The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0208

I have never, not once, begged for anything, and definitely not while I was on my knees. Not until today. Today, I will do anything that this woman wants me to do, if she will only stay with me. Rik’s words come flooding back into my head. ‘Be everything she needs and wants you to be.‘ I didn’t know what that meant, but right now, it means that I will humble myself as I have never done before.

When I realize that it’s me she’s running from, because of what I looked like when I left Eli, I feel a stabbing pain in my heart. I did this. I made our mate scared of us.

‘And you better fucking fix it. I warned you. If we lose her, I will go feral and I’ll kill anyone and everyone in my path.‘

Even if my wolf wasn’t threatening to go feral, I must fix this. This sweet little angel has found a way to calm the chaos in my mind and body. I need her like I need air to breathe. Cara’s rejection is nothing compared to the possibility of Angel rejecting us.

As she paints the picture, I can see that her witnessing me covered in blood has thrown her back into her own private hell. As soon as she starts hyperventilating, I’m ready. I expect her to pass out and when she starts to drop, I jump up to catch her before she can fall off the cliff.

Once she’s in my arms, I turn and see Dustin watching. I snarl at him. He raises his hands in a surrendering gesture and bares his neck. “I made sure no one else was up here. It was just me and you know I will never say anything.”

Alphas don’t submit. If the pack thought that I was weak, I’d be challenged daily and I’d have to kill too many pack members before re–claiming my undisputed title of Alpha.

I begin the slow decent back down the waterfall with Angel in my arms. I look at Dustin. “I need you to run things until I can take care of this. I need to make this right. Nothing is more important than her right now.”

“Yes Alpha.”
