IS SHE A RUNT TO BEGIN WITH?

Cane was on alert when he saw the sudden change in her expression. "What did you see?" He was clueless as to what Iris was going to say.

Iris bit her lips and stopped walking again. "The wisp."

"Wisp?" Cane instinctively glanced at his hands, thinking it appeared again, but there was nothing. It would ruin a lot of things if it appeared now under hundreds to thousands of watchful eyes. Deep down, he had this belief; as long as he was with her, the dark wisp would never appear. "What do you mean by the wisp?"

"I… I was… he was… he was touching me when I saw it…" Her tongue failed her when this disgusting feeling rushed back to her mind as she tried to recall that particular moment, when she revived the moment she wanted to forget the most.
