her feeling so much guilt pained Cane. He lifted her body and cradled her. He didn't question his mate again, because right now Iris was too devastated to answer any question.

 

Like usual, Cane waited until she calmed down, he let her to take her own time to understand her feeling, but he also made sure that she knew he was there with her.

 

After an hour had passed, finally Iris was calm down enough to stop crying, but it didn't mean she would immediately speak.

 

Aliana came to deliver her meal and she saw Iris's current condition, but knowing the alpha was there with her, she didn't say anything and immediately left the room.
