The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0416

The ride home is long, made longer because of the stress of how the tournament ended.

Thankfully, Grace is feeling better, and Cara and Angel agreed they are as well. That, at least, isn’t

something I need to worry about. Our injured pack members have mostly healed overnight. Those that haven’t will see Sirona when we get back. I check in with Noah, letting him know what happened and that we’re on our way back. Everything seems fine back at the pack, so that also

helps me to relax.

Grace, sensing my stress, lays her head on my chest. I can feel her fatigue through the bond. She may be feeling better, but she’s still feeling the effects of her power surge yesterday. I’m not sure if that’s the right description of what happened, but that’s what it felt like. As she leans against me, I wrap my arms around her, getting settled so she can sleep against me. I lean my head back and allow myself to fall asleep.

When we arrive back at the packhouse, I call a meeting with the ranked members and include Ezra as our new Lead Warrior and excuse Sirona so she can take care of the injured we brought home. After Noah congratulates Ezra, we get down to business.

“You all know we were attacked by hunters at the tournament. There were a lot of them, Grace says over a thousand, but we know that is a small number compared to how many there are nationwide. Rik, Liam and I talked about it. We believe that the Guardians are now a target. The hunters have seen their power and unfortunately, a couple escaped. They will report back to their leaders, and we believe they will come for them.”

“They won’t get our Luna.” Carlos says, echoing everyone’s sentiment.
