Cane really didn't like the way Laluna hugged him. She reminded him of his destined mate, yes, but obviously she was not Leane and he wouldn't think the similarity was more than the fact that the Princess was currently pregnant.
Yet, he couldn't push her away like he wanted to, even so he tried to pry herself off him as unharmingly as possible.
"We need to get out of here," Cane said lightly, as he patted her shoulder to get her attention, a habit that he developed because of Iris, and slightly distanced himself, because he felt his skin burn with this proximity. He hated so much to be touched so intimately by someone that was not familiar to him.
Wiping her tears, Laluna let him go and nodded.
