Chapter 497: A FEELING OF RELIEF
Ethan could see the dull light in Iris’ eyes when Oliver tried to bring up the topic of Alpha Gerald and blamed him for their alpha’s misery, to an extent, the warrior tried to vent out his frustration on Iris.
Just like some of the other members, they still saw Iris as a reminder of their gruesome days and were hardly able to stand her presence.
However, Ethan could see how genuinely sincere Iris was and there was only one thing he couldn’t comprehend; how could Alpha Gerald father someone like her. It was like a nasty worm gave birth to a beautiful swan. The two creatures belonged to two different worlds.
"I don’t know if you have noticed this or not, but you are handling the pack and yourself really well, even without Cane."
Iris didn’t pay attention to Ethan’s voice before, but she thought his voice was very pleasant to her ears, especially when she could hear his sincerity in it. Probably, his voice was the second best after Cane’s. It was silly of her to rate other people’s voices, but this was something still new to her.
"I..." Iris pulled at her hair anxiously, flustered at the compliment and Ethan giggled to see her reverting back to her timid self.
"If someone complimented you, you should say ’thank you’."
"Don’t talk to me like I am a child." Iris pursed her lips and this made Ethan’s giggle turn into a laugh.
"Alright, I will call Amee over." He then left Iris alone inside the study room.
