Chapter 825: THE WAR OF DARKNESS AND LIGHT (10)
Hearing what Cane said, hurt Iris’s heart. She cried even more and rested her head against his chest, while Cane caressed her head. He needed some time to regain his strength.
Everything that happened, had drained the alpha and the weird memories he just walked through left him exhausted emotionally.
"I have never done anything right for you. The thought of me making you cry repeats in my head." Cane ran his fingers through her hair, while his mate was crying. "I am sorry for making life difficult for you. Giving you more trouble to endure. I am sorry for giving you pain which was so uncalled for."
Iris shook her head. "Please, stop. You are hurt too... don’t apologize to me..."
She couldn’t imagine what kind of pain that Cane had to go through to be here and the alpha also felt the same thing, he was very grateful Iris was strong enough to endure everything.
Both of them had been hurt and had gone through their own hell. Life was not fair and they knew that so well now they had walked every milestone in each other’s lives, they knew their own mate better than anyone else. They knew their pain.
"I am sorry, Cane... I am sorry for leaving you alone when you needed me." Iris cried her heart out.
The mate bond between them had broken, but the feeling they had right now was genuine. They cared for each other. They loved their own mate even without the mate bond between them...
"You never left me, Iris. You are always by my side." That was why he was still alive.
In their lowest point, Cane had promised himself that he would end his life the moment Iris was gone. Therefore, she had never left, or else, he wouldn’t be here too.
Iris bit her lip, she clutched his clothes tightly, afraid she was going to lose him. The sound of his heartbeat was really comforting.
