Chapter 568: DON’T TOO HARSH ON HER
Iris was not sure what she wanted to achieve when she said those words to Cane. She did it in the heat of the moment, she wished for him to know how much his decision had disappointed her, but now when she thought about it again, Iris felt like she was so insensitive.
Of course, Cane cared so much about his people, though he didn’t show it openly. She knew about it from the very beginning and her comment was so insensitive where she did not think about his feelings at all.
Iris stared outside of the window, feeling guilty, but she couldn’t rest her conscience with the thought they were leaving.
It was not that Cane didn’t help these people at all, he helped them by providing them basic things they needed to survive and even ordered Grace to heal them, or commanded his warriors to pull the dead bodies out and gather them in one place, so they could give their loved ones a proper burial.
However, the Alpha didn’t intend to stay longer than this. He wouldn’t change his mind about leaving.
Feeling guilty, Iris waited for Cane to come into the carriage, since she didn’t want to display any defiance in front of his pack members again. Challenging the Alpha in public was a crime and Iris was lucky to be able to get out of it unscathed.
However, after waiting for a long time and when the sun was about to set, it was Aliana, who came into the carriage, instead of Cane.
"You look so disappointed to see me, Luna," Aliana teased her. She always had this mischievous smile on her face, maybe because she used to be with children, she would always look so happy and positive, even when she didn’t even try.
"No, I am not." Iris lowered her head to hide her disappointment.
