The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter

Chapter 101: JAELOUSY

"You can say ’no’ if you don’t want to go," Redmond said as he helped Iris to load her bags inside the small carriage, while Hanna was trying to sneak in more and more food for her missy, which he let her, because Iris was not that much of an eater and she wouldn’t be able to finish them all before they rot. He was just there to help.

"I want to go," Iris replied in a small voice, which made Redmond turn his head and scrutinize her expression.

"Whatever," Redmond mumbled with a sigh, but then he lifted his head again and looked at her. "Now you can see, right? Why will this pack not survive without the help of our pack."

Redmond was still unable to let go of the fact that the Blue Moon pack was sustaining the Howling Wolf pack. He found it extremely demeaning.

"If I ordered my men to attack..."

"Redmond!" Iris sucked in a cold breath, she looked around, hoping no one had heard that. "Don’t ever say anything like that again."

Redmond rolled his eyes defiantly. He pledged his loyalty to her because she was the best option that he had among the worst. If Mason was still holding power, of course, he would have pledged to him instead. His pride for the Blue Moon pack was so high, thus to see the Howling Wolf pack squeeze them dry like that to support themselves angered him beyond words.

And the most frustrating thing was; he couldn’t even voice his displeasure, because the one he chose to follow was incapable of doing anything.

"You are so weak," Redmond said, as he dropped the last bag into the carriage. "You have power in your hands, but it is useless because you don’t know what to do with it." He interrupted Iris when she was about to speak. "You can’t even handle a slave like Aria. All you can do is hide. Do you really think that will solve the problem?"

"I don’t want to add more problems to my plate."

Redmond snorted. "What is one more problem when you are already surrounded by them?"

Iris was tongue tied.

"I am not asking you to lead a bunch of warriors and attack this pack, or kill the alpha in his sleep, well, I don’t mind it if you actually do that." Redmond snickered when he saw Iris widen her eyes, warning him. "But, at the very least, since you are a luna, act like one. You make me feel embarrassed to serve you as my master."

Iris felt humiliated by his words, but she could only lower her head.

"There, there, you are lowering your head again," Redmond grumbled, as he scratched his head in frustration. Fortunately, Iris didn’t hear those last words.

"Everything is fine here?" Will came to look over Iris’ preparations, he glanced into the carriage and nodded. "This may not be convenient, but we can’t attract too much attention."

"It is fine," Iris replied and Redmond scratched his head even harder and walked away.

"Do you need something?" He shifted his attention toward Iris, but she shook her head. "Okay, we will leave soon."

It didn’t take long before all the preparations were done and they were all set to leave. Even now, there was no interaction between Iris and Cane, while Aria could only watch the departing party from the balcony of her room. She looked at them morosely.

Ever since she got the fertility pill, not even once could she manage to take him to the bed, thus all of that was in vain.

She could only clench her fists tightly and swallow down her grievances.

"Miss Aria, are you okay?" Dalia came to her side, she followed her line of sight and noticed how the small party became smaller and smaller as they moved away.

"Do you think I will be fine after knowing Cane is taking that slut with him on this long journey?!" Aria snapped at Dalia, her eyes were extremely terrifying.

Dalia was stunned and lowered her head. "Miss Aria, I think the alpha is taking luna Iris on this journey just to keep up a front. They are alpha and luna after all, thus..."

Dalia had not yet finished her words when a harsh slap landed on her face. There was so much force in this one slap, until it caused her to fall on the floor.

"She is not the luna!" Aria hollered. "She will never be the luna!"

"I am sorry, Miss, I am truly sorry," Dalia whimpered, holding her cheek with one hand. She felt like her skin was burning, thankfully, she recovered quite fast because Aria’s long and sharp nails didn’t cut her skin. "She is not the luna."

Aria glared at her viciously, while cursing under her breath. She walked toward her bedroom, where she hugged herself and cried her heart out.

Seeing this, Dalia hastily followed inside and tried to console her.

"Don’t cry, the alpha favors you the most, you have been together with him the longest, so there is no way he will forget about you."

No. Probably he wouldn’t forget about her, still he had threatened her with banishment, something that she had never imagined before.

However, she couldn’t say this to Dalia.

"Miss, I heard there is a sorcerer in Riverside Pack."

Aria glared at her. "I don’t need a sorcerer."

"No." Dalia shook her head. "This sorcerer has a strong magic power, where he can even break a strong mate-bond."

Intrigued, Aria listened to her.

"I think, the reason why the alpha brings lu... that slut with him in this journey is because the mate bond between them is starting to grow."

Aria’s eyes widened in anger hearing those words, but Dalia hastily explained.

"After all, the alpha has marked her, so it is natural for the bond to grow between them. They even spent the night together when she was in heat."

A vicious growl rumbled from her throat when she was reminded about that. Of course, Aria knew about the fact that Cane ’helped’ Iris through her heat.
