The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy’s Daughter Chapter 121

121 LAY DOWN ON THE BED

Cane felt like his skin was being burned, when the bald man touched the upper part of his arm, he almost thought his hand had turned into hot iron instead.

However, he only knitted his brows and said nothing, he didn’t even let out a grunt at all, which amazed Redmond, because when Masson got his entry, he cried and wailed

like a three year old boy because of the pain.

Later on, he said he had never been in so much pain like that, but Redmond now realized that the endurance of both of them was not even comparable.

While Mason was only a spoiled brat, Cane had gone through something that Mason

didn’t even dare to dream of.

On the other hand, Iris was talking to Ethan, showing her little lizard, which distracted him enough to not focus on the fact that they were inside this tiny room and was

locked.

Ethan didn’t look he was fine, but at the very least, he was not on edge like before. He was trying to focus on what Iris was saying, but the problem was; all she spoke was about her little lizard, which didn’t really interest him.

“Why don’t you hold the lizard, maybe it likes you,” Redmond spoke and once he opened his mouth, Iris glared at him, she missed what he was saying, but she knew it wouldn’t be something good. “Both of you look cute together.”

“Do you want to die?” Ethan shot the most terrifying glare at him.

“Honestly, every time I talk to you, it feels like I am setting myself to be stabbed,”

Redmond snickered.

“Then maybe we should talk more often, so you can get used to it.” Ethan’s body emitted cold aura when he growled at the warrior, who looked like he didn’t take this matter seriously.

Redmond clicked his tongue, his eyes glinted with humor. “No, I am not that much of a

masochist.”

Thankfully, the bickering didn’t last long, because a few second later, the man said that he had done with what he was doing.

Cane looked a little bit pale, but aside from that, there was nothing else to be worried about.

“Are you sure the girl is not a magic user?” the bald man asked again, he tilted his head to the direction where he heard Redmond’s voice earlier.

“A hundred percent. She is a runt.”

After that, the bald man mumbled again and laid on the bed, talking to himself in incoherent voice and not long after the woman in red dress came to open the door. It was Ethan, who rushed out of the room almost immediately.

He didn’t want to spend another second inside and wanted to quickly go away from this tunnel. He felt the air in this place was suffocating and he could die if he had to stay any longer than this.

He didn’t even care to see the magical tattoo on Cane’s upper arm.

Iris also immediately hid her lizard when the woman opened the door. Cane had told her strongly that no one could know about the lizard, so she needed to be careful.

“Why the woman and the man inside that room talk in Andel language?” Cane asked Redmond once they had gotten out of the brothel and walked toward their inn.

“Because they are from that continent and can’t talk in our language,” he replied in a

matter of fact tone.

“Why they hire people from that continent?” Cane didn’t really need to know about this trivial matter, but he found this questionable.

“Maybe because the owner is someone from there.” He shrugged his shoulder nonchalantly. “There is a rumor about that, but no one knows the truth for sure about the owner of that black market and the auction.”

Cane thought to ask Arthur to investigate about this further.

“They agreed to meet with you tomorrow morning, there is something that they wanted from the black market, but since they couldn’t get the entry, they want you to buy it for them in exchange of one of the water magic stone,” Will reported it to Cane.

“One?” Cane scoffed coldly. They had two and they would only give one? Meanwhile, hours ago, they were ready to give up the two stones and paid more money for the entry. “What they want from the black market?”

“For that, they want to discuss it with you tomorrow morning in their inn.” That was all that Will could get. “Oh, and I happened to know that the crown prince and Sir Corry stay in two inn away from here.”

Cane nodded. “You can go.” He was waiting for midnight when Arthur would come to give him the report, but he felt his head had grown so heavy.

He was always having this headache, aside from not being able to sleep and having an acute insomnia, oncee he fell asleep, it was nightmare that was waiting for him.

But, after getting the tattoo, the headache became more and more unbearable, as if this increased of pain tested his patience, this almost like the feeling when he had to endure his new moon.

“Will.”

“Yes, alpha?” Will was about to walk out of the bedroom when he was called.

“Tell Iris to come here.”

Will was puzzled, but he didn’t dwell on it and immediately went to the room next door, where Iris stayed.

It didn’t take long before someone knocked on the door and Iris entered the room. Her sweet scent was enough to alleviate a bit of his headache.

She had her long, curly, hair loose, which made her tiny figure cloaked by auburn color. Her blue eyes stared at him, there was fear and anxiousness there.

“Yes, alpha?” she said gingerly. The memory of last time must be still fresh in her memory. There was nothing good coming out from being alone with him.

“Lay down on the bed,” Cane said.

Her fear intensified when she heard that. “P- pardon me?”
