The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter

This was a tradition that every alpha and luna had to go through in order to claim their positions in the pack. They needed to go to the temple in the capital city, where they would have to pray for them to have a blessing from the moon goddess and write their names on the sacred stone as the new rulers for their pack.

"And one more thing." The king looked at Iris, who was half hiding herself behind Cane. The alpha’s large and tall body practically hid her well. "Since the problem here is an heir, I will give you two years to prove to me that she is able to give you a child. If after two years, you are still without a child, we will discuss this matter again."

Hearing that, Cane raised his head and met the king in the eyes. There was a flash of emotion in those dark eyes, but it lasted only for a brief second, because after that, they returned to being emotionless.

"Yes, I will make sure to bring our child." The words ’our child’ left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Behind him, Jace had a troubled expression. He didn’t know how the alpha would come up with a child later when the time came.

"So, when will you have the blessing ceremony in the capital temple?" The king asked casually, which made the tension slightly dissipate from this room. He leaned his back against his seat.

"Since we still have a lot of things to be taken care of here, as I will be in charge of the Blue Moon pack too, we will visit the capital within six months." Cane had to rearrange some things and he had to move the pack house to the former pack house in the Howling Wolf pack. He didn’t intend to stay in this pack house for long.

Cane had not yet found a time to go back to his pack.

"Four months," King Aeon said. "I want you to have the blessing ceremony within four months. This is something that you can’t delay for long and you know that."

Cane looked at the king for a while and then nodded. "Four months."

"I hope to see a grand nephew in two years."
