The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter
Chapter 465: SACRIFICE

Chapter 465: SACRIFICE

The King taunted Cane intentionally and the latter knew about that, but it didn’t mean his blood didn’t boil with anger when his mother was being disrespected like that.

He could feel this anger slither up his veins, but it was not only him, there was another strong feeling running through his mind at this moment as he stole a glance at Lady Cyan briefly.

The lycan inside him awakened and the sight of Lady Cyan stirred his wrath.

It didn’t happen before. When he met with Lady Cyan, the lycan always stayed dormant. What was different now? Was it because he could sense Iris was in danger and all of this was because of this mistress?

Cane glanced at Iris, her small face scrunched up, as she glared at King Aeon with such strong disgust upon reading what he said about his mother. Weirdly, he felt a little bit better seeing his mate so angry on behalf of him.

"Aeon," Cane called the King by his name, since the pretenses had been dropped, there was no need for him to show any fake politeness and respect. He didn’t deserve that, after all. "You are so disgusting, it’s so shameful we are related by blood."

Alpha Dristan was so shocked when he heard that, so did Sir Elijah. He shouldn’t be provoking the King further when they were at a disadvantage! Did he really want to die?!

What Cane said alone could grant him a death sentence, but at this point, what difference would it make?

On the other hand, hearing what Cane said, King Aeon was seething. He was about to order all the warriors to attack at once, shred him into pieces, but Lady Cyan stopped him.

"If you are so shameful of your bloodline, I can suck your blood out of your body! I will make your mate watch how every single drop of blood is drained from your body!"

Lady Cyan put her hand over the King’s and this stopped his outrage, as the King held himself back to let his mistress take over the situation.

Sir Elijah watched this subtle gesture and was bewildered as to how this mistress could tame the enraged king and actually, the King looked docile with her. He only met Lady Cyan twice and because she did not stand out among the other mistresses, it came as a surprise for her to be able to do this to the King.

"Alpha Cane, I am very curious about your mate, can’t you lend her over to me for a while?" Lady Cyan tilted her head at Iris. She still couldn’t figure out what this woman was. She was not a shifter, but she was not a magic user either, yet, she had the ability that no normal human had.

"Cyan, if you are not going to hunt for white foxes, should we return to the pack? I am so sick of this game." When Cane dropped all the formalities, he did that thoroughly. He looked at her menacingly.

However, instead of being offended, Lady Cyan smiled instead. She looked so beautiful and cheerful, but the King didn’t have any reaction. He looked angry, but that was it, the emotions that he displayed felt so empty if you looked at him closely.

"Why are you already fed up with this game when it’s just started?"

Cane looked around him. There were at least four hundred royal warriors surrounding them. It was not a significant number. The lycan had killed twice this number of warriors, but Cane didn’t want to resort to that step.

"My King, you can’t do this. The people are in favor of Alpha Cane, if something happens to him and the public learns about it, it will tarnish your name even further. People will revolt!" Sir Elijah tried to talk sense into the King.

King Aeon was not a favored king, everyone knew this, especially when he insisted for Alan to be the Crown Prince, while even his own court was against it, but it didn’t make it any better when he skipped a whole generation and declared a baby as the newly appointed crown prince.

"Shut up, you are only interrupting the conversation here," Lady Cyan said coldly, as she raised her hand and curled her fingers in. People who were close to her would immediately know what kind of effect this move of hers would have.

At the same time, Sir Elijah gasped loudly, while he scratched at his neck, as if trying to get rid of the thing that suffocated him.

His body fell from his horse to the ground. He tried to scream for help, but no word came out of his open mouth, while he let out an eerie sound, as if he was being slaughtered. His eyes bulged in their sockets. Fear was palpable in those frightened eyes. He was fighting for his life, but then, it was something that he couldn’t fight against.

"Dark magic... it’s dark magic..." Alpha Dristan stuttered. His jaw dropped when he watched sir Elijah stop struggling before his body went completely still on the ground. He was dead. The mistress killed him with dark magic. "How... it’s..." His mind went blank.

Meanwhile, Iris averted her gaze from Sir Elijah’s dead body, she couldn’t stand watching the pitiful way he was killed.

The young woman, who was sharing a horse with Dyne, started crying inconsolably, as the warrior closed her eyes with his palm, so she didn’t need to watch the excruciating pain that Sir Elijah went through.

On the other hand, the Alpha said nothing. His eyes were still fixed on Lady Cyan. She didn’t hold back while showing her power, to show them her true colors as the dark witch and Cane noticed one thing; none of the warriors were surprised to see this. Did they already know?

"Alpha Cane... we- we are going to die..." Alpha Dristan mumbled under his breath. This was the first time for him to really encounter dark magic and watch someone die because of it. "She is a dark witch..."

And now, killing Sir Elijah was the sacrifice that Cyan needed.
