The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0421

After dinner, Eli and I went up to our room. “Baby, what do you need to prepare for your battle with

your father?”

I turn and look at him, confused. “What do you mean? There’s no way he’s going to defeat me.

He walks over, pulling my hips against his, putting his forehead on mine. “Grace, every Alpha there saw what you can do. There is no way your father is going to fight fair. He’s lost before the battle begins. So, what do you think he would do?”

I understand what he means. If my father intends to fight me for the pack, he knows he can’t beat

me outright. “What do you think he will do?”

“Well, I think we need to make sure that the battle is as fair as possible. We’re going to bring

some of our pack members with us. But I also want to talk to Alpha Anders. He’s an elder and if

he’s there, it would mean that any cheating would immediately disqualify your father from the

challenge.”

“Do you think Alpha Anders would be willing to come with us?”

“All we can do is ask.” Eli says.

Every time I begin to feel sorry for him, I remember my mother, clutching her chest, rolling on the floor in pain. Or I remember that last moment, when she seemed to realize something was wrong, right before her heart stopped. When I remember that, I realize, there is no one else that can do this. That pack is my right. If he had been the kind of father he should have been,
