The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232: THE SIGHT OF HER

After midnight passed and the party became so wild, where people leaned more toward their animal’s instinct and those men from the royal family and the prestigious families started to hunt down women for pleasure, Cane pulled Iris back to their bedroom.

"Change your dress," Cane said, as he rummaged through the wardrobe, in which Hanna had stored their belongings there, and found the clothes that he was looking for.

What Cane gave her were a warm shirt and a pair of pants, the kind of clothes that she would wear when she was horse riding. The Alpha also started to undress himself. He threw the formal robes away, as if he couldn’t bother with them, he was impatient to get out of such clothes.

Seeing that, Iris avoided the sight, she blushed and then went to the bathroom to change her dress into the clothes that Cane gave to her.

However, the problem was; the kind of dress she was wearing needed someone else to help her untie the cord behind her back, which she couldn’t reach by herself.

"Are you done?" Cane knocked on the door after he waited for ten minutes and she still had not come out. They needed to leave now.

His original plan was to leave Iris in their bedroom, while he would sneak out to take care of his business, but he couldn’t do that anymore after the appearance of the strange dark wisp that came out from his palms.

It was only Iris, who knew about this and he didn’t intend to let anyone else learn such a thing about him, not even his beta and gamma, at least not now.

Therefore, he needed Iris to be close to him. It was like something that was given in this situation. There was no proof that she was the reason the dark wisp disappeared, but ever since she could tame the lycan, subconsciously, Cane believed she might have the same effect on some particular matters.

Iris alone was a mystery. How could she do that?

"Iris?" Cane knocked again because there was no answer from inside, but soon after the door was opened, Iris’ face appeared. She looked anxious and surprised to see him.

However, she was still in her party clothes.

"I think, I need help..." she said timidly. She didn’t know where Cane wanted to take her, but she knew that he was in a hurry and she couldn’t keep him waiting any longer.

Cane frowned, but Iris opened the door wider and turned around to show her back to him.

"I can’t untie it," she said in a small voice, as she gathered her long, auburn hair to her left shoulder, showing her neck and he could see how his mark peeked through the laced collar.

Cane stopped himself from wandering his eyes on his mark and focused on the complicated tangled cord on the back of her dress. He frowned.
