The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371: THE ALPHA’S MOVE

Cane approached Alpha Gill, he knelt down beside him and then stretched out his hands. He stuffed his fingers into his mouth, as he gripped both his upper jaw and lower jaw firmly before he started pulling his mouth apart very slowly, until the poor alpha let out a gagging sound.

Once Alpha Gill realized what Cane was about to do to him, he let out a shrill scream as he felt his mouth being ripped apart. His eyes bulged, as they filled with dread, but soon, his screams turned into a stream of gurgling sounds, because blood blocked his throat, pooling inside his torn mouth.

Cane really took his time while watching him writhe in agony, he even stopped intermittently to let his cheeks heal for a bit, before he continued. His eyes were so cold, as if the horrendous scene before him was nothing. There was no emotion whatsoever on his face. There was no joy, nor anger, but this kind of blank face only made him look even scarier.

Meanwhile, all the warriors had turned their heads away collectively, averting their gazes from the brutal scene, while Redmond watched everything with his jaw dropped. Cane was going to kill Alpha Gill!?

Was it alright to kill Alpha Gill? Was it wise to kill him?! Wouldn’t he be digging his own grave?! What was his reason to kill him?! What would he say to the King and the pack members of the Riverside pack after he killed their alpha?! Would he take the same path as what the Blue Moon pack did to the Howling Wolf pack?!

Redmond couldn’t understand Cane’s intention and plan. He just arrived a few days ago and aside from following the order to keep his eyes on Iris, which he did gladly, he was only tasked to do some trivial things, there was nothing important that could make him able to figure out Cane’s grand plan.

What happened to Alpha Gill lasted for, more or less, an hour, where all that time, the Alpha was still alive, until Cane really tore his head apart. His head split into two, where his lower jaw and lip were still attached to his neck and the rest of his head was thrown across the room by Cane.

That one hour was hell for Alpha Gill before he breathed his last in such a gruesome state. Cane finally stood up, Alpha Gill’s blood dripped from his front and from his hands, some found way onto his face, which he wiped off with disgust.

All of the warriors lowered their heads solemnly, as if they were praying it wouldn’t be them next, so did Redmond. A lot of memories flashed in his mind where he taunted the Alpha and provoked him a few times in the past. Now, after seeing what happened to Alpha Gill, somehow, he felt grateful to still have his head attached to his body.

With Cane’s brain and his viciousness, Redmond knew, if this alpha wanted him dead, he would have lost his head without him even knowing it. Or worse, he would have walked straight into his trap blindly.

After Cane was done with Alpha Gill, he walked toward Redmond and before the warrior could react, Cane had his hand wrapped around his neck and slammed him to the ground, as Redmond landed next to the headless Alpha Gill, his back drenched with his blood.

For a split second, Redmond thought Cane would attack him again and out of instinct, he immediately went into a defensive stance, but as it turned out, the Alpha only stared at him coldly, as if hell could be frozen by a single look from him. The sight made the warrior shudder, as he knew he wouldn’t stand a chance winning if Cane really attacked him.

As a shifter, most of the time, one could sense if their opponent was way stronger than themselves and more dominant, that was how they distinguished an alpha in a crowd, especially a trained warrior like Redmond.

For a few moments, the atmosphere remained very still, as though the time stopped ticking.

"That’s what you will do if something like this happens to my mate again," Cane finally spoke, his voice was even, but it sounded so dark and murderous. "But then, your corpse will be laid next to them."

In other words, Redmond would be killed along with whoever touched his mate inappropriately, as Cane wouldn’t tolerate his failure in protecting Iris again.

Something like this shouldn’t have happened in the first place if Redmond did his job right.
