Chapter 55: WHO SLAPPED YOU?
"What is it?" Ethan was completely clueless. The gamma was not sure, but the alpha and Iris seemed to be avoiding the table, while Aderan seemed to have sudden interest in the bookshelves around them, despite being illiterate. "What books did you bring here?"
Ethan stretched out his hand and took one of the books. As he read it his expression darkened. He lifted his head and then looked at Iris, who was perusing other books and then back at Aderan.
"Why don’t you go and check the warrior’s dormitory?" Ethan asked.
"Why should I go to the warrior’s dormitory?" Aderan didn’t get it, there was nothing to look at in that place. If anything, that place was the least concerning place in this whole pack house.
"Go," Ethan said, this time more firmly, until Aderan got what he meant. He wasn’t asking him to go to really check on that place. He just wanted him to go from this library.
From the looks of it, the gamma found something in the book which upset him greatly.
"Okay." Aderan knew when to yield. Ethan was an easy going person, but something got broken inside of him during their slavery days and once he was out of control, even the alpha would have a hard time taming him.
Once Aderan walked out of the library and closed the door behind him, Ethan immediately stood up and approached Iris. The personal guard didn’t know about the curse on their alpha.
"What do you mean by this?" His voice was slightly hoarse, but his eyes were sharp and they were staring straight at her, which made her flinch and instinctively take a step back. "Did you look for information about the alpha’s condition?"
"I- I just want to help." Iris didn’t know why the gamma looked so mad.
"How can you help him?!" Ethan hissed viciously and even though Iris couldn’t comprehend his tone, she could see the hatred oozing out of his being. "Do you really think reading these books can help with his condition?!"
