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.

SHE WONDERED IF THEY COULD HAVE A CONVERSATION

Iris followed Cane back to their chamber silently, she didn't say anything and kept her head down. It was clear to see that she was not happy about something and the Alpha could feel that, too.

 

He glanced in her direction a few times, but she didn't even bother to look at where they were going and only stared at the floor that she walked on.

 

It was not usual for Iris to be like this, because she would usually talk about something, like telling him what happened in the main hall or anything. She would try to ask or engage him in a conversation, especially after a big incident like this.

 

But right now, she was exceptionally quiet.

 

Was she so scared, thus she couldn't say anything? This made Cane slightly frown, because it didn't seem like it.

 

Once they returned to their bedroom, Cane put his finger under her chin, he lifted her head, so she could read what he was going to say.
