The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471: THE BLACK WISP

Redmond stared into the distance. He was in utter disbelief upon seeing what the warriors under him had done behind his back. He had been away for so long, until he didn’t realize Lyle had taken over his role and cashed their loyalty to himself.

Regardless of whatever reason it might be, it was still unacceptable.

Currently, he was standing not too far from the Howling Wolf pack’s gate, staring into the distance toward those bunch of ungrateful jerks, who he thought were his people. They avoided his eyes, as if they felt shameful and guilty, as they should!

Behind Redmond were a few Howling Wolf pack’s warriors following him out for this negotiation, since this battle shouldn’t happen in the first place, while Jace stood on the fortress, staring down at them all. The Beta’s expression was so cold, as if he was ready for the worst. He didn’t believe it would go smoothly, the way they wanted it.

Meanwhile, in front of Redmond was Lyle.

His second in command, or should he call him as his ex second in command, stood ten steps away from him. They stared at each other and in the end, it was Redmond, who broke the silence.

"What do you mean by this?! Back off now and admit your wrongdoings, I will spare you!" Redmond barked, seething. The worst betrayal came from your closest ones and right now, Redmond could feel it.

Lyle was a person he had gone through so much with, even while they were under the oppression of the other warriors in the Blue Moon pack, until they could climb to their current positions.

For decades, they had been comrades and now they had found themselves standing on opposite sides.

"You don’t actually believe I will surrender, right? I have come to this point with preparation, I will not back down." Lyle looked calm, but his eyes showed his true emotions. He was determined, this was the hill he was going to die on. "Even if we did, the Howling Wolf pack will not be as generous as you."

That was true, they were going to be slaughtered once the warriors from the Howling Wolf pack got their hands on them. Both parties knew that absolute fact.

"Redmond, I know you hate the people in the Howling Wolf pack," Lyle started. This time, his tone was rather friendly, as if they were still good friends, but Redmond showed nothing on his expression, thus he took this as his cue to keep talking. "I know you are not satisfied with being a dog for those slaves! They used to be beneath us and now they have been extorting our Blue Moon pack for their own benefit! They took our mines and that so-called luna didn’t do anything about it! How can you give your loyalty to such a pathetic woman and follow her?!"

That was how Redmond used to think of Iris. She was nothing but a weak woman, who couldn’t even protect herself, let alone the Blue Moon pack.

Just like how the Howling Wolf pack people had been disappointed to have Iris as their luna and how just seeing her triggered some dreadful memories of what her father had done to them.
