583 I CAN BE YOUR BAD LUCK

But, the problem was; she couldn't hold back her bitterness and anger. How dared they questioned Cane's decision and even called her a bad luck?

And more so, from what she got from their conversation, they treated Zale poorly, it rubbed her in the wrong way, since they also saw her as an outsider even after all this time, even after all she had done.

Furious, Iris marched toward them.

"What now?" Eron looked at Aliana, so didDyne, as if asking what she was going to do. Should they stop the luna, seeing how she was seething, didn't sit well with them.

Iris was the type, who would be very quiet when she was angry, she would avoid any confrontation and if she could, she didn't want to engage with the people, who had caused her to be angry.

ICAN BE YOUR BAD LUCK

But right now, it was different, she was doing the opposite and they became curious to know what those warriors said, which had flipped her off.

"Let's watch this!" Aliana said excitedly, asshe followed behind Iris.

"Why do you look happy?" Dyne frowned atAliana. "Shouldn't we stop the luna? I don't know what caused her anger, but it will not look good on her if she lashed out on them."

"Why not?" This time, it was Aliana, whowas frowning at Dyne."From what I learned, she has been patient enough with the bad rumor about her and how people badmouthing her, whatever she is going to do, they will dislike her anyway." Aliana shrugged her shoulder. "So, what is the point of being nice?" 1

"Aliana!"Dyne was shocked by hownonchalant Aliana was with her answer, while Eron didn't say anything, he was simply curious what the luna was going to do and how she would deal with them.

At the same time, Iris walked ahead of them, which made her missed their conversation, but even if she was within an earshot, her mind was too busy to listen to their argumentation.

The two warriors finally stopped talking when they saw Iris approached them, they gave her a solemn nod and was about to leave, thinking this was only a mere encounter, but when they walked past her, she spoke in an even tone.

"So, the alpha is a fickle person and I am abad luck?" Iris said coldly, which startled the two of them. They stopped walking and turned their head to look at her. "Is that how you see the alpha and me?"

Iris still detached from thinking this pack belonged to her, neither this people was her people too, thus she referred to Cane by his title, but she didn't use it for herself.

"That's how you perceived the alpha'sdecision? As a fickle person?"

The two warriors gasped and their expression hardened. They didn't think their conversation would be heard by her. How she knew about their conversation? She was in the distance away earlier!

"Lu- luna, I don't understand what do youmean..." One of the warriors, who was taller than the other spoke, he stumbled with his words, because he felt very embarrassed.

"You know what I meant, warrior." Iriscasted them a cold gaze and they could feel shiver ra n down their spine. They had never seen the luna looked so fierce like this.

She didn't raise her voice, she didn't insult them, but her calmness reminded them of their alpha and how they feared this side of their alpha the most, whenever he suppressed his anger and appeared so calm. It was not a good sign and that was how they felt about this luna.

"Questioning the alpha's decision is an earlystep of betrayal, don't you agree with your

own rule?" Iris read a lot of things and she happened to read the Howling Wolf warrior's oath when they stepped up into their role as a full-fledge warrior of the pack.

Usually, the oat would be taken once they finished with their training and Joel had taken it when Iris and Cane were away to the capital city, with the beta as the witness. Joel took the oath along with all of his friends that died during the attack.

"Luna, I don't understand what do youmeant..." The other warrior looked like he was going to play dumb, but Iris was having none of it, as she recalled what they said earlier and the more she talked the more their expression turned so pale, especially when Aliana, Eron and Dyne listened to it.

So, that's what they said that pissed the luna off.

"I can't believe it you have such vile way ofthinking!" Dyne snarled at the two of them.

He could understand why the luna was furious, because he did too.

"What? Am I wrong?!" The taller warriorsnapped back, they had been exposed, so what else to be denied? They didn't like the luna and that was true, there was nothing to be talked about. "We were only talking about what we felt, it is not something that you should eavesdrop."

"You went out of line!" Aliana growled atthem and it seemed, they listened to her more than their luna, as they shut their mouth out of respect for the beta's younger sister. "Luna, let's go, it's only a waste of time to be here."

Seeing Iris couldn't fight them back, Aliana took the initiative to get her away. Maybe she needed more time and was not ready to be able to confront them.

Yet, Iris didn't budge, she stared at the two warriors in front of her and saw their wolf spirits. She tempted to squeeze them to

death like she did when they were attacked by the Silver Warrior. The feeling of killing your enemy was not as terrible as she thought.

At first, she did it to Mason and all she felt was a relief, there was not any guilty feeling she felt afterward, somehow, she felt powerful to be able to protect herself and do harm to people, who hurt her. She felt great and confidence.

Was this a small taste of power? It felt so addictive. No wonder, so many people would do everything to gain more and more power, even when they were already powerful enough.

And now Iris got a taste of it too.

How easy it would be for her to end their lives right there and then. They wouldn't have time to scream for help, even so, no one would be able to help them.

Iris shook her head internally when the thought of killing these two plagued her

1111114.

"Hate me all you like, but if you betrayedthe alpha, you can see how I can be your bad luck," Iris finally spoke.

"We will never betray the alpha!" The tallerwarrior growled dangerously at Iris.

In the past, she would curl herself in fear when someone directed their anger at her and she would immediately apologize for anything or everything she had done wrong, especially when they looked so dangerous like the warrior before her.

But not now. She was more than capable to protect herself and end their lives. She was not in danger, but it was the other way around.

Eron and Dyne were about to step forward out of instinct to protect their luna, because they could sense danger coming from their fellow warrior.

"It's so rich, coming from people, whoquestioning their alpha's decision," Iris said

in a mocking tone, as she gave them a derisive look, which pissed the taller warrior even more.

Everything happened so fast when that warrior jumped toward Iris, his friend tried to stop him, but he was a ta d bit late, while Eron and Dyne managed to bring him to the ground. Held him there so he wouldn't be able to move to hurt the luna.

"Aliana!Bring the luna out of here!" Eronshouted at Aliana, who was already by Iris's side, but Iris swatted her hand away when she was about to drag her to a safe place.

"Arrghh!Arrgghh!" The taller warriorscreamed on the top of his lungs, while his friend couldn't do anything and stared at the whole situation with wide eyes, things escalated too fast and he didn't know what to do.

He knew they were at fault for talking badly about the alpha and luna, and this guilty feeling prevented him from backing his

friend when he had the altercation.

"Arrgghhh!!" The taller warrior wailed evenmore.

"Oh! Shut up!" Dyne was annoyed becausehe kept screaming like a child throwing a tantrum."Why he keeps screaming!?" 1

"Let him go," Iris said to Dyne and Eron.

"But, luna..." they were about to protest.

"Let him go." Iris simply repeated her words,while the warrior was still struggling and screaming.

Once Dyne and Eron moved away from him, he could see how their fellow warrior curled his body on the ground, his whole body tensed up, as if he was going through a great agony. 1

"What happened to him?" Eron frowned. Hewas sure none of them hurt him, they only held him down. "Luna, you can't come closer to him!"

Eron grabbed Iris's el bow to prevent her

from getting closer to the warrior.

Iris didn't fight him, she stared at the warrior and soon after the pain subsided, leaving him panting so hard and then she spoke with the same tone like earlier. "I told you, I can be your bad luck. Do you really thing you are so great to be able to defeat so many Silver Warrior days ago?" Iris's blue eyes darkened, so did the five swords.
