The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0117

I can’t believe I freaked out. Everything was fine and then it was like it all came flooding back. The fear, the pain, and I got lost in the memory. Rik was great, helping me get centered. But it makes me worry. What will happen when the time comes and I do find my mate? He will want to mark me. What if I freak out? What if can’t go through with it?

These thoughts kept me awake most of the night. When it’s time for training,

Dad goes light on me again, but it still pushes me. When we’re finally done, I’m sore and decide to take a long, hot bath to soothe my aching muscles and hopefully clear my head. I still have some of the muscle soak from Rik’s gift and I pour that into the tub. When I slide in, I lean my head back against the edge of the tub and just soak until the water goes cold.

I should pick up some flowers to take to my mother’s memorial. I have no idea what Luna Calista and Rik bring as far as flowers but we’re heading into spring, and some color would be nice, I think.

Around two, I head over to the florist. When I walk in, I don’t really know what to look for. There is an older woman behind the counter. “Can I help you?” She asks
