The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 446

Chapter 446: BARE FEELING

Iris couldn’t believe Cane would say something like that to her. She was well aware that Cane was really good with his words, but he was using that skill on her now and she couldn’t help but turn so red, while the Alpha stared at his mate with fascination in his dark eyes.

"I thought you invited another man to our bedroom to bar the door," Cane said in a dark voice and this left Iris stunned when he put it that way.

"No! What are you trying to imply? Joel is just a boy!" Iris panicked a little, afraid Cane would misunderstand the situation. She didn’t want to put Joel in trouble, moreover, what Cane implied was a serious accusation.

However, Cane simply nibbled on her lip before he lifted his head to see the confusion and anxiousness in her blue eyes. "I know," he said simply. "But, people who don’t like you and the enemy will not care about such details. Be careful."

Right now, with the King here and his people roaming around their pack, they couldn’t be sure what kind of word that would reach the King and how it would be used against them, thus they needed to be extra wary with their actions.

For Iris and the people around them, what she did was an innocent act, but from an outsider’s perspective and those people, who wanted to take them down, a luna inviting one of the warriors into her chambers in the Alpha’s absence could be considered as an act of adultery. It was extremely inappropriate, in most cases, the woman would be killed on the spot by their man.

Probably, Joel didn’t think about that either, since the young warrior only thought of how to help the Luna, but such an innocent action could cost them more than they could imagine.

Iris only realized it when Cane mentioned it. She turned pale.

"I am sorry, I didn’t think twice... I really didn’t mean it that way." Iris shook her head vigorously.

"I know," Cane said in a reassuring tone, as he massaged the back of her neck to ease her tense body. "Don’t do it again."

Iris nodded. "I am sorry."

Cane said nothing, he only stared at her, which made Iris become even more confused because he didn’t give her any reaction. Was he still angry with her? Was he really upset because of that? Was he thinking about punishment? Or maybe he was thinking how stupid of a mate he had gotten himself.

This was a critical time and the King was only here for half a day and here Iris was, making a big mistake that would put her into a scandalous situation.

"C- Cane?" Iris was afraid of what he was thinking at this moment. "What are you thinking? Why don’t you say something? I am sorry."

Cane didn’t answer immediately, but then he talked in a small voice, almost like a whisper. "I really want to taste your sorry..."

"What?" Iris was not sure that she read his words right, but Cane was busy brushing his thumb against the bottom of her lip, as his eyes turned darker. His body felt so hot against hers, as if she was being engulfed by fire. "Cane, what is it?" She didn’t realize it, but she was whispering too.

"Iris, I want to make sure of something..." Cane looked hesitant, frowning slightly.

"What?" The tension in this room felt so weird, as if it reflected the intensity of the emotions Cane felt currently.

Cane still looked hesitant when he finally spoke again. "I want to make sure of this. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me to stop, understand?"

"What are you going to do?" Iris was a little bit worried because Cane looked very serious. His gaze was so sharp and his eyes looked like he was going to go feral.

However, when he leaned over and started to capture her lips, his kiss was so gentle. He ran his tongue over her lips, coaxed her to open her mouth and when she did, Cane bent over slightly and lifted her up by her thighs, which made Iris squeal and out of instinct, she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, while he put his arms under her bottom to support her body.

Iris lifted her head and stared at Cane, who was staring back at her with those hooded eyes. She understood what he meant and deep down knew what he wanted to make sure of.

"Not comfortable?" Cane asked and Iris blushed, as she knew where it would go, but if she stopped him now, probably he would hold himself back again and there would be no progress whatsoever between the two of them.

But then, did Iris really want him to stop?

Instead of replying to the question, Iris leaned over and this time, it was her, who kissed him first. Clumsily, she pried open his lips and sucked on his tongue, which made Cane grunt and pull his head back.

So many things had turned upside down, which brought them to this moment.

And this time, it was not about revenge or lust, or simply to fulfill their carnal desires, but how they wanted to put down the last barrier between them, embracing the feeling of being completely connected with each other.

"It’s okay, Cane..." Iris said, soaking in his feral gaze, as she caressed his hair. "I want you too."

This time, Iris didn’t blush, she didn’t feel shy to say what she felt about him, what she was feeling at this moment.

Cane wanted her, so did she.

The sunlight filtered through the window and warmth engulfed their bodies, adding serenity to the air, which helped Cane to calm down a bit, yet he didn’t dare to move, thus it was Iris, who made the first move.

She propped her body on her elbow, so she was in a half sitting position, while her other hand found purchase behind Cane’s neck, as she pulled him closer to her and kissed his lips.

She didn’t do what she did earlier, but she let him take the lead and when Cane started to bite her lip lightly, Iris matched his movement, until he became a little bit relaxed and laid her down on the bed again.

Iris didn’t know how to start this, thus she took his hand and put it over her chest. She wanted him to touch her, let him know that it was okay to touch her.

If she was sober enough and she was her timid self, or maybe when all of this was over, she would kick herself internally for being so raunchy.

Iris didn’t even know she had this side to herself.

But right now, Iris only wanted Cane to know that it was okay to touch her. She didn’t want him to touch any other woman, but her. She wanted him to do this only to her.

She wanted him to feel comfortable and bare only with her.
