HAVE HER OWN FAMILY
Grumbling, Haco left the two of them alone inside the bedroom, at the very least, the lycan would oblige Iris and there was nothing to be worried about.
Meanwhile, he would find someone to inform the beta that the alpha was already with Iris. Jace would understand what was that meant.
Inside the bedroom, Iris tried to push Lu away from kissing her face. He looked ecstatic for some reason. He didn't cause trouble, right? That was all Iris was concern about because she didn't want to add more trouble, since they had more than enough and without Cane here, it would only complicate things.
"Where have you been?" Iris asked sternly, she looked at the lycan's eyes, those eyes were the same color like Cane's, but still, Iris couldn't feel the same familiarity when she stared at him at this moment.
"I went to meet that healer!" Lu was elated and then pulled out something from his pocket. It was two small bottles, which he waved it in front of Iris. "Look! Cane ordered the healer to make the concoction with the water magic stone for his fertility issue. He also ordered her to make one bottle for you, so you can nurse your health!"
"You went to see Grace?!" Iris was shocked, she was not sure whether the news about Lu went to see Grace was way more shocking than the fact he got the concoction of Cane's fertility issue from her.
Iris knew Cane needed the water magic stone to fix his problem, but she was clueless that he had ordered something like that to Grace, since Cane had never even mentioned anything about it.
"Yes!" Lu nudged the small bottle that contained with blue liquid toward Iris. "Come! Drink this! Let's try whether it will work or not!" he looked like a child, who was asking Iris to play with him. He looked so enthusiast for her to drink the concoction.
However, Iris had other worries and she had even more question that she needed Lu to answer it.
"Lu!" Iris snatched the bottle from her face, but she didn't drink it immediately just like how Lu wanted her to do. "Tell me, what you were talking about with Grace? Tell me every detail of it!"
Iris's heart pounded against her chest, she couldn't imagine if Grace found something odd about Cane, but then Grace already learned about the lycan, but she was not sure how she would take this news if she knew the alpha was actually not Cane.
She and Jace had agreed not to let anyone else to know about this and thankfully, Oliver had been entertaining alpha Dristan and Sir Elijah at this moment, though the two of them kept asking about Cane's absent.
"I didn't hurt her."
"Okay." That was a relief. "And then what the two of you were talking about."
Lu kept staring at the bottle in Iris's hand, pouting.
"Lu?" Iris softened her voice and then caressed his head, which made him purred against her touch and started to talk about every single detail of the conversation between him and Grace, thankfully, he had rather a good memory.
"… She stuttered when she mentioned about it, so I finished her sentence with 'When I fuck her?' and after that, I left. That's all. I didn't do anything at all." Lu frowned when Iris stopped running her fingers through his hair.
"Wh- what did you say?" Iris could feel the heat from her face and she really wanted to smack this lycan for saying such thing to Grace. But, of course, that was only in her mind because the embarrassment was so unbearable.
"Said what?" Lu tilted his head, staring at Iris innocently, as if he didn't understand what she meant.
"Y- you said…" Iris couldn't even say the words. She really wanted to cry.
Lu frowned even more and then he had this moment when finally he caught what she wanted to say. "You mean when I said 'when I fuck her'?"
"Lu!"
Lu still had this innocent expression on his face when he explained it to Iris. "But, I was right. What is wrong with that word? You don't allow me to use this people in the pack for sacrifice, thus the only thing I can think of is this." He waved the other bottle in his hand to her face and this really irritated Lu.
"Lu, be serious, please!" Iris was thinking to avoid Grace for a while now and since what Lu said couldn't be taken back again, she would move on with her next question.
"I am very serious with you." Lu sat with his legs crossed. He looked like a child, who was being reprimanded. He was not sure why Iris was angry at him when he didn't do anything bad? It was so hard to please her.
Iris closed her eyes and calmed herself down, trying to put in the back of her mind about what Lu said to Grace so blatantly and when she opened them, she looked a little bit in control with her emotions.
"Lu, can you explain to me about the things you told Haco? About me being a Serafim? How can you say that?" Iris asked him calmly, hoping he wouldn't seal his lips this time. "Lu?"
"You are the Serafim, how can you not know about that?" Lu stopped his childish act and actually looked a little bit serious right now, which made Iris relief, because it meant they could communicate in this matter.
"I don't know, Lu. Seriously, I don't." Iris shook her head. "The idea is so wild. I can't even thing about the possibility."
"There is no possibility. It's the truth." Lu then leaned over and stole a peck on Iris's lips, which made her upset.
"Lu!"0
"Okay, I will behave," he said sullenly and the sight melted Iris's heart.
She took a deep breath before she spoke again with this unpredictable lycan. "Please, can we talk seriously now?"
"No kissing?"
"No kissing."
"So boring."
"Lu, I am very serious right now."
"Okay," Lu said in defeated tone, but he cheered up a bit when Iris started to caress his head, which reminded Iris how the lycan liked it when she caressed his soft fur every new moon, so did Cane.
"Lu, you must know about this, but I can hear you howling every new moon, while you know… I am deaf." Iris had been wanting to ask about this first before she jumped to the question about the Serafim. "How it happened?"
Lu lifted his head and then looked at Iris intensely. He didn't say anything and Iris started to wonder, whether he would even answer this or not.
But then Lu spoke very softly, though Iris wouldn't know how tender his voice right now. "Because my soul called for yours."
"How's that happened?" Iris knew there was an explanation for that, but this answer only added more question to her already long list.
"You were my mate." But then Lu corrected it. "You are my mate. Our souls call for each other."
Iris bit her lips, trying to arrange the next question in her mind. "How is the relationship between you and the Serafim? What happened to both of you?"
Hearing that, Lu's soft gaze turned cold, as he scoffed. "She was my mate, but I am her first complication as a Serafim."
"What do you mean with that?" Iris narrowed her eyes, but at this point, Lu didn't want to talk about it anymore, his jaw thickened and he even didn't want to look at Iris.
However, Iris couldn't stop now. She wanted to dig more information, since the lycan was here and he knew a lot of things, he could answer many of the questions she and Haco had. "What do you mean that the first Serafim was the cause of your demise? Lu?"
Iris finally leaned over and pecked his cheek, which made the lycan looked at her in disbelieve.
"You said no kiss!" He said in accusation tone, while Iris was at lost.
"I will give you kiss if you answer my question," Iris tried to bargain, she felt so embarrassed to even suggest this. If it was really Cane, she would never dare to say anything like that.
"Five kisses for one question? And then we ended it with sex?"
"Lu! You push too far!"
"Do we have a deal?" Lu asked her, excited.
"Why do you keep talking about sex?" Iris felt her face was burning up and the tip of her ears turned red. Why it was the only thing in his mind? This lycan seemed like he had nothing in his mind, but how to impregnant her.
It was not that, Iris didn't want to carry Cane's child, but they were not in the situation, where they could talk about this casually, there were a lot of things at stake here.
"Because only then you can get pregnant," Lu said in a matter of fact tone. He looked unfazed when he talked about this kind of thing, as if it was such a normal topic.
"Why do you very obsess to have a child?" Iris narrowed her eyes. It was not the sex that he wanted, but he was adamant to have a child with her.
Lu stared at Iris deeply and this time, he extended his hand to caress her earlobe, which made Iris squirmed and swatted his hand away.
Lu smiled. "Because you were the one, who wanted to have a child. You want to be normal and have your own family."
