The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy’s Daughter Chapter 93
93 CALL IRIS TO COME HERE
“How long it will take from this pack to Moon Dew pack?” Cane asked Will.
They had shunned away the swindler merchant and destroyed three of his carriages that carried rotten meats. It was not a problem, because no one in their right mind would be able to eat those rubbish anyway.
“It will take a week to go there,” Will replied.
They were inside a tavern, drinking cheap ale, while it was raining outside. Their mood was dour at the moment after what happened.
“You don’t think that you will go to the black market, right?” Ethan furrowed his brows, he tried to read what was in the alpha’s mind, but once again he failed to do so.
Meanwhile, Jace looked concern. There was another important trouble that they had to consider if they wanted to make it a trip there.
“A week journey, which mean it will take at least twenty days to return,” Jace murmured. At least, they would have six days to one week to get what they needed.
However, none of them had ever gone to that kind of place and on top of that, there was this new moon as well.
If they were lucky, they would be able to return before the next new moon, but everything could happen during their journey and it was too risky.
way.
Not a single soul should know about what happened to Cane and they needed to keep it that
“We can buy crops from Crystal moon pack,” Ethan suggested, but that was not enough. As soon as he said it, he could hear how stupid that suggestion was.
Asking help from their neighbor packs was almost like revealing their weakness and once they did that, they would hunt them down, used it as their bargaining chips and the history would repeat.
The thing that held them back from attacking this pack was the image that Cane displayed. He created the image of how strong these two packs were under his control, as this became the biggest pack in the southern kingdom.
It worked, but it wouldn’t last forever. They would see there were bunches of internal problems and they needed to reduce the possibility for them to ever find it out.
“Where is Redmond?” Cane asked Ethan. With him asking about the head warrior of the Blue Moon pack, all of them could see where it would go.
“Cane.” Ethan frowned. He didn’t like the idea.
“Talk to me when you have a better idea.”
Ethan lowered his head. He didn’t have, neither Jace nor Will.
On the other hand, Cane knew that his father wouldn’t like this, he would always say to not engage in such trade in the black market, but now he was dead and he needed to think of hundreds to thousand of people that relied on him heavily.

“He is in the training ground. He used to be there if he is not in the pack house.” It was Will, who answered the question.
After knowing that, Cane stood up and left the money on the table before he walked through the rain to go to the training ground.
It wouldn’t be a pleasant conversation.
It didn’t take long for Cane to find Redmond. He was in his beast form, drenched in the rain. The grey wolf looked at him viciously, as if he was about to attack the alpha, but Cane was as calm as ever.
“Shift,” he commanded, but because Redmond didn’t pledge his loyalty to him, he couldn’t force him to shift into his human form.
The
grey wolf snickered with that fact, yet Cane didn’t falter.
“Tell me about the black market and how to get there.” He didn’t beat around the bush and bluntly asked.
To answer that, Redmond had to shift back to his human form, since they couldn’t do mind link, yet he was being stubborn. Instead, the grey wolf growled in low voice. A threat.
Cane met him in the eyes, as he spoke again. “Will.”
Will, who just managed to catch up with him immediately rushed to his side. “Yes, alpha.”
“Get Iris here.”
Hearing that, the grey wolf shifted and now Redmond was standing there, looking indignant. “Fine! What do you want to know?”
However, Cane didn’t seem pleased to that attitude. He had let it slide countless time. “What are you waiting for?” He glanced at will.
“You don’t need to call her here, we can talk now!” Redmond was furious. It was raining, why would this alpha want to put Iris under the rain.
Yet, Cane glanced at Will and it was enough to make his personal guard to do what he was told.
“Cane!” Redmond snarled.
It had been raining for the last few days and the dark cloud dampened Iris’s mood significantly. Actually, she wanted to request for Cane, so she would be able to go to the mines, she needed to find the water magic stone, since the one that she found was given to Ania.
However, the circumstances and the time were not right.
During these times, Iris would rarely go out of her bedroom, she would go to the dining hall once all of the people had left and moved as quietly as possible. She was akin to a living ghost, as she didn’t want anyone to notice her existence.
This pack didn’t have a library, from what Kaz said, they used to have one, but after the pack house turned into a brothel, they didn’t know where those scums put all the books.
Thus, Iris would spend her days perched near the window, watching the rain and all the people, who
was smiling and conversing with each other. They worked together to make the pack house became more livable place, despite the rain, it didn’t stop them. They splashed each other playfully.
Iris envied them. She wanted to have friends and conversation like them as well. She felt like an
outsider, which was ironic, since she was the luna of this pack.
