Chapter 69: Half-brothers
Outside Damien’s pack, the tension between Edward and his brother reached a boiling point.
Edward accused his brother, Cane,of wanting him dead,"You wanted Damien to kill me!" His anger fuelled the fiery blaze in his eyes as he unsheathed his claws, ready for a fight.
"You have to lose something to get something," Cane retorted with a maniacal laugh, reveling in Edward’s gullibility. He had manipulated his brother, and Edward fell into his trap, blinded by rage.
"I will kill you!" Edward threatened, forcefully pushing the table aside that separated them in the dining hall. It took him two weeks to recover from the previous incident, thanks to Cane’s misinformation.
If only he hadn’t let anger cloud his judgment, he wouldn’t have fallen into his brother’s snare. Why was Cane determined to get what he wants by killing him? How could a murderer lead innocent lives?
"Can you?" Cane taunted, flashing a sly grin at Edward. He mocked his brother’s impulsiveness, the very reason the pack wanted to get rid of Edward. Cane was the true heir to the Alpha position, not Edward.
Growling, Edward lunged at Cane, gripping his neck with his claws and drawing blood. Despite the pain, Cane laughed, seemingly unaffected by the assault. Annoyed, Edward threw him against the wall and transformed into his wolf form.
"Alright, let’s play," Cane remarked, shifting into his own wolf form to engage in a fierce battle with his brother.
Their intense fight attracted attention in the pack house, but Cane’s assistant made sure no one entered the dining hall to interfere.
