272: DON'T YOU REMEMBER

DON'T YOU REMEMBER

The first thing that Iris saw when they arrived at this quiet restaurant was the extravagant carriage in the color of dark purple in front of it. This place was not usually almost empty like this, but it was intentionally cleared because there was an important figure inside, as you could see a few royal warriors guarded this building. 2

Only those princes, princesses and all the royal family, who were allowed to take the royal warriors.

Cane dismounted the horse and helped Iris to get down too, as one of the royal warriors approached them and took the horse away.

"We will eat with prince Kellan," Cane informed Iris.

Hearing that name, she was stiffened. A rush of uneasy feelings came within her, she felt like she wanted to flee from this place, but instead, she let Cane to take her to walk into the building.

Iris did not know why she felt like this. She was almost sure she had never had any problem with prince Kellan before. She barely remembered him, but why the thought of him was so dreadful?

On the other hand, Cane glanced at Iris, he saw how sluggish she was. She lowered her head and clutched her dress tightly, something that she always did whenever she felt uncomfortable.

However, Cane couldn't figure out what the reason of it. She was fine just a moment ago.

A warrior walked them to the second floor and opened the first door on the left, let them walked inside, while Ethan and Redmon stood on guard with the other royal warriors outside.

This room was not too big and there was only one table with four chairs in the middle of the room, the wall was white with a lot of picture hang on it, there was a citrus fragrance when they stepped in, while prince Kellan was sitting on his wheelchair, staring at a huge window, the sky was clear and the winter sun was dim.

The prince turned his head when Cane and Iris approached the table. His smile was so warm, like a morning sun, as his eyes lit up gently.

"It's a pleasure to meet you both," prince Kellan said in his pleasant voice. He looked exceptionally gorgeous in his dark purple robe. No wonder people liked him, because he had this charm on him that could make people comfortable to be close to him.

However, Iris still felt uneasy with the sight of prince Kellan.

Cane took her to sit next to him, facing the prince, while he held a conversation with the prince and Iris kept staring at her fingers, fiddling with her dress.

"The pleasure is mine," Cane replied.

They exchanged a few pleasantries word before they ordered food for their lunch. A waitress came to the room and she looked smitten by the two men there. She knew about prince Kellan, but she kept glancing curiously at Cane.

Only when she noticed Iris with her auburn hair, she got the clue about Cane's identity that he was the alpha of the Howling Wolf pack. People in the city had been talking about the two of them.

Cane tapped Iris's shoulder to get her attention. "What do you want to eat?" he asked, as he gave the menu to her.

However, Iris didn't even see the menu at all before she spoke softly. "Same like you."

Cane didn't prod her and gave the menu, as he ordered the same thing for both of them, while prince Kellan ordered a few dishes.

"Luna Iris, isn't it?" prince Kellan started a conversation with Iris and this made her lifted her head, as Cane let her know that the prince was talking to her. "The last time we met in the main hall, I didn't have a chance to great you. My apology for my rudeness," prince Kellan said politely.

"It's supposed to be me, who needs to apologize for not greeting you at that time." Iris's voice sounded normal, but she couldn't stop fiddling with her fingers, feeling uncomfortable.

She felt so silly to have this kind of feeling when prince Kellan was being respectful with her.

"I remember I went to the Blue Moon pack for the first time when you are only six years old. I saw you from afar because your hair is very pretty." Prince Kellan reminisced that moment.

Iris didn't say anything, she didn't remember any of that. She only knew the prince often visited the Blue Moon pack, but her memory was fuzzy during that time. She couldn't tell whether they had met when he visited or not, or what he was doing in the Blue Moon pack.

"Did you remember when I comforted you when you cried because alpha Gerald didn't allow you to play with that stable boy?" prince Kellan looked at her expression closely, waiting for her reaction when he mentioned that moment.

But, Iris only remembered the stable boy that her father had killed because she played with him, yet she didn't remember when prince Kellan came to her comfort.

That was the sad moment that she wanted to forget because she lost the only person she could call as a friend.

"I am sorry, prince Kellan, I don't remember that moment." Iris shook her head. She wanted to end this conversation with him, because the way he looked at her made her suffocated.

"You don't remember?" Prince Kellan emphasized this question and Iris shook her head again. "It's okay, you were only eight years old at that time and it had been a long time ago, it's normal for you to forget." There was this warm smile that tugged on his lips. He looked so kind and nice.

Iris said nothing and Cane noticed how uncomfortable his mate was with this conversation.

"I heard you built new orphanage building again after two monster attacks in the new year party," Cane stated swiftly, as he grabbed Iris's hand under the table, because she clutched her dress so tightly.

Prince Kellan sighed. "Many parents died during the attack, leaving so many orphan."
