The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 921

Chapter 921: THE PEOPLE FROM THE HOLY KINGDOM IS HERE

Iris didn’t realize how much her lost not only affected her and Cane, but also the people around them. She failed to realize that, because they tried to act as normal as they could in front of her, too afraid to shake the boat.

However, in reality, the death of her babies affected the people that cared for them too.

Ethan watched how Aliana lost her baby, he was there when she had to go through her depression during the slavery, it was hard and cruel. Misery was an understatement to picture what actually happened during that period of time.

And when Iris lost her babies, there was a moment where Aliana spiraled down, though she didn’t say it, but Ethan could see it.

After all, he was there when she lost her mate and her baby. The excruciating pain in her scream from across the cell from him, while he couldn’t do anything and witness how that beautiful woman crumbled down.

He was locked in his cell and could only watch.

The death of Iris’s babies triggered something inside Aliana and she couldn’t let it out because she had to take care of Iris at that time. More so, everyone was so worried about their luna and their alpha’s condition, she didn’t want to add to it.

"I didn’t say it to make you feel bad, Iris," Ethan said. He was afraid, Iris would take it in the wrong way, but he needed to explain this part to her, so she could get the context why he said that thing to Aliana.

"I know. I am fine." Iris truly understood. "Continue."

That was the very reason why he told Aliana that he didn’t want to have a child with her. The conversation just came when they spent the night together for the first time, it was when they talked about the ideal future for them.

"She took two cups of Dragonheart in front of me." Ethan grimaced. Both of them knew there was no way for a pregnancy at time like this, they could understand why Cane was at a mess for a whole week upon knowing of Iris’s pregnancy and this miracle was completely an accident in Cane and Iris’s case. "She looked like she was drinking my blood instead."

Iris tried not to chuckle. She could imagine how Aliana glared down at him.

It’s not that Ethan didn’t want to have any child with Aliana, but he didn’t want her to go through that pain and misery again, even after the war had ended and their lives relatively well. He didn’t hate the idea of having a child, but he loved her too much to let her went through the pain.

"No offense, seeing you, pregnancy is not an easy feat." Ethan also heard from Redmond a few stories when he had to take care of Sofia.

"You know that Redmond could exaggerate his story, right? In that part, he is as dramatic as you."

"Oh, please, we don’t have anything alike." Ethan rolled his eyes dramatically.

Iris could understand why Aliana was mad, but she could understand Ethan’s point too. The problem was; Ethan didn’t have a chance to explain his side and Aliana assumed the worse when the gamma didn’t speak up. She told him that.

"She is very scary. I think I need to gather my courage first before I talked with her." Ethan shuddered, he remembered how he felt like he was in a great danger under her glare.

"You need to gather your courage quickly." Iris patted Ethan’s shoulders. "I will try to speak with her."

"Yes, please, thank you, Iris! You are the best luna!" Ethan hugged her tightly. "You are the best luna I could ask for!"

Suddenly Zephyr separated them. "Are you crazy? Hugging the luna like that?" he glared at him. They understood how the relationship between Iris and Ethan, but not everyone had the same understanding. They were not in their pack and there were a lot of people that could spread nasty rumor.

They were already busy with Decratic, Holy Kingdom people, thus a rumor was not necessary needed to add to their plate.

For the next day, while Cane was busy to prepare their next journey to Red Claw pack, where Koda became very involved in this, Iris fulfilled her promise to distribute food supply to all of the pack member.

Since early this morning, many people had gathered in the square, waiting anxiously and there was still this disbelieve in their faces, while the children held their mother’s dress tightly, whining about how they were hungry.

They heard the luna from the Howling Wolf pack asked the people in the pack house to cook a big meal since last night and today they were going to serve it to people.

But, no one had ever done something like this before. Especially someone with high status like her. They wouldn’t even be bothered if one of the people died right in front of them. That was the world they lived in.

Therefore, when it really did happen, they were shocked beyond word to actually receive the food.

"Is this poisoned?" one of them asked, sniffing the meal they just received, but once they tried it, the warmth that they had longed assuaged their anxiety. This was the nicest thing they had ever received. No one had ever gone this far for them, not even their own alpha.
