Chapter 869: THE CHANGE IN HER SCENT
Iris startled when Cane kissed the tip of her nose, her sleepiness faded away the moment she realized the man, who was with her right now was Cane. He was here with her now and Iris felt like she was going to cry.
Iris hugged him tighter and buried her face against his chest. "Why it took you so long?" This was the longest Cane let Lu resurfaced and it was rather hard to see the person that you loved, but it was actually not him.
Even though Lu had said that Cane would eventually comeback, but every time she opened her eyes and it was not this pair eyes, who stared back at her, there was this sadness and restlessness that Iris felt. She was afraid Cane would never comeback to her. It was silly, but that was the truth.
"I am sorry," Cane said, he squeezed her body. From the sound of it, the alpha was clearly still exhausted and it must be hard for him to get back his consciousness from the lycan. "It must be hard on you to deal with everything alone."
Iris kissed his chest, she felt a heavy weight was just lifted off her shoulders. "It’s so hard when I want to kiss you, but I have to hold myself back because it felt so wrong."
Cane chuckled when he heard that. It sounded very cheesy and Iris actually laughed after what she said. Her mood improved significantly.
"Will you tell me what happened?" Cane knew the gist of the situation when Lu took over his body, but he missed a few important things, which he was not aware of.
"You need to rest, you still look tired."
"I am fine, I can handle this." Cane liked it when they talked about important and difficult thing, while holding each other, as if they would always have each other no matter how hard the situation could be.
There was no way out if Cane already insisted on something and Iris knew this matter was already very pressing to be discussed.
Thus, Iris spent an hour later to explain their current situation, including what Lu had done, which caused them to be here. They lycan literally moved all the forces to the enemy’s gate without any plan, aside from taking them down by fighting them off.
