The sound of it was very sickening and Grace had to close her eyes, but even so, she couldn’t ward off the disturbing sight and had to excuse herself to throw up, empty her stomach.
However, the alpha called her over to keep lady Cyan alive. How she could keep her alive when the alpha kept trying to kill her in the most horrendous way?
Ethan felt bad for Grace to have to endure this, but seeing Cane right now, it was not the right time to argue with him.
"He couldn’t do this, he needs to kill her right away!" Cedric said, even for him, the sight was really disturbing and he wanted this to end immediately.
However, Jace stopped him. "Stay away from this. This is the alpha’s problem."
"This is our problem too!" Cedric insisted.
"I don’t see how this is your problem when you didn’t even do enough to help if this is really yours." Jace hinted to the fact the Holy Kingdom’s unwillingness to cooperate with them about the problem with the Decratic was one of the reasons why its hindrance their movement.
Yes, they helped during the first battle with thousand of their knights and the battle after that, but then they needed a solution not a long ass battle!
And their non cooperation stance, was pain in the ass!
"If this is not for our alpha’s brilliant idea, we would have been annihilated by now. So, stay away from this and let our alpha deal with this mess." It was a rare occasion to see the beta became passive aggressive, thus it stunned Ethan and Redmond too.
They didn’t think Jace was a softspoken person, but it was not often for him to show his displeasure and became very aggressive with his words.
"Tell me what happened while I am away," Redmond said, as he dragged Ethan to fill him in with what had transpired all this time. "How is Iris?"
Ethan’s face turned very dark.
Meanwhile, Grace’s face was not better too. She felt very sick in her stomach to watched how her alpha cut off both lady Cyan’s ears and then her legs, while Grace tried to preserve her life.
Cane didn’t want lady Cyan to have an easy death, but at the same time, he didn’t want her to live for any second longer, more so, he didn’t have time to give her a slow torture that would lead her to her death.
Therefore, this method was perfect, since she was not a shifter that could heal herself.
Lady Cyan kept screaming in pain, crying when the alpha skinned her alive and humiliated her by tearing her dress, exposing her naked body before he skinned her.
Once again, Grace had to excuse herself to throw up. Jace helped her by covering her eyes and ears, but it didn’t help when she could feel the stickiness of blood from lady Cyan and the smell of it. More so, even when the beta covered her ears, she still could hear her painful wailing, until it stopped.
Jace released her ears for Grace to hear Cane’s order.
"Save her." Cane had not yet done. He was only halfway skinning her and he wanted lady Cyan to be alive until he was done.
Grace tried, but she shook her head. "I- I- I can’t..." she said, trembling with her eyes closed.
"Try harder."
Grace did what she was told, but the end result was the same. "I- I- I- I can’t alpha... she is dead." No matter how powerful her healing power was, she wouldn’t be able to revive the death with it.
Only then, Cane let go. Grace had reached her breaking point and Cyan died in the most miserable death Cane could think of right now, though he was not satisfied yet. He wanted to torture someone more to vanquish his anger. His heart couldn’t calm down and he felt very vindictive at this very moment.
"Cane..." Jace came to Cane when he had made sure Grace was fine. The other warriors helped her to go back to the pack. "I will take Gallot and Nolan to the dungeon." He didn’t know what to do with them, since Cane ignored the two and walked past them to go to the carriage, where Aria was still screaming.
Therefore, he suggested this, he wanted to know what Cane would do with the two alphas. If he didn’t say anything, he would bring them to the dungeon and wait for him to deal with them.
Hearing that, Cane stopped walking and glanced at his beta. His expression was the same, as if his face would be forever carved like that.
"Nail them to the pack gates. Stripped them naked and pour water on them." After giving his instruction, Cane walked away toward the carriage.
