Iris was staring at the distance, she became more anxious because it was only three hours away before midnight, which meant, they needed to find a secluded spot for him to shift into his lycan form without anyone noticed it.
Even so, Iris was not sure that she could keep the lycan calm enough to not make any noises that would attract attention from other until sunrise.
She wanted to talk about this with Cane, asking him what he was going to do with this situation, but he didn’t show up the entire morning and noon.
A little while later, Iris caught movement from the door and saw Cane walked into the room, he was wearing grey shirt and black pants, it was not a formal attire, but since it was simply a welcoming party that alpha Gallot threw out for him and Alan, especially when they were not prepared for this, it was justified.
But at the same time, Iris got a sense that he didn’t even want to put much effort to find a nice shirt for himself.
“Let’s go,” he said when Iris raised her head to look at him.
Cane was about to turn around, but Iris quickened her step before he walked out of the room and tugged on his sleeves. “I want to talk with you for a while.”
Cane tilted his head and looked at her expectant blue eyes. She looked beautiful in that dress, though it was a little bit bigger for her petite body, because she needed to keep pulling up the front dress, so it wouldn’t expose her chest and the length of it draped around her feet, but she still looked pretty in everything that she wore.
“What do you want to say?” Cane closed the door and faced her, he gave her his undivided attention.
“Alpha, tonight…“–
“I know, I have prepared everything, I just need you to stay with me.”
The sound of it was nice to hear, when he said that he needed her to stay with him, but Iris knew that
he needed her, not because he wanted her.
“What have you planned?” Iris wanted to know, aside from her curiosity, she felt like she was walking in the dark. It would be fine if this was not something so significant like the new moon, she could brush it off, but she felt anxious for not knowing anything.
Cane, like always, he rarely explained things to other if he thought it was not necessary. “Let’s go.”
But, Iris grew bolder, as she held his arm again to stop him. “Alpha, I don’t know if I can do anything for you. She bit her lips. “How can you be sure that I can keep your beast calm?” she muttered listlessly.
You can, Cane said simply.
He knew that she could, because he could keep his mind clear during the process and even when he shifted into his lycan form, he still had his consciousness intact.
Before, all he knew was pain, he was engulfed by pain and he didn’t have any control for what he was

Yet, with her close to him, her existence alone lessened the pain, which he couldn’t explain how it worked that way
However, when he was about to leave, tris tugged his sleeve again, which made him leaned his back against the door instead, he looked tired, but he listened to her question, though his reply was very short and didn’t really answer her question.
“Alpha Gallot talked to me this afternoon when I saw the fight outside” Iris was talking about the ruckus that Ethan had created. “He said that he wanted to help me to get my pack back and he also offered his help to lend his men to me.”
Iris ended up telling him everything that alpha Gallot had told her, aside from the part when he provoked her, where he reminded her about her status as Gerald’s daughter and how he already had Aria as his mistress
She didn’t want to bring it up, because it was not important, since alpha Gallot’s intention to say those things was only to rile her up. More so, Iris didn’t want to remind Cane about that fact. He would never forget that after all.
“You need to be careful with him, I don’t think he has a good intention. He is trying to sow discord between us.” Iris’s blue eyes glimmered with anxiety, she was really concerned about this.
It surprised her how alpha Gallot could throw them a welcoming party, while he was trying to stab Cane behind his back by using her.
But then, she knew so little about those crafty alphas and their malicious plans in their mind. This was how this world worked, she just tasted a little bit of it.
On the other hand, Cane didn’t show any reaction. He let her finished her report, Iris looked like a little child, who was telltale about other.
In the end, Iris narrowed her eyes. “He is not a good person”
Cane didn’t know what to say when he heard her last words. Probably, it was only her, who thought of alpha Gallot was a good person in the first place. Her little face was so serious when she warned him for something that was so obvious.
“Why didn’t you agree with him?” Cane asked. He just wanted to hear what her answer would be.
Iris blinked her eyes upon hearing that question. “You are my mate, I will never betray you.”
This was the same answer that she gave alpha Gallot, which he laughed at her for that, but she was serious with that simple and naive answer.
People like alpha Gallot wouldn’t understand that and brush it off, since that kind of answer was laughable.
Cane said nothing and just realized that Iris was quite a chatter, “Let’s go.” He caressed her cheek casually and then took her hand, so she wouldn’t hold him back again.
