Chapter 391: THE INNOCENT GAMMA

Iris was a runt, that was what everyone including himself thought in the beginning, but at this point, after witnessing what she could do, he was not sure about that anymore.

There was not much information on runts, but based on the little knowledge he had, no runt could perform magic. They couldn’t shift, nor did they have magical ability.

Yet, Iris proved time and time again that she had some special ability and Haco himself told him how he mistook her for a magic user when he saw her for the first time.

But, how could it be? Both Iris’ parents were shifters, there was no doubt about that...

"Where did you get this color from?" Cane pinched a flock of her fluffy, curly hair, as he twirled it between his fingers.

Iris had mentioned this before, she got this color from her maternal side, but she was not sure about it either, because at that time, it was her nanny who explained it to her when she was still a child. That piece of information was not really reliable.

Cane had asked Mason about what happened ten years ago and about Iris, but he didn’t know much about his sister either.

Cane narrowed his eyes, as he contemplated something. His jaw hardened, he was deep in his own thoughts, while staring at his mate. It was hard to tell what was running through the depths of his mind, until midnight came and his body started to shift into his lycan form.

This transformation was not as painful as before he met her. The pain was bearable and Cane could keep his consciousness to a certain level as long as he was close to Iris, as if the lycan didn’t want to do anything and was content enough to blanket itself with her scent, allowing Cane to take control.

The night was silent and the lycan snuggled closer to the sleeping woman, craving for warmth and peace...

=============================

Once Jace could get away from the drunk alpha Dristan and Koda, he immediately hunted down Ethan’s whereabouts.

As it turned out, he was guarding in front of the Alpha and the Luna’s bedroom, as tonight was a new moon and no one was allowed to enter.

Thankfully, with the dinner going well and Alpha Dristan and Koda being too intoxicated, no one would interrupt Cane at this moment.

"Ethan!" Jace rushed toward the Gamma once he learned he was here.

Ethan jolted when he heard Jace’s fierce voice calling his name. "Wh- what?" he stuttered, afraid to see the Beta’s expression right now. Did he do something wrong? But, he just arrived, how could he incur his wrath when he didn’t do anything?

"Tell me everything!" Jace demanded, his voice was stern, he was literally hissing at Ethan to keep his voice low, but he couldn’t hide the urgency in his tone even if he tried.

"T- tell you what? What do you want to know?" Ethan tried to get away from this beta out of instinct, his body turned defensive when Jace grabbed his shoulder to keep him in his place. "What is it? You are scaring me."

"Tell me what happened to the Alpha, tell me why he changed so much!"

"Calm down, calm down." Ethan tried to push Jace away. He was so close and their positions would only look misleading if someone were to chance upon them right now. "Can you move away? You are breathing in my face!" Ethan became a little bit irritated.

Realizing their positions, Jace immediately took a step back, but he didn’t stop demanding the answers.

"Explain to me why the Alpha is so attached to her. I heard they sleep in the same bedroom, the same bed." Even in the pack house, they had different bedrooms for the Alpha and the Luna, more so, Jace knew how much Cane disliked having someone else in his bed, let alone sharing it with another woman.

"Oh, right... they sleep in the same bedroom," Ethan replied lightly, as if there was nothing wrong with that fact, as if he was used to it by now, but it was a different case with Jace.

"I saw... I saw them kissing..." Jace looked like someone had stolen the air he was breathing when he mentioned it.

Ethan frowned. "I have never seen them kissing, but I am sure they did more than that behind closed doors."

Jace gasped in shock. "You know how Cane is. I can understand if they have sex every now and then, after all they are mates, he did that with Aria too, but you know... kissing is... Cane repulses it."

Both of them remembered how it went down with Aria everytime she tried to initiate it, thus Ethan must know how big of a deal it was for their alpha to let Iris kiss him.

However, to Jace’s surprise, Ethan didn’t look shocked at all learning about that, as if it was already expected.

"Yeah, I know. It must be weird for you to see Cane’s change, because you just met him after a few months, but for me and the rest of the warriors, who have been witnessing the interaction between Cane and Iris every day, such a thing is not surprising at all."

"What?!" Jace widened his eyes. "Tell me, tell me everything!"

Ethan’s eyes glinted with mischief when he saw how flabbergasted the Beta was. He thought he would spend the rest of the night standing in front of the door, counting stars and staring at the moon, but as it turned out, he got company.

"Sure!" Ethan said cheerfully, he was ready with his storytelling skills. He sat down on the floor and leaned his back against the closed door behind him. "Come here, sit down. This will be a long story, you better sit comfortably. Oh, wait, wait! Don’t sit down yet! It will be nice if we have a bunch of snacks and drinks! Why don’t you go and fetch a few for us from the main hall? "

"Are you kidding me? Are you ordering me around? I am the Beta!"

"Do you want to hear the story?" Ethan blinked his eyes innocently.
