446: BARE FEELING

BARE FEELING

Iris couldn't believe Cane would say something like that to her. She was well aware that Cane was really good with his words, but he was using it to her now and she couldn't help, but turned so red, while the alpha stared at his mate with fascination in his dark eyes. 

"I thought you invited another man to our bedroom to bar the door," Cane said in dark voice and this made Iris stunned when he put it in that way. 

"No! What are you trying to imply? Joel is just a boy!" Iris became a little bit panic because she was afraid Cane would misunderstand the situation. She didn't want to put Joel into trouble, but more so, what Cane implied was a serious accusation. 

However, Cane simply nibbled on her lip before he lifted his head to see the confusion and anxiousness in her blue eyes. "I know," he said simply. "But, people who doesn't like you and the enemy will not care about such detail. Be careful."

Right now, with the king was here and his people roamed around their pack, they couldn't be sure what kind of word that would reach the king and how it would be used against them, thus they needed to be extra wary with their action. 

For Iris and the people around them, what she did was an innocent act, but from outsider perspective and those people, who wanted to take them down, a luna, inviting one of the warriors into her chamber without the alpha was there, it could be an action of adultery. It was extremely inappropriate, in most case, the woman would be killed on the spot by their man. 

Probably, Joel didn't think about that too, since the young warrior only thought of how to help the luna, but such innocent action could cost them more than they could imagine. 

Iris only realized it when Cane mentioned it. She turned pale. 

"I am sorry, I didn't think twice… I really didn't mean it in that way." Iris shook her head vigorously. 

"I know," Cane said in reassuring tone, as he massaged the back of her neck to ease her tensed body. "Don't do it again."

Iris nodded. "I am sorry."

Cane said nothing, he only stared at her, which made Iris became even more confused because he didn't give her any reaction. Was he still angry with her? Did he really upset because of that? Was he thinking about punishment? Or maybe he thought of how stupid of mate he had.

This was a critical time and the king only arrived for half a day and here Iris was, making a big mistake that would put her into a scandalous situation. 

"C- Cane?" Iris was afraid of what he was thinking at this moment. "What are you thinking? Why don't you say something? I am sorry."

Cane didn't answer that immediately, but then he talked in small voice, almost like a whisper. "I really want to taste your sorry…"

"What?" Iris was not sure that she read his words right, but Cane had brushed his thumb against the bottom of her lip, as his eyes turned darker. His body felt so hot against her, as if she was being hugged by fire. "Cane, what is it?" She didn't realize it, but she was whispering too. 

"Iris, I want to make sure of something…" Cane looked hesitated, he frowned slightly. 

"What?" The tension in this room felt so weird, as if it reflected the intense of Cane's current emotion. 

Cane still looked hesitated when he finally spoke again. "I want to make sure of this. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me to stop, understood?"

"What are you going to do?" Iris was a little bit worried because Cane looked very serious. His gaze was so sharp and his eyes looked like he was going to go feral. 

However, when he leaned over and started to capture her lips, his kiss was so gentle. He ran his tongue on her lips, nudged her to open her mouth and when she did, Cane bent over slightly and lifted her up by her thighs, which made Iris squalled and out of instinct, she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, while he put his arms under her bottom to support her body. 

Iris lifted her head and stared at Cane, who was staring back at her with those hooded eyes. She understood what he meant and deep down knew what he wanted to make sure of. 

"Not comfortable?" Cane asked and Iris blushed, as she knew where it would go, but if she stopped him now, probably he would hold himself back again and there would be no progress whatsoever between the two of them. 

But then, Did Iris really want him to stop?

Instead of replying to the question, Iris leaned over and this time, it was her, who kissed him first. Clumsily, she pried open his lips and sucked on his tongue, which made Cane grunted and pulled his head back. 

Iris looked shock when he pulled away from her, thinking she made a mistake and wrongly interpreted his words. 

However, Cane kissed her arm beside his head and looked at her again. "Easy…"

He wanted to take thing slowly. It was not that he disliked what Iris did to him, but he didn't think his self control would be able to handle that and the last thing he wanted was to give her pain. 

Iris blushed, she turned so red and looked mortified by her own action, but Cane simply carried her over to the bed and laid her down gently there. 

"Tell me if you feel uncomfortable, understood?" Cane repeated what he said more sternly now and Iris nodded, she was still blushing. 

Cane kissed the tip of her nose and down to her lips. She tasted heavenly. He felt like he was drinking a fine wine and he was drunk with the taste of it. The way she moaned, drove him crazy, as he nibbled on her lips, sucked on her tongue. He wanted more of her, while she ran her fingers through his hair and pulled lightly.  1

And when Cane could smell her arousal, he pulled away abruptly. He looked mortified, it was not that he didn't want her, no, it was the opposite, he wanted her so badly, but he didn't think he could handle it. 

However, Iris didn't let him go, she caressed his cheeks and spoke softly. "You will not hurt me, Cane. You said you will not hurt me."

"And you believe that?"

"Yes."

There was no doubt in her voice. Iris knew, if he backed down now, he would always back down in the future. He didn't believe himself to do it, but Iris did. 

But then, if he ended up hurting her, so what? Iris had gone through something more horrendous than this, what the worst thing could possible to happen? Cane had lost control with her before and that was not the most horrifying moment for her. More so, she was willing. 

The first two times she did it with Cane, it was something he did to her out of revenge and the next time it happened, it was because of her heat and she pleaded for him to ease the pain, though in the end he gave her more pain, because he couldn't control himself and because that was how the way he was. 

However right now, a lot of things had happened and many things had changed, their relationship, situation, their feeling…

So many things had turned around upside down, which brought them to this moment. 

And this time, it was not about revenge or lust, or simply to fulfill their carnal desire, but it was about how they wanted to put down the last barrier between them, the feeling of completely connected with each other. 

"It's okay, Cane…" Iris said, staring at his feral gaze, as she caressed his hair. "I want you too." 

This time, Iris didn't blush, she didn't shy to say what she felt about him, what she was feeling at this moment. 

Cane wanted her, so did she. 

The sunlight filtered through the window and the warmth engulfed their body, brought serenity in the air, which helped Cane to calm down a bit, yet he didn't dare to move, thus it was Iris, who made the first move. 

She propped her body with her elbowed, so she was in half sitting position, while her other hand was put behind Cane's neck, as she pulled him closer to her and kiss his lips. 

She didn't do what she did earlier, but she let him to take the lead and when Cane started to bite her lip lightly, Iris matched his movement, until he became a little bit relax and laid her down to the bed again. 

Iris didn't know how to start this, thus she took his hand and put it over her chest, she wanted him to touch her, she let him know that it was okay to touch her. 

If she was sober enough and she was in her timid self, or maybe when all of this over, she would kick herself internally for being so raunchy. 

Iris didn't even now, she had this side of her. 

But right now, Iris only wanted Cane to know that it was okay to touch her. She didn't want him to touch any other woman, but her. She wanted him to do this only to her. 

She wanted him to feel comfortable and bare only with her.
