Chapter 525: WHO ARE YOU?
"You can come out now," Aliana said in a light tone, as she stopped walking and tilted her head to her left side, staring at a certain spot behind a big tree.
Both of them were on their way to the orphanage, because it had been a while since Iris met with Hanna. She also wanted to have a conversation with Haco, who spent most of his time there. It seemed he was fond of one of the children there, as he always spared his free time to play with the girl and teach her a few things.
Iris stopped walking as well, she followed Aliana’s line of sight, while the other four warriors behind them frowned as well. Eron, Dyne and Kian were not with them, thus it was only the other four and Aliana, who came with Iris to the orphanage.
"Who is it?" Iris asked in confusion because she didn’t see anyone there, while the other four didn’t seem to be bothered.
"It’s okay, you can come out." Aliana used a coaxing tone.
Only then, Iris could see the movement behind the bushes and someone came out from behind the tree.
"Ania?" Iris immediately recognized the little girl. She looked a little bit taller than the last time she met with her and her rosy cheeks looked so cute. She was holding a white rabbit, hugging the animal with both of her arms. Its hindlegs dangled, while she walked toward Iris with a bright smile.
The other warriors knew that Ania had been following them, but because they didn’t see her as a threat, they were not concerned at all. It just had never crossed their minds that Ania actually wanted to meet with Iris.
"Luna Iris, you still remember me!" Ania said in a cheerful tone.
"She has been following us since half an hour ago, I thought she was just walking in the same direction, until I remembered, she is supposed to be at home," Aliana explained, then she looked at Ania with a questioning look, which made the little girl purse her lips and lower her head. "Your father must be in a panic, looking all around for you now."
"I was on my way home, but then, I saw Luna Iris. I want to greet her. Father didn’t allow me to greet her after she returned to the pack." Ania looked sad. "He said, Luna Iris must have forgotten about me, so I can’t bother her."
