Chapter 733: NOT ENOUGH TIME TO GRIEVE (2)
Cane found Iris was sleeping with the baby next to her when he returned from a long and tiring day. There were a lot of things he had to take care of and many secret messages that he had to reply for the plan to keep going.
The world didn’t stop, even time didn’t slow down just because his life was ruined and his heart shattered for the death of his daughter. Everything kept on the same routine and if anything, it felt taxing and Cane was no longer feeling anything, he felt like he was only moving out of instinct.
The world was bleak.
On the single sofa next to the bed, Grace immediately woke up from her sleep, she stayed with Iris all day and night and Aliana did the same thing too. Hanna came to see Iris this afternoon, but she was sleeping throughout the day, only woke up when Rora was crying, which was not often, the baby didn’t make fuss and spent most of the time sleeping.
Iris also refused to let her baby was being breastfed by another woman. Della had volunteered to do it, seeing how much Iris was shaken up for losing her baby, it would let her take some time to rest and grieve properly, but Iris turned down the idea almost immediately.
Iris and Della gave birth on the same day, because Iris couldn’t bring her babies to full terms.
"How is she?" Cane asked.
"The baby..." Grace started her explanation, but Cane cut her off.
"My mate."
"Oh..." Grace cleared her throat because she thought the alpha wanted to know about the baby’s condition first. "Luna is recovering, she will be fine within a week or two, but the problem is with her emotions..." The healer told Cane about what Aliana told her and some more. "It seems, the luna sometime forgot that her other baby didn’t make it..."
Somehow, Cane knew something like this might happen, remembering how Iris tended to forget something that hurt her. That was how she coped up. It would bother him if it reached to the point she forgot Crystal’s existence, which might happen in the future if she couldn’t deal with her grieve.
