Iris finished her meal as fast as she could, because she wanted to go and see Cane. She felt uncomfortable sitting silently and even felt guilty because she fell asleep comfortably when the others were facing a hard time. She was very sure Cane didn’t get any sleep last night.
"Slow down, missy, you will get a stomach ache if you eat like that," Hanna warned her lightly, but Iris pushed aside the plate and declared she was done. She only ate half of her meal.
"Let’s go."
"The Alpha will come to fetch you."
Iris shook her head as she stood up and picked up Cane’s cloak. She wore it and it felt so warm.
"We can wait outside of the building, it will save time for him too, so he doesn’t need to go back and forth," Iris said impatiently, as she put on her shoes and walked toward the door.
Knowing she wouldn’t be able to talk her down, Hanna didn’t have any other choice, but to follow her missy. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Once Iris stepped out, Trion greeted her happily, while Redmond looked at her with a frown between his brows.
"Wait," Redmond said sternly, as he grabbed Iris’ arm before she could dash to her mate.
Seeing this, Iris frowned because she was being stopped. "What is it?"
"We need to talk." Redmond didn’t wait for Iris’ reply and dragged her back into the royal sorcerer’s study room. When Hanna tried to follow them inside, Redmond closed the door before she could enter. "Leave us alone for a while," he said before he slammed the door shut.
"What do you want to talk about?" Iris stood in the middle of the room, her blue eyes alight with irritation.
"Do you know what he has been doing? With all of his plans? Did he tell you about it all?" Redmond asked all the questions that had been piling up in his head. "Did he give you a clear picture of his plan?"
Ethan and the others had undying faith in Cane, they believed him unconditionally. Even if they had to go through fire and storm without any explanation, they would make sure to complete the task that was given to them with flying colors.
However, it was Cane’s trait not to divulge his plan to anyone else. He only gave people an order, telling them what had to be done without further explanation, until they could figure it all out by themselves.
The members of the Howling Wolf pack were extremely loyal to their alpha.
But, Redmond was not from the Howling Wolf pack, he didn’t pledge his loyalty to Cane. It frustrated him when he had to follow his orders, because his intention in the beginning when he refused to bend his knees to the Alpha was so he didn’t need to have Cane ordering him around.
Yet, he ended up in the same state he had tried to avoid.
More so, without any explanation, how could they expect him to do any task blindly? He felt like he was walking on eggshells. He didn’t know the plan, thus he wouldn’t know when something went wrong with this plan.
While the others completely trusted their alpha’s judgment, the same thing didn’t work with Redmond. He wanted to be sure about what they were doing and what direction they were heading in.
