The last time Iris saw Redmond was a week before the Blue Moon pack lost the battle against the Howling Wolf pack led by Cane.
Redmond had told her father that they needed to evacuate and ask for more help from the king, but her father was too arrogant to listen to him. He didn't actually think a former slave like Cane could gather so much power within half a year to take down his pack.
But then, reality hit him hard as he turned out to be hopelessly wrong while his arrogance only made him pay a huge price.
Iris tried to think of a reason for Redmond wanting to pledge his loyalty to her when they didn't even know each other so well. It would be less complicated if he bowed to Cane and acknowledged him as the new alpha.
