The Broken Warrior's Daughter

We turn our attention to the new wolves coming in, tearing into them. | hear her grunt and | know she’s taken a hit at the same moment that | feel claws slide down my side. | turn, grabbing onto the back of the rogue’s neck, Donovan shaking his head ferociously, breaking his neck.

We're surrounded, Lily and | are back-to-back, protecting each other when the rest of the pack finally arrives, Anders and Patrick in the front. | immediately go back on the offensive, tearing into rogues, ripping them apart, and keeping an eye on Lily, making sure she doesn’t get hurt too badly.

When the battle is finally over, we all reconvene next to Zed, Patrick’s wolf. Suddenly, several warriors shift back, and | realize they are all looking from Donovan to Andra.

“We have two Guardians?”

“Holy shit, when did that happen?”

“No one can defeat our pack now.”

More warriors start to shift back and Donovan snarls, moving to stand in front of Andra. Patrick shifts back as well. “No one will speak of this to anyone outside the pack. That is

my Alpha

command.” He says and | can feel his pushing out over the warriors. ItAll content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

doesn’t affect Donovan or Andra, but | watch as they all expose their necks in submission to their Alpha.

“If | may Alpha, why wouldn’t we want anyone to know that we have two Guardians in our pack?”

Patrick sighs, looking at me. | growl at him. | don’t want them to know who it is, but there’s really no way to keep it a secret now. “Because she’s underage and it puts her at risk of being kidnapped by another pack to force her into a mate bond.” They all look back at Andra again, eliciting another snarl from Donovan.

The Lead Warrior, Lyle, puts his hands up in a surrendering gesture. “Donovan, she’s a pack member, We would never hurt her. And if I’m not mistaken, that’s Andra. Lily goes to school with my son, Lucas. As the Lead Warrior, it would also be my job to protect her from anyone that wanted to take her against her will from this pack. | guess this explains why she’s been moved to the packhouse.”

“It's not the only reason, but it is the main reason.” Patrick says.

. As he’s talking, | see Lily’s father’s wolf, Gideon, coming forward. Aaron may be a total shit to his daughter, but Gideon is obviously proud that his daughter is a body, keeping myself between him and Lily.

Guardian. He stops when | shift” He looks at me before turning to Andra and nodding his head at her, acknowledging her.

Andra moves to walk up beside me. Donovan reaches over and gently nips at her shoulder, wanting her to stay away from Gideon, not trusting Aaron. She stops. and the strange dynamics do not go unnoticed by the other warriors. There is no reason | should be keeping an underaged she-wolf from her father. Not only am | keeping him away, but Gideon isn’t fighting it and it’s obvious that, while several of us knew she was a Guardian, her father did not.

As we stand there, | hear Patrick send out a mind link to the entire pack. Not everyone was here to get his Alpha command. It would be simple for say, Aaron, to get Lily’s mother to tell someone outside the pack about their daughter being a Guardian. Therefore, Patrick sends the Alpha command to the entire pack all at

once.

Gideon chuffs at Andra before turning and walking off toward his home.
