The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 768

Chapter 768: AND THE ROOM BECAME QUIET

Ania was told by Celia that the luna was sad, so she wanted to come and cheer her. She brought a rabbit with her. This was the same rabbit that they saw a year ago, she, Ethan, Hanna and luna Iris watched the rabbit gave birth to bunny, so Ania thought, she could cheer the luna up with this.

However, Eron didn’t let her in.

"Why?" Ania asked, she looked crestfallen because she was denied. She had been wanting to come closer to the luna, but her father told her the time was not right and she would only bother her.

Eron crouched down in front of Ania. He caressed her head, while smiling softly to the little girl. "Luna Iris is sleeping right now. She needs to rest because she is very tired."

"But, father said, alpha will go out of the pack tonight with luna. I will not be able to see her then." Ania pursed her lips. The rabbit with her was already big, she needed to carry it with both of her arms. "I want to show the rabbit. Please..."

Eron looked around to his fellow warriors, but they avoided his eyes, because they didn’t have a heart to reject her plea, leaving Eron to be the bad guy here, especially when Ania was about to cry. He scratched his head and knocked on the door softly.

Amee and Hanna were inside, Eron would let them decided in this matter. He actually passed the decision to them.

It was Amee, who opened the door and Ania immediately came to her. "Can I see the luna please? I want to show the rabbit to her to cheer her up." She tried to raise her white rabbit, showing the helpless animal to Amee. Ania had spent a lot of effort to catch one because the animal ran away because of the crows.

"But, luna Iris is sleeping now." Amee looked apologetic.

"But, you are going to go tonight." Ania wouldn’t be able to see the luna for a long time after that, because they used to go for months.

When they were not sure what to do, Cane came and actually gave the permission. "You and Hanna can leave," Cane said.

Ania became timid when he saw the alpha, because he looked very domineering and a little girl like Ania felt intimidated by his presence.

However, the alpha was actually pretty nice because he allowed her to enter the room and find the luna was sleeping on the bed.

"Don’t wake her up," Cane said, he went to the bathroom to clean himself, leaving Ania and her rabbit with Iris, while Amee and Hanna waited outside.

Ania obliged, now she was thinking how to cheer the luna up when she was not allowed to wake her up. In the end, the little girl sat on the floor with her rabbit on her lap, staring at Iris’s sleeping face.

"She is so pretty, isn’t she?" Ania talked to her rabbit in whispery voice.

Probably because Iris felt there was someone staring at her, or maybe she was woken up by her nightmare, her eyelids fluttered and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was the little girl with her white rabbit.

"Luna!" Ania called her joyfully. "Look! I bring a white rabbit for you!" Ania raised her rabbit to her. "Do you want to pat it."

Iris didn’t move from her position, but her eyes fixed on the white rabbit.

"Luna, do you remember, this is the bunny that we saw a year ago, we watched the rabbit gave birth and this is that tiny bunny. It’s big already, right?" Ania was excited to remind Iris about that moment. "When it was born, there is no fur, we thought it’s a rat instead, but now the fur is very thick, touch it."

Ania placed the rabbit on the bed and made Iris touched the rabbit fur.

"It’s soft, right?" Ania kept recalling the moment, she had a good memory.

Hearing her, Iris remembered about this rabbit. At that time she thought; It’s a new life.

There would always be a new life that you could cherish. The dead would remain the same, but the living needed to strive for themselves and those they cherished.

Meanwhile, Cane stood behind the bathroom door, listening to Ania’s jabbering, but there was no reply from Iris.

He let Ania to talk with her, until he finished to clean himself up and tell the little girl it’s time to say goodbye.

"Bye, luna Iris!" Ania waved her hands, while Iris was in sitting position now with the white rabbit in her lap, she caressed its soft fur. "Thank you alpha, Cane."

Cane caressed her head and told Otis to take her back to Stone. He then returned to the room and crouched down in front of Iris. "I will change your bandage, okay? After that, I will take you for a long walk, okay?"

Iris didn’t respond, but she looked calm, her focus was on the rabbit. With that, Cane took new bandage and medicine that Grace had prepared for her. The wound on her thigh was pretty deep, because Cane didn’t react in time. He blamed himself for that.
