The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803: FIRE FOOT AND BLACK BLOOD

"Do you know about Grebis disease?" Cane asked Zale, he dismissed his concern about Lou was going to see Iris.

There were only two things that might happen if Lou met with Iris. He could help her to find a way to solve the problem, since he had the knowledge about magic, which Cane didn’t have, or the merchant could annoy her and he would taste his mate’s wrath.

Cane was fine with either.

"I know," Zale said, he pursed his lips. "That disease is only for poor people. We call it ugly death, because the dead body will look very ugly because of the burning scars," Zale told Cane about what he knew and his experience with the disease. He saw three of his friends got the disease and they passed out within two days.

"What else?" Cane asked for more detail.

"What happened?" Zale furrowed his brows. "You guys will not be infected by the disease, why do you want to know?"

There were not many people had learned about Ethan got inflicted by Grebis. They only knew the gamma only got food poisoning.

"My gamma gets the disease," Cane replied in a matter of fact tone.

Zale widened his eyes in shock. He remembered how bad it was. He was there when three of his friends passed away because of the disease. It made his bad memories resurfaced again. "But... but, he is not poor."

Just like what he said earlier, only poor people could be infected by the disease.

"Grace had confirmed that. Tell me more about it," Cane said firmly.

With that, Zale racked his brain to let the alpha knew every single detail of it. He didn’t leave any information untold. Even the trivial thing such as the three of his friend habit and what they usually ate to survive. He even told him about how they looked like.

There was a tinge of sadness in Zale voice when he had to recall their last moment.

Food.

It started with food.

One thing that was very significant and critical between the poor people in the Silver River pack was food that they consumed.

"Because it’s hard to have meat, we used to eat Fire Foot." Zale then described the plant was akin to a small bamboo that tasted rather good and you could find it easily around the Silver River pack. "You can use it to make rag. It’s very cheap and we can make it on our own. People like me used it as clothes too."

"Fire Foot?" Cane narrowed his eyes. He didn’t dig too deep about this disease in the past, because when he learned there was no cure for it, he didn’t think much and move on to his next plan.

"I can show you if you want, I know this area," Zale said.
