The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146: LIL THING

Iris felt like they were robbing Lou by taking these many stones from his place, more so she was not used to acting like this, thus she felt guilty, adding that to the fact Cane didn’t show any indication that he would search for the pet.

She tugged at Cane’s sleeve. "Don’t you feel like we are stealing these stones?" She asked hesitantly.

"No, this is an abandoned cave," Cane replied simply. "Find more."

Iris grimaced, but she was curious enough to see how Lou would react when he learned that Cane robbed him right under his nose, under his own roof.

All her life, she had struggled to survive under her brother’s torture and tried to help the slaves as much as she could, but she didn’t know you could fool others like this with wordplay and Cane was really good at it.

Oh, the more Iris saw it, the more Cane seemed undaunted and even a little bit... brazen.

"What are you waiting for?" Cane frowned when Iris looked at him intensely, deep in her thought, until she didn’t realize that she had been gawking at the alpha.

Iris hurriedly lowered her head and then moved away from him to find more stones hidden inside the rocks.

An important thing that you had to pay attention to when you were digging out the magic stones was; you couldn’t do it carelessly, because the magic stone was a frangible item, once your tool hit it and it cracked, it would turn into something invaluable.

Therefore, it took time to get the magic stones out, let alone the effort to find the exact location. But, Iris could do it without any problem.

As Iris moved away to find more stones, Cane stood up all of a sudden when he heard something approaching them.

The sound of its footsteps echoed in this cave and from how the ground was shaking a little bit, you would know the creature approaching you was big enough to create such vibration just by moving.

Iris seemed to feel the ground shaking as well, as she retraced and stood next to Cane. "What happened? Is something happening?" She looked at his grim expression.

"Stay back," Cane said curtly, he pushed Iris aside and handed the bundle filled with magic stones to her.

After that, he shifted into his black wolf and stood right in front of Iris. His wolf was bigger than any other shifter because he was the alpha, the height of this wolf even reached Iris’ shoulders. It was twice her size. She could literally ride him.

Well, she wouldn’t dare to think about that...

The black wolf stood guard in front of Iris, as its golden eyes looked intensely at a certain point behind the stalactites. A low growl could be heard rumbling out of its throat, a warning.

Iris couldn’t hear that, but she could see how the wolf was ready to tear its opponent apart once it felt danger approaching them.

"Alpha?" Iris tried to call him. She was upset because she couldn’t hear a thing. Was there a fight? Were there roars? A growl? Was there a commotion? _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}
