The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0254

We make our way up the path made by the pack members, many of whom I have yet to meet. Dustin stops to set Sarah down in a seat in the front before continuing our trek to the stage. We climb the steps and he walks me to Liam.

Liam takes my hands in his, smiling down at me, his eyes full of love. Still holding my hands, he pulls me to a table at the front of the stage, before turning to address the crowd.

She is kind and loving, yet fierce, protective and strong. She is a Luna worthy of this pack, and I couldn’t be prouder to make her my Luna today.”

As soon as I do, I can feel the pack link open up and hundreds of pack member voices are in my head. Alessia pushes forward and takes control of the noise in our head, managing it
