The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 614

Chapter 614: HE WANTED TO KILL HIM!

Despite what alpha Nolan had warned him, to not show his affection toward his mate, Cane actually did the opposite. He didn’t change the way he treated Iris, neither he tried not to be affectionate with her in public.

Most of the people also already knew about the gift that he gave to his mate, though Iris didn’t wear a lot of accessories, she did wear a ring or necklace now. In the morning, she would rummage the chests and found something she liked to wear and she enjoyed it a lot.

"You don’t need to feel sorry, Nolan, because I don’t." Cane was sitting on the opposite seat from alpha Nolan in this long table in the dining hall.

Alpha Nolan shook his head. "I know you must be very upset right now, this is something that unforgiveable."

Hearing that, Cane tilted his head and shifted his attention from his mate, who was munching her meat happily, her appetite improved, she ate a lot more recently and it didn’t go unnoticed by him. Probably it was due to a lot of things they did during the night that caused her hunger in the morning.

"I don’t, Nolan." Cane’s voice was even and all the people fell into silence, they stopped eating and listened to the alpha’s conversation, because you could sense the tension started to rise up in the air, though a certain auburn hair woman was oblivious, as she relished her meal. "If you want to pity someone, take your pity to Gallot, because I will not let this slide."

Alpha Nolan smiled, but it didn’t reach his eyes at all. "So, are you going to march toward Moon Dew pack and take him down? With these warriors from the six packs you have, you can easily take down his pack." His eyes glinted with cunningness. "I will be happy to assist you and I am sure the Red Claw pack will not refuse to do the same."

"I can handle my own affair, but thank you for the offer." Cane tucked a strand of Iris’s hair behind her ear, so it wouldn’t fall into her plate.

The sight made alpha Nolan scoffed. He was sure Cane did that to annoy him, as he was contradicting his advice. This time, he directed his words toward Iris, who had been staying out of their conversation ever since they entered the dining hall. Somehow, she had this strong dislike toward alpha Nolan.

"Luna Iris, you are very lucky that the baby is not the alpha, or else, you will not enjoy this treatment from him, if another woman gave birth to his firstborn." Alpha Nolan leaned his back against the backrest of his chair and smiled harmlessly. "You need to get pregnant quickly, or else, another pregnant woman will do the same thing."

Iris dropped her cutleries and glared at alpha Nolan. She looked extremely annoyed and it was out of character for her to act very hostile like this. The warriors stared at each other when they sensed how unhappy their luna was. It was also a surprised for them, since this was not the reaction, they expected from her.

"Then it will be stupid for the people to believe it easily, if the same thing happened again, even a blind people will not fall into the same hole."

All the warriors immediately averted their gazes, some of them lowered their heads in ashamed and most of them felt like they wanted to leave this dining hall, the feeling of embarrassment was very strong.

Iris’s answer was directed to alpha Nolan, but all of them felt like she was talking to them instead. The feeling of guilty ate them alive and yes, they felt stupid.

On the other hand, Cane looked relax, he watched with an amusement in his eyes. His timid mate had truly become bolder and bolder with each passing day.

"Of course, of course. It will be so stupid if another person will do the same method again." He nodded in agreement, as if he was on the same page like her. "But, you still need to give an heir for the pack, Cane is the last person in his family bloodline and you have the responsibility on it. If my daughter still alive, she would have given birth to Cane’s second child by now."

It was clear what alpha Nolan tried to implicate. He subtly compared Iris and Leana. The same method he used to put discord between Iris and Cane, creating a problem that was not there in the first place. His intention of doing that was still unclear, but whatever it was, he managed to make Iris upset.

Cane felt alpha Nolan had crossed the line too far by disrespecting his mate in such way, but before he could put him in his place, Iris already did it.

"You are very concern about this pack too much, alpha Nolan," Iris spoke before Cane could. "You are not even part of this pack, or do you want to pledge your loyalty to my mate?"

"Presumptuous!" Jax stood up from his seat, his face was so dark, as he held back his anger upon hearing what Iris said. He was alpha Nolan’s beta and came here with the alpha with the mission to take Iris to meet with the Serafim. "How dare you woman talk like that to the alpha!?"

What Iris said could be consider as an insult and for an alpha to pledge their loyalty to the other alpha, it could mean the pack had been defeated. The only time an alpha pledged loyalty was to the king and Cane was not a king... yet.
