Detailed explanation-1: -This alternation is caused by a historical palatalization of /k/ which took place in Late Latin, and led to a change in the pronunciation of the sound [k] before the front vowels [e] and [i].
Detailed explanation-2: -In Anglo-Saxon English C was pronounced “k” or “ch” then the French invaded in 1066 and introduced the soft C ("s” sound).
