582 IRIS WAS FURIOUS

The beta and ga mma of Diandem pack greeted Iris and Cane. The two of them personally escorted the alpha and luna to their bedroom, but it was not alpha Adrian's bedroom, since Cane didn't want to sleep in his bed, knowing what kind of things that happened on that bed. 1

This room was not too big, but not small either, it was comfortable enough for the two of them.

"I hope you enjoy your stay here, alphaCane." Argean, the gamma of the pack said. He looked solemn, it was hard to tell what he was thinking to have the exact person, who had killed his alpha to stay in the pack house.

Grory, the beta had the same expression as well. Both of them didn't show much emotions, which not allowed them to lower their guard.

"You must be tired, I will ask someone toprepare food and your bath." Grory nodded at Cane and Iris. Both of them didn't look

like they were harboring any grudges, but most of the time, did not believe what you saw, because it could deceive you, especially at situation like this.

"You can prepare that for the luna, we needto talk," Cane said, he didn't waste his time anymore, since they had delayed their arrival for three days because of the last attack from the Silver Warrior.

Argean and Grory looked at each other and then nodded.

"Over here, please," Grory said respectfully,but this made Iris felt a little bit uncomfortable with the way they acted. 1

"Take a rest," Cane said to Iris, as helowered his head to kiss her forehead.

Seeing this scene, there was a weird glint crossed their eyes, which didn't go unnoticed by Iris, since Cane had his back against them when he kissed his mate.

However, Iris couldn't tell what was that and was not able to judge whether it was only her seeing thing or it was only them stared at Cane's affectionate gesture in a

weird way.

"Okay," Iris replied, she watched Canewalked out of the bedroom and soon after, it was Aliana, who entered. She would always by her side whenever Cane was absent.

This must be the benefit that she could offer that no other warrior could, since she was a woman. That was why, Cane accepted her as one of Iris's personal warriors.

"Aliana, do you know where they put Zale?"Iris had promised to see him later when she got the chance.

"I thought the alpha told you to take rest?"Aliana gave her a mischievous look, because the luna was being a little bit bratty for agreeing to stay, but once the alpha left, she was about to do the opposite.

"I will rest..." Iris said timidly and thenadded."... later."

Aliana laughed. She liked it when Iris did not always listen to the alpha and knew what she wanted to do."Okay, but who is Zale?" she had never heard about that name before, she was sure it was not one of the

Howling Wolf pack warrior, maybe that was Bloody Wolf warrior, who came with them? But, how Iris knew them?

"The young boy, who followed us from theSilver River pack."

"Oh!" Aliana knew the boy, but not hisname. "I don't know where he is exactly, the other warriors must take care of him, but I can ask around."

"I will come with you."

Iris and Aliana walked out of the bedroom, where the seven warriors were waiting for them, Eron and Dyne greeted her happily like usual and the other five still had reservation with her. Iris couldn't care less about that.

Aliana then order the other five warriors to find out where Zale was, while Iris wanted to see Haco and Joel first. The last time she met the young warrior, he was already able to stand up and this made her so happy.

Joel even knelt down in front of her to thank her, while Haco's condition was getting worst, most of Iris's visit to learn

magic from him, he would end up telling her story about his life in the Holy Kingdom. It was nothing important, only trivial things like what he was doing in daily basis.

Sadly, because of that, her power didn't improve and she only knew basic magic and theoretical speaking.

"Joel, do you have more clothes to bespared?" Iris asked Joel when she checked on his condition and saw he was already able to walk in short distance. Her heart felt at ease to know she could be a help for people around her.

"Yes, I have a few clothes to be spared, whydo you need them luna? If I might know."Joel was standing in front of Iris and then walked to get some of his clothes, even before Iris gave him the answer.

He didn't need the answer though, everything the luna wanted, she could take it. He would give everything for her.

Iris then told him about Zale and how that rug like clothes must be very

to see the little boy, only Iris heard something that she didn't like. No, she didn't hear it, she read their conversation from afar by reading their lips.

"The boy didn't speak at all and play withthe silly bear, I think he is as dumb as that furball."

"Agree. I don't think he will survive forother days in this condition. No one want to share a room with him, just in case the healer missed something and he spread his disease on us."

"I can't understand why the alpha is takinghim in, he should have sent him away."

"It must be because of the luna. The alpha isnot usually soft hearted like this. But, because of the luna, he becomes a little bit fickle."

"Yes. I am sure the reason why we stayedfor other days in the Silver River pack is because the luna was throwing temper tantrum."

"Someone like her shouldn't be the luna."

"I still can't believe the alpha takes Gerald'sdaughter as his mate." 1

"It's because at that time, the king wantedthe alpha to hand over the Blue Moon pack."

And the conversation went on with the same things. Now, Iris learned that these warrior's dissatisfaction toward her had affected their way to see Cane. They started to question his order because they thought, Iris had altered the alpha's decision.

"I can't understand why the alpha likes herwhen she doesn't even carry his child and abandon the one, who does."

They were talking about Sofia now.

"There is this rumor among the warrior thatthe luna is actually able to do magic. Can you believe that? She is a runt, a shifter, who couldn't shift into her beast, but now she can do magic."

"Do you think she can do something to the

alpha with her magic?"

"I am not sure, but Oliver has mentionedabout the luna is a magic user and she can see the spirit of the dead people. Oliver said she brought a bad luck for the alpha and in extent to the pack also."

"What Oliver meant with that?"

"I am not sure, he only said something sovaguely, but he looked so angry every time he talked about the luna and he believed, she brought a bad luck."

"Oh, have you forgotten what happenedwhen she managed to save that weird young boy? People said, she saw the spirit of his little sister that had died during that time and that spirit was the one, who guided her to find the spot where the boy was buried."

"Oh, right!"

"Don't you think that was a sign of bad luck?I mean... being able to see dead people is not a common thing."

"Yeah..."

Iris read their lips, they were distances away, but she was able to see their lips and she knew about their conversation. She couldn't accept this. They had talked a lot of nonsense about her and now they brought Cane down as well.

"Luna, are you okay?" Eron asked, he camecloser to Iris because she suddenly stopped walking and stared angrily at the two warriors in the distance.

Aliana swatted Eron's shoulder and shook her head, which made Eron and Dyne frowned at her.

"What they were talking about until theluna looks so angry?" Dyne asked in low voice, but both of them didn't know, since they were out of an earshot.

Iris closed her eyes, she used to suppress her emotions and avoid trouble, she didn't want to make things difficult and if she could, she wanted to ignore their comment.
