The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0386

Eli and I went to our room early. This weekend, while taxing emotionally, has been good for us. It’s the most time we’ve been able to spend together in weeks and when we return to our pack, we’ll have to get right back to long, tiring days.

I keep my promise from earlier and finish what I started. It feels good to reconnect with my mate, to be able to shut out the world and let it just be him and me for a couple of hours.

“I want you to push out like you did with Trevor to start. Let Angel feel your aura, let her manipulate it then push it out slowly like you did before.”

I do, and it’s a strange feeling letting Angel control my aura, almost like it’s being molded like clay. Ailduin has us move around, picking and choosing

individuals here and there to be protected, working Angel’s gift at the same time
