The One He Claimed by Cooper

Chapter 107: Brooklyn's Role Brooklyn

When Luna Sophie asked for volunteers to come out of the safe rooms, I was one of many who raised my hand. I'm tired of standing by and letting others fight for me. I need to be strong and while I know I have only been sparring for just over a week, I've been practicing in my spare time and Cas has been helping me. He may not be a warrior, but he's always participated in warrior training, so he's strong and knowledgeable of how to fight.

As Luna Sophie ends the meeting, she makes eye contact with me and gestures for me to wait a moment. I can feel tears p**g at my eyes. I already know what she's going to say. She doesn't feel like I'm strong enough to fight.

I wait as others ask her and Beta Kinsley questions before she finally moves to me. I watch as Beta Lucas finds Beta Kinsley and pulls her aside. I'm guessing he isn't any happier than Alpha Hunter about his mate being outside a safe room during this fight. I'm willing to give up my spot so one of them can be in the room, but I know Luna Sophie is about to tell me no.

"Brooklyn, I saw you raise your hand before, volunteering to come out of the safe rooms..." she begins.

"Luna, I know I'm not the strongest fighter, or even much of a fighter, but please, I want to fight for this pack who has done so much for me. Please don't make me go into a safe room." Chapter 102: Brooklyn's Role

She smiles at me and takes my hand in hers. "There are two reasons that I want you in a safe room, Brooklyn, and neither of them is because I don't think you're strong enough to fight for this pack. Hear me out, and then we can decide together, okay?"

I nod, now unsure of what she's going to say.

"The first reason that I want you in a safe room is because I know we're going to need you when the fighting is done. The warriors have done nothing but sing your praises since the last battle when you stitched so many of them up. We'll need that again after this war, probably more so. You can't help out in the hospital if you yourself are recovering from injuries."

I notice she doesn't say 'if you're dead' which makes me think that she means what she's saying.

that's where I want you when this is done. Don't think I'm asking that because it will be easy. If you thought you worked hard during the last battle, it will most likely be worse this time and we have
