The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 225

Chapter 225: UNSPEAKABLE MOMENT

Somehow, Iris was mesmerized by her mate and how they were wearing matching outfits. Cane looked exceptionally gorgeous in black, thus she smiled subconsciously.

However, her smile quickly disappeared when she saw how a dark wisp appeared from Cane’s hand again just like when they met with the King for the first time in the main hall.

Her eyes filled with horror when she approached Cane and took his hand, as she showed this oddity to him. _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}

"Look! This is what I saw that day!" Iris said, her voice was laced with panic because she was afraid something bad would happen to him.

Cane’s expressionless face finally showed some change when he witnessed the dark wisp that came from his hand. He didn’t feel there was something wrong with him, nor did he feel it when the dark wisp emanated from his palm.

"What is this..." he muttered under his breath, his brows knitted together deeply. There was something wrong with his body and he didn’t know what was that or how to stop it.

"This is what I was talking about when I said a dark wisp came out of you," Iris said, as Cane raised his hand to his face to see what kind of wisp that was.

It was almost like his hand was just on fire and the smoke came from it, yet he felt nothing. He didn’t even realize what was happening until Iris mentioned it.

Several thoughts came to his mind. He was sure this was the after effect of the dark magic that Aria used on him. Would this turn him into a lycan even when it was not a new moon?

His ears rang and everything became so bleak for Cane. He barely managed to keep his secret as a lycan, but now, this happened and he was not sure what he was anymore. He felt like one day he would turn into a monster.

All kinds of possibilities flashed before his eyes, but none of them had a good ending.

However, among his negative thoughts, all of a sudden Iris clasped his hand, she held him and covered the dark wisp with her hands.

"I do this and I think it will make the dark wisp go away," Iris said in a serious tone.

Meanwhile, Cane was unable to think anymore, he stared at their intertwined fingers and saw how the dark wisp gradually disappeared and when Iris loosened her grip, it was completely gone. His palm had turned normal.

"It’s gone!" Iris said cheerfully, as she raised her head and looked at Cane. His face was so pale.

"Let’s sit down for a while, I will get you a glass of water," Iris said, as she turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly, Cane pulled her back.

He hugged her from behind, as he buried his face in the crook of her shoulder before breathing in her scent, which could help calm him down.

Cane didn’t realize what he was doing, but even after he did, he didn’t let her go. If anything, he tightened his arms around her body further.

Meanwhile, not knowing what to do, she didn’t struggle to free herself from him, because somehow, she knew he wouldn’t do something bad to her. He only held her so close, like he did whenever they fell asleep together.

Was this another unspeakable moment between them? Something that they would never mention? A vulnerable moment, where they felt a little bit closer?

In the end, Iris stretched out her hand behind her and caressed his head, she ran her fingers through his hair.

"I am so scared, I don’t know what to do, I feel like everything will fall apart..." he whispered into her ear, but there was no way Iris could know what he was talking about.

However, that was what cued Cane to tell her about what he felt right now, because she couldn’t hear the sorrow in his voice.
