232: THE SIGHT OF HER

THE SIGHT OF HER

After midnight passed and the party became so wild, where people leaned more on their animal's instinct and those men from the royal member and the prestigious family started to hunt down women for pleasure, Cane pulled Iris back to their bedroom. 1

"Change your dress," Cane said, as he rummaged the wardrobe, where Hanna had stored their belongings there, and found the clothes that he was looking for.

It was a warm shirt and pants that Cane gave to her, the kind of clothes that she used to wear when she was horse riding, while the alpha started to undress himself. He threw the formal clothes away, as if he couldn't bother with that, he was impatient to get rid of such clothes from him.

Seeing that, Iris avoided the sight, she blushed and then went to the bathroom to change her dress with the clothes that Cane gave to her.

However, the problem was; this kind of dress needed someone else to help her to untie the cord behind her back, which she couldn't reach by herself.

"Are you done?" Cane knocked on the door after he waited for ten minutes and she had not yet come out. They needed to leave now.

His original plan was to leave Iris in their bedroom, while he would sneak out to take care of his business, but he couldn't do that, because of the strange dark wisp that came out from his palms.

It was only Iris, who knew about this and he didn't intend to let anyone else to learn such thing, not even his beta and gamma, at least not now.

Therefore, he needed Iris to be close to him. This was like a tacit understanding upon this situation. There was no proof that she was the reason the dark wisp disappeared, but ever since she could tame the lycan, subconsciously, Cane believed she gave the same effect on this matter as well.

Iris alone was a mystery. How she could do that?

"Iris?" Cane knocked again because there was no answer from inside, but soon after the door was opened and Iris's face appeared, she looked anxious and surprised to see him, but still wore her dress.

"I think, I need help…" she said timidly. She didn't know where Cane would take her, but she knew that he was in hurry and she couldn't keep him waiting.

Cane frowned, but Iris opened the door wider and turned around to show her back to face him.

"I can't untie it," she said in small voice, as she gathered her long, auburn hair to her left shoulder, showing her neck and he could see how his mark peeked through the collar laces.

Cane stopped himself from wondering off his eyes on his mark and focused on the complicated tangle cord on the back of her dress. He frowned.

The alpha was clueless.

However, in the end, he simply tore the dress to make it faster, which made Iris gasped when she felt the reckless movement and immediately turned around.

"You ruin the dress!" Iris was shocked that he did that to this beautiful dress. She really cherished it, but how could Cane know about that, he wanted to get thing done quickly.

"Change your dress," Cane said simply, as he pushed her inside the bathroom lightly and closed the door for her.

Despite had seen each other naked, Iris was very self conscious with her body and Cane knew about that. He saw the whipped mark on her back again when he tore the dress and this made him gritted his teeth, as his eyes turned murderous.

On the other hand, this time, it only took Iris five minutes to change her dress into the shirt and pants that Cane gave to her. She walked out of the bathroom and Cane handed her another layer of clothes.

It was a black shirt made of wool, which could keep her warm and after that, he gave a dark cloak for her to wear, as he covered her hair and half of her face under its hoodie.

"Don't raise your head and show your hair or face," Cane warned her. He didn't mean to take her in this journey, but he couldn't leave her alone too. Actually, it was not for her, but it was more for him.

Iris nodded, right now, it was only the tip of her nose and her lips that could be seen. Cane then checked on her once again before he took his hand and guided her toward the window.

He opened it and the cold wind made Iris shuddered involuntarily, which made her crept closer to Cane, since his body was so warm.

Just like before, Cane put his hand around her hip and drew her closer, but this time, he lifted her body, as he carried her out of the bedroom through the window.

Iris was surprised. She was afraid, because it was so high from the ground and if she stumbled and fell, she didn't think she would be able to make it.

"Why don't we use the door?" Iris was too terrified, as she clutched Cane for dear life, but once she finished her question, she knew how absurd that sounded. Of course, they wouldn't use the door.

But, even though the question was ridiculous, Cane still answered her. "We can't let anyone know that we leave the palace," he said. He tightened his grip on her waist when they jumped to the other building.

All the people thought Iris and Cane had their intimate moment right now behind the close door. Remembered how he treated her so well and paid close attention to her, it almost looked like he was infatuated with her. The alpha even openly rejected Nala and showed display of affection, leading them to think that Cane desired his mate and Iris was still his favorite for now.

Thus, when the two of them retreated early to go back to their bedroom and didn't enjoy the party, they didn't find it suspicious.

To think up to here, this man was really calculated.
