IRIS.

“The last one died a month ago,” Delta Liam answered nonchalantly.

I swallowed, and I felt the color drain from my face. I had so many questions, but I wasn’t sure if I had the right to ask.

“Enough, Liam. Don’t terrify her more,” Beta Roman said as he grabbed my elbow. “Let’s go. The Alpha might…”

“Iris…” A cold voice came from inside the house, making the Beta stop midway through his sentence.

I didn’t wait for anyone to instruct me on what to do. I moved on my own and hurried to enter

  • THE SUBSTITUTE LUNA   Chapter 164

    DRACO. “I just want to remind you that any hostility toward my Luna will result in hostility from me and my people.” I said it loudly enough for Adessa and Kael to hear, as well as for my people who were checking their car. Adessa turned around and nodded her head. “Iris is the last person I intend to hurt. And even if you doubt it, I will say it again. I’m here to help. I’m sure she felt lost after finding out her real identity, the same way I was lost when the truth about me came to light. The only difference was, I have my whole family with me…”“Something she was deprived of, because your mother killed them.”“I’m not going to deny that, and my mother won’t be absolving herself of that because she knew what she did and she also wants Iris to understand why she needed to do that.”“I think it’s better we stop this while others can hear us. Let’s talk privately.” It was Kael who interrupted our exchange. “I assume my Beta explained how we will handle this meeting today,” I said, a

    DRACO.“Do not cross my border.” I gave Kael and Adessa a warning before I walked forward, blocking the approaching car from going further. “Watch them,” I instructed Liam, because even though I had a keen sense, whenever Iris was around, my whole focus would always divert to her. It took forever before the car finally stopped, and I didn’t wait for anyone to come out. I was already beside the passenger’s door, opening it to see for myself if she was indeed with him. “Hi…” Iris greeted me, and she smiled so beautifully that all the scolding I had in my head toward her vanished into thin air. So instead, I turned my gaze to my Beta, pressing my forearm at the top of the car. “What did I say about not letting her out of the house?”Roman swallowed, shifting his gaze to Iris before returning my stare. “When she found out you were meeting Alessio and your father, she insisted on coming here. I declined numerous times, but…”“I showed him I can let out vines from my hands…” Iris was st

    DRACO.“But I’m glad that we put him in his place.” He added.“We?” I asked, my brows hiking up.“Don’t try to take the credit alone. I was the first one who mocked him while you stood there like you were about to shit in your pants.” He said it in a serious tone, but I could tell there was a hint of teasing. “If you think trying to joke about this would make me forget what the Royals did to Iris…”“We didn’t do anything.” As expected, he didn’t let me finish my words. “We are still trying to get to the bottom of this, but the chauffeur who drove you to the forest was already dead. He committed suicide before we could interrogate him.”I scoffed. “So you think I would buy that? I’m not stupid, Kael! Your family is fucking capable of killing anyone to stop them from damaging your royal name!”“I’m not going to defend them because the last fucking thing I want you to say is that I’m sucking their asses because you know fairly well sucking ass is the last thing I’d do! I’m here because A

    DRACO. I rolled my shoulders as I discreetly let out a breath when Kael closed his car door and walked toward us. He was approaching alone, but there was still a possibility that Adessa or Adelaine was inside his car. In his position as a prince, I doubted they would allow him to travel without security unless Adessa was with him. But I didn’t dwell on that. At this point, all I wanted was to send my father away or Kael from here. The last thing I wanted was for him to find out about Iris’ identity and the mess I was in that was connected to the Royal. I was about to open my mouth when my father beat me to it. “Alpha Kael! I mean, Prince Kael! It has been a long time since I saw you. You look rather well. It seems the Princess is taking good care of you.” He sounded excited, and his whole face lit up, something I had never seen whenever he spoke to me. Even on the night that he transitioned the Alpha position to me, he didn’t smile or tell me he was proud of me. Maybe if he did, I

    DRACO. Zandro jumped and shifted midair into his wolf, but I didn’t even stir in my place. His wolf would tower over me and could easily take me to the ground or claw me with its paws. And yet, I remained still, not even bothered by his stunt.I was confident because I heard movement behind me, and I was putting my whole trust in my Delta to know what to do. And just as I expected, a shot rang in the air and hit the wolf’s hind leg. He was not able to complete his jump and fell right away with a loud thud, making my father jump back from his position, while I just flashed them a smirk as I smoked my cigar, letting it roll over my tongue.Zandro shifted back to his human form, and two of the men with him ran to help him, but he shoved their hands away as he snapped at me. “You think you’ve won. He might be dead, but let me tell you all the things he did to ruin you…”“Are we seriously going over this? Isn’t this the reason he’s dead?” I scoffed.But he didn’t take my words and continu

    DRACO.“The Royals are our enemies now,” I told him“Alpha Kael has always been your enemy but are you sure you don’t want them on your side?”“Our conversation is going nowhere, Roman.”“I will do my best to keep you and Iris alive but I am just short of being a human compared to those species. But if you can pull Alpha Kael on your side, maybe he can make his Luna vouch for Iris with the Guardians.”“I don’t know what relationship they have with the Guardians, but I’m not taking a risk. Enough of that now. Is there anything I should know that happened while I was away?” “Alpha Kael personally called me and told me you were missing, and that they saw Alessio’s body in the last place where someone saw you alive. At that point, I thought he would say you were dead, too. But he told me, nothing is impossible with you. And as long as there was no body, he would not believe that you were dead.”I didn’t say anything and remained quiet. “Did you kill Alessio?” He repeated. “Yes,” I ans
