The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171: EXHAUSTION AND NIGHTMARE

If the attack hadn’t happened, then Cane would have been a great parent to his ten years old son with his destined mate, who more than deserved the title of the Luna of this pack.

It would have been Leane who went to the capital city and had the ceremony. It would have been her name that would be engraved beside Cane’s name, as the Luna of the Howling Wolf pack.

Her father had destroyed their lives and it was Iris that would take Leane’s position.

Iris cried so hard as she kept asking for forgiveness for something that she didn’t do, something that she couldn’t prevent and something that she was not part of.

Meanwhile, Cane waited until she calmed down enough before he told her that they needed to go because it was almost midnight.

They returned to the pack house on the horse, the guard prepared one for them, thus they could be behind the fortress faster.

During their trip back, neither of them said anything, even after they reached the pack house, both of them went to their respective rooms in silence, there was no word to exchange. Both of them were deep in their own thoughts, immersed so deep in their own agony and grievances.

That night, Cane had his nightmare again.

It was the time around his three years of slavery, this dream looked very lucid with all the gruesome details that he really wished to forget.

Mason had this idea to abandon all the elderly of the Howling Wolf pack in the Goffa mountain. He then forced Cane to watch them being mauled by the monsters there.

Most of the elderly were those who were no longer able to fight and even too old to walk on their own and needed constant assistance.

Therefore, Mason deemed them as a nuisance and a waste of space and food. There was no fun in keeping them around, as they were too weak for any twisted entertainment in his mind.

In that case, he came up with this brilliant idea to get rid of them all.

And that was where Cane found himself, staring from the fortress, watching twenty three elderly people that he had known for his whole life being ripped apart by the monsters. Their screams kept echoing in his mind even when he woke up.

The fear on their faces... How they begged for mercy from Mason, who just kept laughing at their misery...

The smell of their blood...

It was a complete massacre, since none of them could fight those monsters.
