Iris:
I felt my throat closing when Kash repeated himself.
"Are these my children?" he yelled.
My children got so scared they rushed forward and hugged my legs again. At this point, I could only glare at him, wanting to yell or scream to somehow divert his attention, but he was fixated on them. Even Walkin looked panicked.
"Alpha King Kash, what are you doing here?"
Thankfully, my mother rushed out, and I gathered enough courage to push my kids behind me. Kash's face stayed rigid, but Walkin was the one who snapped out of his daze and stepped forward to greet my mother with a nod.
"Actually, Kash came here to make amends and to let Iris know that he'll be expecting her in the office tomorrow morning," Walkin explained, reaching back to grab Kash's arm and squeeze it tightly, a silent warning not to cause a scene in front of my mother.
