MORE INFORMATION (2)

Rei looked offended when Iris talked in a bad light about Na. "Don't talk badly about her, Iris, because you will not like what you are going to hear now you are able to do so."

Iris ignored that. His voice was not pleasant to hear, if he was going to talk, it would be better if he talked about something more important, more so, she was already on edge with the loud sound from the waterfall. 

"Should I thank you?" Iris asked sarcastically. She gritted her teeth. "What the use of you? Are you here to protect me because of Na? Because some part of Na is within me?"

Rei answered without hesitation. "Yes."

Iris saw red when he admitted that. Her emotions were all over the places now. There were so many things that happened during this short period of time and she didn't have a moment to wrap her head around this newly found information, everything went so fast. 

"And where are you when I was abused when I was a child, don't you care whether I died or not?" Iris gritted her teeth, she balled her fists tightly, she wished this man was a shifter, so she could squeeze his spirit, maybe by then, he could understand how ridiculous his statement was. 

Now Iris also realized that the spirit could only be seen on shifter. 

"Iris, I don't even know your existence until we meet in the black market," Rei admitted that. "Your mother has been missing for decades."

"My mother? Do you know my mother?" Iris narrowed her eyes. She looked conflicted. "How do you know my mother? Did my mother know about you too?"

Rei clamped his mouth and Iris understood this gesture, since many people around her used to do that whenever they didn't want to give an answer. 

"Where did you meet my mother?" Iris was irritated with his silence. "Answer me!" Iris screamed at him, she wanted to approach him and shook his body, so he could spill the answer she wanted to hear. 

Now, he could say something useful, why he decided not to talk?

"I will answer that if you come with me. Leave this continent and I will let you know everything that you need to know." Rei extended his hand. "I will answer all of your question and will not hide anything from you."

Leaving the pack? 

That was what she wanted until a few days ago when she felt unwelcomed by the whole member of the Howling Wolf pack and how jealous she was to Sofia when they accepted her readily. Kaz was even willing to incur Cane's wrath just to defend Sofia. 

Seeing how conflicted Iris was, Rei added. "I know what happened with that pregnant woman and how the pack member dislike you, even after what you have done for them. Now, you have the choice to leave them all behind. There is nothing good for you to stay. Come with me, Iris. I will show you the purpose of your life."

But, leaving the pack meant, she had to leave everything behind? All people that she knew… those warriors, who had been warmed up with her, Hanna… Cane…

"No, thanks. Hanna always said not to go with stranger," Iris replied. She took a step back. 

Hearing that, Rei was speechless. "You are always as stubborn as ever."

"You don't know me, don't talk to me as if you have known me for so long." This irritated Iris, because she knew what Rei saw from her was Na. This man looked past her and only saw the first Serafim in her. 

"Believe me, I know you." Rei still could feel the familiarity between Iris and Na, and this small thing always be his comfort. He lost it over more than two decades and now he finally found it again. He was not going to lost her. "You make the mistake to let the lycan entered your life, don't make the same mistake again now. You need to be away from him."

"You are not the one, who decided."

"Iris, if you follow him, you are able to see by now, what kind of bloody path that alpha will walk through. You shouldn't walk the same path as him."

"Why not? Those people deserved to die!" Iris hated it when he talked bad about Cane, probably the feeling was mutual when she did that with Na. 

"See? You can see how much that lycan has changed you. You shouldn't feel such negative emotions, your hatred only makes Decratic stronger. This, only one reason why you shouldn't be with the lycan. He brought nothing for you, but calamity. Not only for you, but to this world too."

"And you brought nothing for me, but a burden." Iris threw him a look. "If I recall this is our third time to meet with each other, but you already told me what to do with my life. I am not going with you. Cane is my mate, I stay with him."

"You don't have any idea what will come, Iris." Rei shook his head. 

"It has been five hundred years, why are you still alive?" Iris asked, his voice was clear and all her timidness disappeared. She approached this situation calmly. Somehow, she knew Cane or the lycan would look for her. She needed to stall time, until they could find her. 

Rei looked at Na right in the eyes, he didn't answer her question. 

"What is it? Are you using dark magic? Because I can feel traces of it." Iris looked him up and down, making the man felt uncomfortable. "Am I right? You did use dark magic." 

Right at that time, both of them could hear an angry roar in the distance and a strong feel or relief washed over Iris when she saw the lycan emerged from the darkness. The beast was fuming, as he took a stance in front of her, ready to tear this man apart.  0

"Long time no see, Lu," Rei greeted him.
