Chapter 419: THE NEW REALIZATION
Cane realized something new about Iris now.
Whenever she was very hurt, she numbed herself and turned very cold, aloof to her surroundings. It almost looked like she could see someone bleed to death and not even give a damn about it, while her normal self would have cried her heart out looking for help.
She turned herself into that emotionless and callous person, as she tuned out the world completely.
Iris’ statement earlier not only surprised Cane, but the small crowd as well, since they didn’t think the timid and soft spoken luna could say such a thing.
In the back of their minds, seeing how Iris was not an insensitive person, they thought she would help Kaz and the others when they begged her for help.
Probably, what she had done for them had backfired until these people thought she was a pushover. They always thought she was ready to help them, because she felt guilty for what her father had done to them and would swallow everything that was thrown at her if they showed her a little bit of kindness back.
"Take care of the people here," Cane said darkly to Jace, as he followed Iris out of the kitchen. He ignored Kaz and the others’ plea to show some mercy on themselves. They apologized for their behavior, but it was a little too late for them to do so.
More so, the apology should be directed to the Luna, not the Alpha. They still had their remorse misplaced.
"Yes, Alpha." Jace nodded solemnly, too afraid to look at Cane right now, because he really took the role as an alpha now, the Beta was too afraid to even call him by his name.
