Chapter 346: THE APPEARANCE OF THE LYCAN

Iris’ eyes lit up when she read what Cane said. Her mate was actually trying to test the waters. Even after he told her they couldn’t save the diamond white tiger, he still put an effort into getting the poor boy, though Iris knew better than to let her hopes high.

On the other hand, Alpha Dristan and Koda laughed awkwardly hearing such a request. After all, the white diamond tiger was such a treasure in their opinion. It was almost on par with the magic stone mines, albeit the value of diamond and magic stone differed significantly.

A diamond was not as expensive as the magic stone, but still, it was an easy item to be sold.

"I believe the opportunity I gave to you will surpass a mere white diamond tiger by several times."

Alpha Dristan spoke in a light tone. "I know, the opportunity you gave to our pack is worth more than that." But then, his expression became troublesome. "But, the mother of the white diamond tiger had died and currently, he is the last one of his kind. He is very valuable to our pack."

"More than the opportunities for our cooperation in the future?" Cane tilted his head, his expression turned serious. "The baby is still not born yet and even if you manage to make him a crown prince, it is still a long way to put him on the throne. You will need more allies during that time."

Hearing what Cane said, Alpha Dristan and Koda’s faces darkened. It sounded like a threat from the Alpha of the Howling Wolf pack, but then Cane’s stiff expression softened, as he smiled slightly.

"If my mate is happy, I will be happy too, but if it’s too much, I will leave it at that." Cane nodded at the two of them, took Iris’ hand and then left. He said what he needed to say and it would be a good thing for them to reconsider it, since they had seen firsthand how capable Cane was and it wouldn’t actually benefit them if they upset him.

They had witnessed how Cane had single handedly fabricated everything and schemed against the King brilliantly, he was not someone that you wanted to be your enemy.

Cane showed them his value and he wouldn’t stoop so low to beg them for anything.

On the other hand, Iris was slightly disappointed because the two men didn’t give any reaction even when they started to leave, yet there was another important thing she needed to be worried about.

Iris looked up and saw the sky had turned so dark. In the distance, the bells rang, indicating it was already midnight.

"Cane?" Iris was startled when Cane picked her up and rushed toward a quiet corner, where he put her down and fell to his knees. He let out a low and dangerous growl. He started to shift into his lycan!

Iris looked around, she was afraid someone would walk past them when he did not fully shift and realize it was Cane.

She grimaced when she saw how much pain Cane had to endure during his transformation. Ethan had told her that Cane used to feel immense pain during his shift, even when he stayed in his lycan form, but it was way more bearable for him when she was close to him.

Even so, Iris still could feel the pain Cane endured right now. She knelt down and tried to soothe his pain by caressing his cheeks.

And soon after, it was the lycan standing before her eyes.

==============================

"Mother! Mother! Mother!" Alan was calling his mother frantically when he saw her enter the dirty dungeon. Her face was dark, since she hated this kind of place, but she needed to get down here because this stupid son of hers got them into a huge trouble with his stupidity. "Mother! You need to believe me! You need to tell father. I am not the one who cursed Aunt Osana! It was not me! I don’t know anything!"

"I know," Lady Cyan said coldly, which made Alan look relieved when his mother didn’t blame him, but he was happy too soon, because his mother did not come here to help him.

"You better shut your mouth," Lady Cyan said grimly, as she waved her hand, indicating for all the ladies who followed her here and the guards to leave her alone. "I can’t believe I gave birth to such an idiotic creature like you."

Alan was taken aback when he heard that, but this was not the first time for his mother to belittle him and talk so harshly to him.

"Mother... if you know it was not me, you just need to ask father to say so," Alan said, looking scared of his own mother.

However, Lady Cyan looked even angrier when she heard that. How could he not understand the current situation and how he walked straight into the enemy’s scheme? He was not only stupid, but also ignorant to the bone.

"Shut up!" Lady Cyan finally lost her temper, she raised her hand and Alan felt the same suffocated feeling whenever his mother used her magic on him. He felt like he was being strangled, having a hard time breathing.

"Mo- mother..." Alan clawed at his neck, but there was nothing there. "Pl- please... I can... die..."

"Good. You better die."

If it was not for the purpose behind his existence, she would have killed him right away. There were countless instances where she really wanted to kill this useless son of hers. Not only was he not up to her standard, he didn’t even meet her expectations at all! What a burden!

But, in the end, Lady Cyan let him go, because he couldn’t die, at least not yet.

Alan started coughing hard when he was finally released, as he scurried away from the bars and curled his body in the corner of the dungeon. He was so scared. His mother used to lock him inside a cage when he was a child because he was not as bright as Kellan.

But when he grew older, it seemed, she had given up on him and let him do whatever.

Meanwhile, Lady Cyan was about to ask Alan about something important when Laura entered the room. She was her personal maid and knew a lot about her, including her magic ability.

"What is it?!" Lady Cyan snapped because she didn’t like to be interrupted.

"There is important news from the palace, my lady," Laura said hastily. "A lycan has appeared in the palace and the creature kidnapped the Luna of the Howling Wolf pack. The King demands your presence now, my lady."

Lady Cyan’s eyes turned so dark, as her face turned ashen. She didn’t waste her time in this wretched place any longer, as she rushed back to the palace.

Early in the morning, the whole capital city had learned about what happened in the palace and how the Crown Prince was put in the dungeon right away for the crimes he had committed.

Despite the King’s efforts and his attempts to suppress the news about what happened to Alan, someone had leaked and spread the information wide and far, especially about the kidnap.
