The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0283

When I wake, it’s in a dream state. I’m walking in a forest. I can hear small animals moving around, but nothing else. It’s very quiet here. Beautiful, but lonely. Where is everyone?

“Hello? Liam? Alessia?” I call out loud.

‘I’m here.‘ Says an exhausted sounding Alessia.

“Where are we?”

In my head, she lifts her head off the ground, looking around. ‘I know this place.”

“Where is it? Are we near the pack lands?

‘No.‘ she says, just as Clint steps out of the trees in front of me.

“Clint!” I run to him, throwing my arms around him. “I thought you were dead!”

“I am sweetheart. It was my time. But why are you here? It’s not your time.”

I look around me again. “I don’t know why I’m here. I woke up here.” I turn to look at him, horrified. “Am I dead? Where is Liam?!” I demand.

“Can you hear Alessia in your head?” He asks me.

“Yes. I can hear her.”

“Then, you’re not dead. How about we look around and try to figure out why you’re here.”

He puts his arm around my shoulders, guiding me to a cliff. When I look down, I can see the carnage of the battle. “We won.” I state.
