Cane knew it was the voice of the crown prince, because they had a dispute before when he tried to get handsy on Leane. He would never forget that disgusting voice.
It was not a surprise to see him in this kind of place, since it suited his taste perfectly and the old man beside him was his advisor. Corry Maleen. He had been his advisor
since Cane could remember.
“Can you read their conversation?” he asked again after Iris was standing beside him.
Iris looked at the cubicle that Cane pointed out, she squinted her eyes and looked at carefully at them, thankfully, their face was facing her, thus it was not difficult for her to read their lips.
“…this is too much. You have to stop bidding. We will not have enough money to buy it.” Iris copied what the old man was speaking, as she watched him scolded the man beside
him.
“That’s just a rumor! No one knows if the item is really in the black market or not!” Alan, the crown prince of the Ogregon kingdom glared at his advisor, he had been wanting to get rid this old thing, but his father didn’t agree.
“We shouldn’t be here, we should go to the black market straightaway! The king will not please to know this.” Corry knew the crown prince’s temper, he wouldn’t be able to resist shining things, especially a chance to piling up his wealth.
“You can go back to the capital by yourself, so shut the fuck up, or I will sell you too.”
That was a demeaning statement and very impudence, but Corry couldn’t voice out his anger, because the end of the day, he was the crown prince. And even though there was no way he would be able to be sold, this man could find a thousand way to make his life. suffer when he became the king one day if he got into his bad side.
“What if you don’t have enough money to buy that item?”
“I am the crown prince, I can pawn my golden stamp.”
“You can’t do that!” Corry was having a headache.
“Why not? I have done it before.” Alan was very careless and didn’t care much about the politic and what important. For him the king’s words were gold and they needed to follow regardless.
The crown prince was thirty in this year, but his personality didn’t grow ever since he

was only a seventeen years old brat. It was still a questionable why the king chose him
as the successor.
“You know what happened after you sold the golden stamp in the past?!”
Alan smirked and brushed him off nonchalantly, as he raised his number again. “Fifty thousand gold!”
And that was the last price for the diamond white tiger. He was sold to the the crown prince with that exorbitant number.
“That’s what they said,” Iris said, as she watched the two of them stepped back from the railing and couldn’t be seen again.
“Hah! I know that he is so stupid,” Redmond scoffed disdainfully.
“What happened when he sold the golden stamp in the past?” Will asked. It must happen during their slavery time, thus they didn’t hear any information about that.
“That caused such a ruckus because there were a few important documents were being forged,” Redmond said simply, but for the aftermath of that crown prince’s stupidity was dire. He was confined for half a year in his palace. “It happened five years ago and the aftermath could only be dealt after two years. The kingdom lost a few assets, especially the important document and trade pact. In the end the person, who forged the documents had never been found and the kingdom released new stamp.”
“And the king didn’t learn from his mistake and gave it to him again?” Will was in disbelieve.
Redmond chortled. “I think the king is bewitched. Many people thought that way, since the crown prince’s mother is someone from Andelus continent.”
“Magic user?”
“Most people assumed that, but not many people have ever seen her. She shut herself in her own palace. That was all that Redmond knew about the imperial family. “Alpha, your mother also from the imperial family, right?” he reminded him, but Ethan kicked his leg to shut him.
On the other hand, Cane didn’t care much about their conversation regarding Alan and what blunder that he had done. His main focus was to the thing that he wanted to get in the black market.
It was hard to navigate things when he had never been in the black market himself. He didn’t know much about the regulation and how things were working in there.

Though he had asked Arthur to gather more information about it, but because he didn’t have an access to go there, there was not much that he could offer.
On the stage, there were two men dragged the little boy away, because the next item would be auctioned.
Iris stared at the little boy, her heart twisted to see how he cried his eyes out, calling for his mother. From what Redmond said, his mother had died. And if all you need was their tears, what kind of things that they had done to get it?
Iris became very silence. She felt ill just to imagine that.
“Here you go, the item that you want.” Redmond propped his chin with his fist, as he stared at the stage lazily.
“This is a magical tattoo that can bring you to the world that you have never seen…” the auctioneer exaggerated his words.
“Nah, this guy is so dramatic,” Redmond mumbled under his breath.
“We will open the price at thirty gold!”
Very soon the number was getting higher and higher, but Cane didn’t bid at all. He didn’t join the clamor.
“Are you bidding or not?” Redmond was perplexed to see the alpha didn’t make a move.
However, one look from Cane shut him up immediately. He could feel the killing intent from him.
