The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 266

Chapter 266: THE ASSASINATION PLAN

"If I remember correctly, the Crown Prince got a hold of the golden stamp in the past." Cane deigned a little bit of attention on Alan, as he glanced at him briefly. "So, I assumed, with a huge responsibility that the King entrusted me with, my duty will hold the same importance as the Crown Prince had, for him to get a hold of the golden stamp in the past."

It was an insult Cane wrapped in beautiful words.

Everyone in this main hall knew Alan didn’t do anything important when he got a hold of the golden stamp. In actuality; he created chaos in the whole kingdom, which only ended after two years, but he only got six months of punishment.

All of the people in the court were very displeased at that time and made a petition to dethrone the Crown Prince and for the King to choose someone else, who was more competent, yet the King didn’t budge, even until this second, Alan was still crowned as the next person to the throne.

And again, Cane brought up an unspoken topic that shouldn’t have been mentioned in front of the King and put the Sovereign in a rock and a hard place.

King Aeon couldn’t refuse that because Cane had set a comparison of the importance of the situation between his and Alan’s.

It was ridiculous when Alan was allowed to hold the golden stamp when he only fooled around with it, while the King refused Cane to have it in such critical moments such as this time.

"Yes, you can have the golden stamp," King Aeon said through his gritted teeth.

Hearing that, Alan whipped his head around, about to protest again, but he immediately clamped his mouth shut and lowered his head when he heard his father’s voice booming in his head, as he warned him harshly through the mindlink.

The pitiful crown prince could only ball his fists and endure the humiliation, while cussing at Cane in his mind. He would jump at the first opportunity if he had a chance to kill this alpha and about that thought, Alan and King Aeon shared the same sentiment.

"Thank you, My King, you are wise and just." Cane finally bent down and knelt in front of Archie, as he received the missive, which symbolized he accepted the duty, a direct order from the King in front of everyone.

The members of the Howling Wolf pack who were there shared mixed feelings, especially Ethan and Iris, who knew the storm had not yet passed.

Even though Cane received the golden stamp, the fact that he had to solve the problem with the lycan, the black magic, the curse on Princess Osana and also calming down the public, entailed way too many responsibilities.

How would he handle everything? How could he deal with the problem with the lycan when he himself was the lycan!

"Alpha..." Iris tugged his sleeve discretely when they finally could leave the main hall. Even though the problem about Ethan finally ended, none of them looked delighted.

The new duty from the King meant they had to spend months in the capital city and no one was thrilled with that news.
