The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 897

Chapter 897: JEALOUSY

As far as Cane knew, Iris could only see the spirit of the dead shifter, since she was able to see their wolf spirit, that was why she knew that she was pregnant with twin and their future children would be shifters.

However, Cedric was different. He was not a shifter. He was a knight. He didn’t have wolf spirit and he had not died yet, in that case, how could Iris saw his spirit?

Iris straightened her back when she heard the question, she had been wanting to discuss this with Cane to gain more perspective from him. She loved to discuss thing with him and the feeling was mutual.

"I am not sure about it yet, but I feel different about him." Iris started and Cane raised his brows, staring at his mate with deep eyes.

"You feel different about him." He quoted her. "You feel different about another man and you want to discuss your feeling with your mate? Did I say it right?"

At first, Iris didn’t get it, but then she realized how weird she worded her statement.

"Cane! You knot that’s not what I meant!" Iris was flustered and Cane caressed his cheek.

"I know, I only teased you." But, the look on his face didn’t say he was teasing her earlier. It was not convincing either. "So, what do you feel about him?"

Iris then told him about what she felt. She indeed saw Cedric’s spirit, but it was not the same like when she saw the wolf spirit or the spirit of those shifters, who died and came to look for her.

"How is it different?"

Iris thought about it for a while, because sometime there was time when it was hard to put into words what you felt about something.

"When I saw his spirit, I felt close with him. As if there was a connection between us. I felt his pain and grievances. He didn’t say anything to me, but somehow I can hear his voice in my head." Iris tried to recall that moment when he saw Cedric. "That was the same like when I felt black magic, but this feeling was not an ominous one... felt like a longing," Iris contemplated.

She was too focus on explaining her feeling, thus she didn’t pay attention to her choice of word.

Cane pinched her chin and stared directly into her eyes. "What did you say? Feeling of longing?" he smiled, but even Iris knew this was not a good sign when he smiled like this. "Don’t you think that you have grown so bold now, my luna?"

Iris really wanted to kick herself when she finally realized her mistake and how it sounded. She grimaced. "Cane, you know I didn’t mean it in that way."

"Hm?" He raised his brows. "So, what do you mean when you said that you longed for another man?"

Iris really wrecked her brain to think of a solution to get her out of this predicament. Cane had never shown this side of him before even when Lou kept bothering her, but that was because she showed no interest to the merchant, yet she said it to his face that she longed for another man.

Couldn’t think of a better solution, Iris threw herself at him, she leaned over and kissed him.

"Don’t be angry," Iris said, trying to explain herself, but when Cane was about to say something, she would kiss him again to silence him, so she would have a chance to speak. This was not the first time she used this wicked method. "What I meant is... I felt like I have known him for long. Someone that I knew from the past. The longing feeling that I felt was not a woman to man." Iris shook her head, hastily explaining her innocent.

Hearing that, Cane narrowed his eyes. "Now, I just realized one thing..."

"Wh- what?" Iris stuttered. She straddled him now, while Cane put his hand on both her hips to steady her, just in case the carriage was unstable and she would hurt herself. Even when he was being petty like this, her safety was still priority.

But right now, Cane felt what upset her the most in the past. _{freewebnøvel.com}
