Chapter 523: RESTLESS NIGHT (2)
"I am sorry I woke you up, I will stay still..." Iris felt bad that she disturbed his sleep, knowing how much rest Cane needed. With piles of work that he had to complete in order to get his pack back on its feet as soon as possible before they left for the Riverside pack and the Diandem pack and how he had to keep his ears open to the turmoil that happened in the capital city, his hands were already full. Not to mention Aderan caused trouble by taking away the Queen. Such matters would only bite Cane someday if anyone were to learn about this and needless to say, it would be another headache to be tackled down.
For now, Cane sent people in search of Aderan and to drag him back before he could board a ship. With the war for the throne happening for weeks now, not many ships got approval to sail. It should give them enough time to find Aderan and the Queen.
Iris knew about all of that and felt bad because she woke him up.
"I am sorry..." Iris said again meekly, as she stayed still, but Cane was the one, who couldn’t stop moving, as he kissed her lips down to her neck.
"I can’t fall back asleep," Cane said, as he slipped his hand under her dress and caressed her stomach, up to her ribcage, where he barely touched her breast.
Iris’ breath turned heavy with his touch and she knew immediately what he was going to do, but before he would do anything further, Cane lifted his head and stared at her.
"Is it okay if I touch you like this?" Cane asked, as he brushed his thumb against her nipple lightly. Iris blushed and nodded subtly, as she averted her gaze. The room was too bright to hide how her face turned crimson further. "How about this?" Cane cupped her breast and kneaded her soft skin with his palm.
Iris gulped down with difficulty, she pressed her lips to prevent herself from moaning as she reacted to the way he teased her.
But, because Iris didn’t answer his question, Cane stopped his movements. "Should I stop?"
Iris immediately turned her head to look at him with disagreement in her eyes. She opened her mouth, but she couldn’t find the right words to say without sounding so eager. Yet, when Cane leaned over and captured her lips, she melted.
