Chapter 441: HER BODY FELT SO HOT

Chapter 441: HER BODY FELT SO HOT

In a split second, the atmosphere turned cold and tension filled the air. Jace immediately realized how inappropriate it might have sounded, though he knew Ethan didn’t mean it in the literal sense.

On the other hand, Ethan was also quick to realize his slip of tongue, as he looked at Cane, mortified. "No! No! No! I didn’t mean it that way!" He waved his hands vigorously to emphasize what he said. "I didn’t mean it in a literal sense! I mean it figuratively! I will not do that, it’s only in my mind!"

Cane’s eyes dimmed even more. "So, in your mind, you want to kiss my mate?"

"No! No! No!" Ethan was terrified, because he knew it sounded even worse now. "No, I will not dare!" He felt like he was going to cry now. Why couldn’t he think first before running his mouth?!

Meanwhile, Jace really wanted to kick his ass, regardless of whatever came out of his mouth, it only sounded like he was digging his own grave deeper.

"Cane, you know that’s not what he meant..." Jace interrupted and elbowed Ethan to stop himself from blabbering more nonsense. "We are here to inform you that our people have spotted the King’s entourage and he will arrive within an hour."

"Prepare everything," Cane said before slamming the door shut. It was a typical order that he would give them.

Outside of the door, Jace glared at Ethan. "Are you trying to get yourself killed or what?"

The Gamma grimaced and mumbled something under his breath, but then when he lifted his head back, he looked cheerful again. "At least, we got him back! Everything will be fine!" He clapped his hands happily, but then he sighed in depression when he remembered what happened to Will.

He would talk with Cane about him when he had time, also about Aria’s missing dead body and so many other things. Jace also had a lot of things to report to the Alpha.

But, right now, they needed to focus on the arrival of the King.

On the other hand, Cane went inside the room again and found Iris was having trouble taming her hair. He went to her and helped her as usual.

He did that very naturally, as if it was his second nature to tame her curly auburn hair, while she let him do that for her. His touch was gentle, yet firm.

"The King will arrive in an hour," Cane said, as he braided her hair and styled it.

"Okay," Iris replied in a small voice.

There were a lot of things she wanted to ask and there were many issues that were long overdue for them to discuss, but now was not the right time to talk about any of that, since they had another matter to take care of.

They didn’t even have time to talk about the problem with the lycan or how Cane could get his consciousness back. And, also about last night...

The tips of Iris’ ears turned red and her face flushed crimson in no time. Seeing her like that, Cane knew what was in her mind and this soft smile appeared on the corners of his lips. He liked it when he was able to read her easily.

"Done," Cane said. He started a small braid at the front of her head and braided her hair around like a bandana, while he pulled up the rest of her hair into a low ponytail and used the braided hair to cover the tie. It was simple, but Iris liked it.

"Thank you," Iris said, as she lowered her head and murmured. "I- I will change my dress."

Iris stood up to walk away from Cane, but all of a sudden, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back, her back flush with his sturdy chest before he buried his nose in the crook of her neck, breathing heavily.

Cane hugged her from behind and Iris could see their reflection in the mirror. She saw how big the Alpha was. His body could literally swallow hers, as he wrapped his muscled arms around her chest and waist.

"Cane?" Iris called him softly. She was afraid she lost him again, since Cane was not usually like this. She could feel Cane saying something against her shoulder, but she didn’t have any idea what he was talking about. "Cane, are you saying something? I can’t get it..." Iris caressed his tensed arm around her chest lightly and this made his body stiffen. "Cane, are you okay?"

But, instead of answering her question, Cane nuzzled her neck and bit on her skin lightly. He then cupped her breast, which made Iris gasp in surprise. She stopped caressing his arm, but he didn’t stop what he was doing. She could feel his sharp teeth grazing on her skin and his hardness pressing into her back, which made Iris blush.

However, a second later, Cane turned her body around and rested his forehead against hers, as he held her shoulders firmly, his breathing heavy.

"Cane?" Iris whispered, she felt her body was a little bit hot because of Cane’s abrupt intimate actions.

"Give me a moment," Cane said with his eyes still closed and a deep furrow between his brows, as if he was having this internal fight within himself.

Iris didn’t dare to move, even though she didn’t catch what Cane was saying, as she waited for him to calm down a bit first.

She could feel how hot he was, his hands on her shoulders seared her skin and she didn’t realize how thick the sexual tension between them was, until Cane moved away from her and left a hollow in her heart and an emptiness between her legs.

Iris was surprised that she had this kind of thought. It was so embarrassing and thankfully, Cane couldn’t read her mind. She would have died right there and then if he could place her improper thoughts. She realized she was lusting for his touch. This was a strange feeling for Iris, but she wanted him.

"Go and change your dress," Cane said, as he strengthened his back, letting her go.

If only Iris could hear him, she would know how heavy and dark his voice was and how he was so reluctant to loosen his grip on her shoulders. His veins bulged, as he suppressed his desire for her.

For Cane, to be able to hold himself back this far when he was aroused was an achievement, knowing his condition. Something snapped in him when he lost his control over the lycan.

And before long, Cane had turned around and went to the bathroom to dip his body in the bathtub, spilling the water over the edges. His head throbbed, so did the lower part of his body. He closed his eyes and remembered the smell of her scent. The softness of her skin and how aroused she was.

Yes, Cane knew it. He could smell her scent becoming sweeter. It became even more intoxicating for him recently, as if she was a special drug that was made exclusively for him. He liked it when she called his name in that trembling voice of hers and knew how much she also wanted him.

"Damn it," Cane cursed softly under his breath, as he tried to calm himself down. It was hard, but he knew it was possible.

Something shifted inside him, as he realized, controlling his desires was equally difficult when he was trying to take control of his consciousness back from the lycan, but he did it in the end, at the critical moment, so he could do this too.

Cane frowned deeply, his mind kept replaying her voice, her face and everything about her, and it didn’t help at all.

But then, he heard the sound of a door cracking open and an unwelcomed scent hit his senses. The Alpha opened his eyes and glared at the intruder with so much hostility.

In the adjoining door, Cane could see Sofia standing not too far from him with the door framing her pregnant figure, staring at him with those surprised, puffy eyes, as if she had been crying for hours.

It was still too early for her to wake up and usually, she would be awake close to lunch and sleep right after dinner. Sometimes, she would have her dinner earlier.

Yet, the problem was; Sofia didn’t even sleep at all after she witnessed how the Alpha pleasured the Luna. The sight of them last night got engraved deeply in her memories and she couldn’t shake it off. She wished she was the one who got such attention from the Alpha.

It was a pity that Sofia could only see Cane’s back, because he was not facing her last night, but she swore that the Luna saw her. Their eyes met and she could see the animosity in her blue eyes, which made her take a step back.

She forced herself to get away from there when she heard how the Luna moaned in pleasure and the Alpha swallowed her cries, as the room filled with the smell of sex. Sofia couldn’t take that.

She was pregnant with his child, but why was it that barren woman who got his attention?

However, right now, Sofia finally met Cane in the bathroom, where he was naked inside the bathtub and she could see his broad chest that made her swallow so hard. She stared at his skin, where one could see some of the wounds from his slavery days that left some scars, but somehow, it only added to his charm.

Her body felt so hot.
