The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0017

No one has ever done something like that for me. I’ve been wracking my brain to figure out who it could be, but honestly, the opportunities are nearly endless.

“Oh? This ol‘ thing?” I give him my best fake surprised look, then smile. “They are flowers. Apparently, I have a secret admirer.” I look at the flowers again.

I look at him confused. “The color of the rose means something?”

“Yep and white means something like loyalty and purity.”

“Well, my admirer knows I’m a Guardian, so the loyalty fits. Not sure how many people know I’m ‘pure‘ but maybe this person is hoping?” I wiggle my eyebrows at my dad and we both laugh.

“Go get dressed for training, Car. I’ll meet you outside.”
