The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0022

After school, I drop Jason off and head home. When I walk in, Dad looks at me and gives me a side smile, “What? No flowers?”

The look on my face must have been more serious than I anticipated because his smile drops. “Honey?”

I walk over to the living room and sit on the couch. I take a deep breath and tell dad about the lunch that was ordered for me. He whistles low, looking at me intently. “That could be taken a couple of different ways Cara.”

I silently hand him the card. He reads it and then stares at it for a second like I did. “Okay, only one way to take that. What does Artemis say? I’m assuming she was pleased?”

“Oh yeah, she was thrilled to be given the adoration she thinks she deserves.” I say laughing.

I see Donovan push forward as Dad’s green eyes go brighter. “She’s a Guardian and my pup. Of course she deserves it. Any male would be lucky to have her as a mate. This is the type of homage that is due a Guardian and my daughter.” Donovan’s gravelly voice states.

Dad forces Donovan back and we give each other a look. Sometimes our wolves act a bit….arrogant. “So, have you figured out who it is yet?” Dad changes the subject.

“No clue dad. Not one. I did rule out most of the guys in training this morning, mostly because they were giving me such a hard time about the flowers.”

“Could it be Alpha Liam?” he asks. He knows that Liam and I have been flirting. and spending some time together but I hadn’t mentioned Friday night’s chat. with him. I still wasn’t completely sure how I felt about it.

“I don’t think so. Plus he texted me last night after hearing about the flowers. I’m pretty confident it’s not him.”

“Oh! And, it was the owner of Ethereal that brought in my food today.” Dad whistles again. He looks thoughtful for a moment, then looks back at me. “It could be Alpha Rik.

I laugh out loud, bending over and holding my stomach. “Dad, I hate to break it to you, but Alpha Rik has no clue who I am.”
