Redmond scoffed when he heard Iris’ naïve words. He had never thought that he would actually hear such cheesy words.
What Iris said sounded too ’gentle’ for this harsh reality, she seemed to not understand the concept of how this world worked, such a naïve and sweet woman...
"Have you forgotten that he raped you? It’s that easy for you to forget?" Redmond enunciated every word clearly, so Iris wouldn’t miss a single word. He stared at her and watched how her expression changed when he reminded her again about it. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Will and Jace were seething when they heard what Redmond said, as they turned their attention toward Iris, whose face was blanched.
Jace couldn’t help but revive the memory when he caught Iris and Cane in the library. He could see how much pain she was in, but the only thing that he could do was to leave the scene, so his presence wouldn’t humiliate her further.
On another note, no one would be able to completely forget about such a dreadful experience. Of course, Iris remembered down to every detail of it now Redmond forced her to recall the memories that she tried so hard to bury deep in the back of her mind.
Iris took a step back. She was visibly trembling.
Even though it was not Redmond’s intention to cause her pain, he wanted her to think about it again. He didn’t want her to gloss over what Cane had done to her, although he treated her a little bit nice now.
Would it offset all those horrendous things that he had done to her? How weak her heart was to easily forget about it and pretend like it had never happened?
But, to think about it again, the Alpha only treated her nicely because he had a hidden agenda.
Cane was a lycan, he used dark magic, and for whatever reason, Jace said the cursed shifter was safe for Iris? What a ridiculous thing to say...! Yet, they seemed wanting to use Iris more, while this girl was too naïve and kind for her own good, as she let everything slide just like that.
A simple apology and treating her a little bit nicely were enough to make it up to her? They didn’t even punish those imbeciles who tried to stone her to death! How shameless were they to think they could use Iris again?
However, the part that drove Redmond crazy was the fact that Iris was not even aware of a single thing of it! Sometimes, when you were too kind and naïve, you would appear so stupid!
On the other hand, Iris was trying so hard to regain her composure and school her expression, but Redmond always knew how to attack with his words. His choice of words would always be ’delicate’, which could stir anyone around him, whoever heard it.
"I will take Luna Iris out," Will said. He took the initiative to get Iris out of this place, away from Redmond’s vicious mouth. He was afraid Iris wouldn’t be able to take it.
