180: I DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE

I DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE

Ethan's expression looked very scary at this moment. His goofy self was nowhere to be seen. He looked like a beast who was going to rip apart his enemy. His whole body emitted a very dangerous aura, as he stared down at Bian and Dalia.

"Repeat what you said just now!" Ethan hollered, his brown eyes looked menacing when he glared down at them.

"Th- the mistress went to the Riverside pack… to- to look for the sorcerer, she wants him to retract the black magic…" Dalia stuttered. She stumbled with her words, but she couldn't bring herself to speak any more and glanced at Bian beside her.

Both of them knelt down in front of the Gamma, shivering in fear.

Meanwhile, Ethan was having a hard time reining in his anger. It had been his problem for a long time now. He could turn one hundred eighty when he was triggered.

And right now, these two women just told him that it was Aria who had done all of this. She created this huge ruckus that resulted in the death of an innocent child before endangering the Alpha's life as well!

"This is treason!" Ethan barked at them, which made them hit their heads on the ground, crying for forgiveness.

"Have mercy, Gamma Ethan!"

"Please, have mercy on us!"

Mercy? They just told him how they instigated their mistress to seek a helping hand from a dark magic user to cause a riff between Cane and Iris, which now had gotten out of hand completely!

"She cursed the Alpha! And the two of you will not leave unscathed!" Aria was to be blamed for what she had done, but these two were the instigators. Without their wicked ideas messing with her emotions, Aria wouldn't have done it!

Black magic!

This was not the first time Cane touched such a thing! What would happen to him now!? Aria could kill him without her knowing it, or have made things even worse for Cane! That stupid woman!

"Guards!" Ethan roared angrily and two guards entered the room hastily. They looked fearful, because they were not used to the gamma losing his temper like this. Ethan used to drink and fool around with them, thus to see how serious and humorless he was, they felt like they didn't know him at all. "Bring them to the dungeon!"

They cried out loud, as they were dragged out of the room. They were currently in Aria's bedroom, where Ethan interrogated the two of them about the disappearance of the mistress. There was no way they didn't know where she was and Ethan could smell something was wrong with the entire situation, especially seeing how dismissive they were.

"Gamma Ethan! Please, have mercy!"

"No! Not the dungeon! Not the dungeon!"

It was cruel to put them back in the dungeon after what they had gone through, but what they had done was beyond unforgivable! The Alpha could die just because of such an impulsive decision!

They were not aware that Cane had already touched dark magic once and how it almost cost him his entire life, but now they did this to him. Ethan couldn't imagine what would happen to Cane now.

Once the guards had dragged Dalia and Bian out of the room and locked them in the dungeon, Ethan went to find Jace, to let him know about this, since it was only him and Amee, who was aware about Cane's situation.

Yet, before he could go find him, he heard the commotion and his heart almost stopped beating when he saw the lycan fighting four guards with Iris in his arms, as he tried to flee in the mountain direction. From afar, Ethan could see Jace and Will chasing after him in their beast form.

However, they were not a match for the cursed beast, as he easily broke from them and set off to the Goffa mountain.

Ethan knew the situation had escalated pretty badly.

Without a second thought, Ethan shifted into his beast and chased after the lycan along with the others. The only thing in his mind was; did they know it was Cane?

============================== 

It was almost noon when Aria arrived at the Riverside pack. She immediately rushed toward the sorcerer's hut and banged on his door loudly, kicking it and hitting it without any reservation because she was scared that she would be too late to save Cane.

Thankfully, she was skilled enough with horses, thus she didn't need to wait until they prepared a carriage for her or fear she would alert the other people in the pack because she went out in the middle of the night.

She didn't stop until the door opened and a man in the middle of his thirties appeared, he looked neat and clean.

"Are you trying to tear my door down?" He asked languidly, looking amused by how angry the woman before him was.

Yet, Aria was having none of it, as she pushed him inside the hut. She shoved him to the side and started to lash out at him.

"One of the children died!" She roared. "What have you done to them!? You said it was harmless! You said nobody will die!" Aria was out of breath, her fear left her breathless.0

She didn't mean any harm to Cane. She didn't want to harm him! But, if the child died, the same thing could happen to Cane too!

"Break it! I don't want it! Break it!" Aria hit the sorcerer's chest out of frustration, bawling her eyes out.

Meanwhile, the sorcerer let her hit him as she liked without even trying to stop her, because it could help Aria calm down.

It took more than half an hour for Aria to stop before she flopped to the floor, her face was so red because of tears and her hair was messy.

"Can I talk now?" The sorcerer asked her softly, he reached out his hand to wipe away her tears and caress her cheeks.

"Lift it, I don't want him to die," Aria sobbed.
