The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355: I SWEAR, I DONT LIE!

Iris had never seen something like this before, nor did she have any idea the little lizard had an ability to disappear and appear again in different media of flames.

"How did you do that?" Iris was dumbstruck to see the little lizard in the young man’s hands.

The young boy smiled innocently and dropped the little lizard back in her hands, as he waited with expectant eyes. His green eyes looked so beautiful under the sunlight that streamed in through the window.

Iris received the little lizard and the creature curled its body on her joined palms, making small noises, as it nuzzled her thumb before closing its eyes.

"Who are you?" Iris narrowed her eyes. She didn’t feel this young man was dangerous, but their whereabouts must be kept secret. Even one word of them being out here would cause trouble for Cane’s entire plan and that was the last thing Iris wanted.

Albeit her not being clear with his whole plan, she at least knew not to divulge their location to anybody.

The young boy with golden hair only shook his head. He looked at her sadly and pointed his finger at Iris, which only made her confused further.

"What do you want to say?" Iris frowned while the little lizard in her hands had long fallen asleep, purring like a kitty. "Who are you?"

For the same question Iris asked him, he made the same gesture; pointing his finger at Iris.

"I don’t understand, why don’t you talk?" Iris forgot her fear a moment ago and took a step closer toward him. She remembered the last time they met, he talked to her, but why was he refusing to talk now?

Once again, he looked at her sorrowfully and shook his head, but then, his body stiffened. He looked toward the door before he turned around. He wanted to leave, as if he sensed something.

"No! Don’t go! Wait!" Iris grabbed his arm and was slightly surprised. She knew this man was lean, but not so thin. It almost felt like holding the arm of a child.

And everything happened so fast.

Cane entered the room with Jace behind him, he looked furious because he smelled another scent from inside the room and at the same time, the young man twisted his arm out of Iris’ grip, as he turned around and leapt from the window.

"Get him," Cane said coldly to his beta and Jace immediately shifted into his beast. He leapt from the window as well to chase after the man, while Cane grabbed Iris’ arm and turned her body around to get her attention. "What is this?" he asked grimly.

Iris was stunned to see Cane there, but then she immediately explained everything. She was afraid he would think it was her who invited the man to come. She didn’t want to be under Cane’s suspicion, because she had seen how devious he was always toward his enemies. She didn’t want to be on his bad side. Moreover, she didn’t want to lose the little trust she had gained from him.

"Oh, and look at this!" Iris tugged Cane’s sleeve to come closer to the fireplace and tossed the poor sleeping lizard into the flames. The little creature’s eyes widened when its body flew into the fire, as it let out a squeaking noise. "Come here, look!"
