The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0135

I’m glad my father is asking about the broken alliance between the wolves and the fae. My interactions with King Ailduin and Aolis have been positive to this point. There must be a way to mend the alliance, but we need to know what caused the break to begin with.

Dad looks at Clint. “I would really like to know what caused the rift between our kind. If there is anything that I can do as an Alpha or my son, as the future Alpha to mend our alliance, I would like to do that.”
