Chapter 410: DON’T TOUCH ME!

Still blushing and with Hanna constantly teasing her, Iris reached her bedroom.

Cane’s bedroom was right next to hers and both rooms were connected by a door and a bathroom, but this would be the first time for them to sleep separately and somehow, Iris was a little bit unsettled with the fact. She didn’t like sleeping alone, especially when she could sleep better with Cane close to her. She felt safe with him...

However, Kaz stopped them before Iris could open the door.

"Luna Iris, wait!" Kaz shouted, as he rushed toward them.

Iris caught sight of him from the corner of her eye and turned around, while Hanna frowned because of how loud he was shouting at them.

"What happened?" Hanna asked when Kaz was already in front of them. The old man was slightly panting.

"I forgot to tell you that this is no longer your room, Luna. Come here, I will take you to your new room." Kaz looked polite, but there was nothing polite about what he was saying.

"What do you mean this is no longer her bedroom?" Hanna became defensive on behalf of her missy, while Iris stayed quiet. She stared at the head steward, studying him. "This is the Luna’s bedroom."

Kaz shook his head, looking apologetic, but it was a façade and Iris could sense it.

"You are wrong about that, Hanna," Kaz said. "Come with me, I will show you to your new room, and don’t talk here, there is a pregnant lady inside, she needs to rest."

Iris’ heart sank to read what he said. She felt disrespected not because Sofia occupied her bedroom, since she figured that must be the reason Kaz stopped her, but because of the blatant contempt from him that she could sense.

"Do you think the Luna does not need to rest?" Hanna narrowed her eyes, she became protective of her missy. She knew something like this would happen sooner or later the moment she heard about Sofia and how the people in the Howling Wolf pack still felt uneasy with Iris. Her being away from the pack often and not having time to let them know about herself was not helping in creating a bond between them either. "We have traveled so far, from the Riverside pack to the Howling Wolf pack, in a carriage the entire morning and afternoon, do you think she is not tired?"

Kaz looked a little bit annoyed by Hanna, he huffed scornfully. "This is the Luna’s bedroom. It belongs to someone, who will carry the firstborn of the Alpha, but because it is someone else who is currently pregnant with the alpha’s firstborn, she should stay here, since the Alpha will love to be close to his firstborn. You should understand this luna." Kaz looked at Iris, as he spoke slowly, as if she couldn’t read what he was saying if he talked too fast, which was a degrading act from him. "You. Can’t. Be. Here. Because. It. Is. Not. You. Who. Is. Pregnant. With. The. Alpha’s child."

Hanna was floored by how insolent Kaz was. In the past, she didn’t have much interaction with him, but they were, at least, on amicable terms, yet right now, Hanna straight up hated him.

Kaz frowned because Iris didn’t say anything and then talked to Hanna instead. "Could she understand what I am saying?" He didn’t mean it as an insult, but he was too ignorant to say that the Luna was a dumb person.

"Of course, she can understand!" Hanna snapped at him. She was very furious. "Get that woman out of the bedroom, if the Alpha knows about this, he will be furious with you for treating his mate this way!"

"Lower your voice! Sofia is sleeping right now!" Kaz hissed viciously and then shook his head helplessly. "I know this looks unfair for you, but this is the decorum of our pack. Alpha Cane’s destined mate, Lady Leane, occupied this room when she was pregnant with Alpha Cane’s firstborn. The previous luna and alpha moved to a different room, because lady Leane is carrying the future alpha of the pack. The same thing is happening now. Sofia is carrying the future alpha of the pack, so this is a very important matter."

Kaz mentioned Leane a few times and the importance of the situation, he highlighted the fact that Iris was not pregnant right now.

Because in the past, even when Cane had not gotten the title of the Alpha of the pack, there was no doubt he was the next in line, therefore, when his mate fell pregnant, they occupied these bedrooms that were exclusively for the Alpha and the Luna.

However, here Kaz was, using Sofia’s pregnancy to make Iris step down, since that was what the previous luna did for the woman, who carried the next heir of the pack.

"I hope you can understand this," Kaz said, trying his best to look apologetic, but he only looked impatient to get them away from there.

"We will not go anywhere. You can ask the Alpha first what he thinks about this matter!" Hanna said, intentionally raising her voice so the pregnant woman would wake up, get her sleeping time disturbed. She was confident Alpha Cane would take her missy’s side.

Yet, Kaz scoffed. "Do you think the Alpha will choose her over the woman who is pregnant with his child?" He talked in a low voice condescendingly, thinking Iris wouldn’t understand what he was saying.

"I am tired, Hanna," Iris finally spoke and she could see how Kaz’s eyes lit up.

"Come here, I have prepared a nice room for you, Luna." Kaz would have dragged Iris with him if he could, thankfully, he was still aware of his position.

However, instead of going with Kaz, Iris turned around and started toward Cane’s bedroom.

"No! You can’t go there! That is the Alpha’s bedroom!" Kaz tried to stop Iris, but she swatted his hand away before he could grab her.

"Don’t touch me!" Iris said coldly. Her blue eyes flashed with unconcealed anger.
