The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0567

Mom: Actually, I don’t want your father to know. Could you meet me behind the lake?

Me: Sure. What time?

As I head out, I run my fingers through my hair, finger combing it as I head out to the lake. I wave at a couple of people and when I get to the lake, I can’t help but smile at the spot where Clint and I completed our mate bond early this morning.
