Chapter 405: IRIS WAS EXCITED

Iris was holding the lizard in her hands, while waiting for Cane to return. She perched on the windowsill, hoping to catch a glimpse of him.

Meanwhile, Hanna was lost for words, as she once again reminded her missy that the Alpha would probably return late because he was participating in a serious discussion about the tunnel with the merchant and the Alpha from the Red Claw pack.

Yet, Iris didn’t listen to her, because she wanted to let Cane know something as soon as possible. This was something important too.

And when she saw Cane walking in the hallway, she immediately went out of her bedroom. She approached him, which surprised him. He frowned.

"What happened?" Cane’s mind went to the worst possible thing that could happen while he was away, because that was how he saw the situation. It was almost like an instinct to him.

"Come, come with me, I want to show you something." Iris tugged his sleeve, so he could follow her, though without her pulling him around like this, Cane would eventually arrive at their bedroom.

Meanwhile, Jace, who walked with Ethan slightly further back, stared blankly at the sight.

"I don’t know when I will get used to seeing this sight..." Jace shook his head. "I still can’t wrap my head around the idea of Cane being affectionate with her."

"Get used to it," Ethan said nonchalantly, he didn’t find the sight weird.

On the other hand, Iris took Cane into their bedroom and Hanna immediately excused herself, leaving the two of them alone.

"What do you want to show me?" Cane saw Iris looking for her lizard around the room. It seemed when she stood up abruptly earlier, the lizard took the chance to free itself from her grip and hide.

"Wait, I need to find the lizard first," Iris mumbled to herself, as she looked at every corner of the room.

But, even after ten minutes of hectic searching, she still couldn’t find the little creature, which only made her grow frustrated. She had been waiting for this moment all day, but the lizard had to disappear.

Without saying anything, Cane walked toward the door and said something to the guard out there before he returned to the room and beckoned Iris to sit down.

"Cane, you will not believe it! I found something amazing about the lizard! I don’t know how to explain it, that’s why I need to show you!" Iris was very excited and frustrated at the same time, her face bright red.

"Just sit down," Cane said patiently, while his mate was still roaming around the room looking for the little creature. In the end, Cane carried her by her waist and sat her down, which left Iris flustered.

Right at that time, someone knocked on the door and the guard gave Cane a plate of meat, which was still so hot. The piping steam wafted in the air. The smell of it was so delicious.

Cane brought the delicious meat inside and soon after, the room was filled with this appetizing smell.

"You have not eaten yet?" Iris asked. It was already close to midnight.

Cane cut the juicy meat which made Iris lick her lips. She had had her dinner, but the meat before her eyes was still a welcome sight.

Cane then stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth before she could start drooling. Her appetite had improved recently. "I have."

Iris munched and felt happy with how delicious the meat was.

On the other hand, Cane stood up and walked behind her, while Iris continued to eat the meat, but when he returned to sit down on the seat across from her, he had the lizard in his hands. "What are you going to do with this thing?"

It was still a mystery how the lizard could end up in Iris’ hands. The fire stone was with Arthur and the other spies for years, but only when it fell into Iris’ hands, did it hatch into this salamander.

This creature was supposed to be extinct after the great monster attack fifty years ago, as the Serafim used them for protection.

Fifty years ago...

Cane frowned at that time line. Fifty years ago was the first time the lycan attached itself to Haco. Was that a coincidence?

"Oh, I will show you something!" Iris put down her fork and knife, as she extended her hand to grab the lizard, which was now struggling in Cane’s grip. Its small eyes glared at the Alpha, but it didn’t dare to spew fire at him.

The lizard was a little bit bigger than Iris’ palm now and its color had turned dark red. She grabbed it with her left hand, went to the table and took a parchment before she sat down again.

Meanwhile, the lizard struggled to get to the meat on the table. The smell was so delicious and tempting for it to miss it.

Cane pulled away the plate, like a mean person, to make sure the lizard wouldn’t get any. "What are you going to do with that?" Cane didn’t hold any regard to the creature. The lizard was only an animal in his eyes, convenient enough to take with them when they were outside.

"I was thinking about it this morning, if the lizard was one of the Seraphim’s mythical creatures, then it must hold some awesome power, don’t you think?" Iris was so excited with her explanation, as she tugged Cane to come with her to the fireplace, while her other hand held the lizard and the parchment. She looked so busy somehow. "And based on what that mysterious man showed me about the lizard’s ability, I did some experiment with it."

Iris then stuffed the parchment into the lizard’s mouth and tossed it to the fire in the fireplace. The lizard would have cried by now if it could.

After that, Iris tugged Cane along with her to go out and found the first brazier. She lit it up and the lizard appeared with the parchment in its mouth.

"See!? The parchment is not burned!"
