The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter

It didn’t take long for Grace to examine Zale and report it to the Alpha.

"He is clean, Alpha," the healer told the Alpha after a thorough examination.

Cane was standing next to the carriage, while Iris stared at him through the window, listening to their conversation. He had his back to her, but he could imagine how her blue eyes lit up with happiness upon hearing what Grace informed him.

After all, it meant Zale was allowed to come with them. It was not that Iris wanted someone to pledge their loyalty to her, but it felt nice to think she could help even one person from that pack. It eased her guilt a lot.

"He is fine, but he is underfed, we need to concentrate more on nourishing his health back first." Grace then glanced at Iris. "He is not willing to tell me his name, until he meets with you, Luna."

"That young boy has guts," Cane commented. It was hard to tell, whether it pissed him off or he simply praised him in a weird way.

"Zale! His name is Zale," Iris said. "I will go see him..."

"We will leave now, we have been delayed for long enough already, we need to reach the Diandem pack by tomorrow," Cane cut her off and turned around.

Iris grimaced and smiled at Grace. "Could you please tell him I will see him later?"

"Sure, Luna."

But, before Cane could get into the carriage, he was stopped by someone else and it was Ethan.
