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.

TELL ME ABOUT THEIR CONVERSATION

Iris stared into his bottomless eyes, trying to figure out what he was thinking about, but all she could tell was; he was like a calm river, not letting anyone know the constant turbulence underneath its surface.

 

Cane was planning something, he wanted to bring change and he was already making a move about that, she was pretty sure about it, but because he started from the very bottom to arrange everything, his actions had not alarmed anyone yet.

 

From the documents that she had translated, she could tell that much. Cane was trying to build connections in the Holy kingdom, but for what?

 

Needless to say, aside from trading using the magic stone mines in this continent, the two continents were not really on good terms, as those people from across the sea saw them as beasts. Creatures that defied nature because they could take animal form and human form alike.
