The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper novel Chapter 285

Chapter 0285 

Her voice begins to waver and I watch as she loses the battle against her tears and they start to fall down her cheeks. “Even in death, he was looking out for me. And I know that he’s looking down, watching everyone here today, keeping an eye on this pack and this family that he loved so much. He may be gone from our daily lives, but he will always be here.” She takes her hand and puts it over her heart. And I’m so thankful that I got to meet such an amazing man in my lifetime, a man who became like a father to me.” 

She turns and begins to walk off the podium. I watch as Cara stands, and goes to her and they hug tightly, crying together for the loss of their father, their friend, their Guardian bond. 

We stayed for dinner that night. Angel spent some time talking to Cara and explaining her time with Clint while she was unconscious. The talk seemed to help Cara and I could tell that Rik breathed a sigh of relief. 

I pulled him aside later in the evening. “How are you holding up?” I ask him. 

We stay within eyesight of our mates, neither of us wanting them out of our sight. 

“I feel better after seeing her with Angel today. I think it went a long way toward helping her to heal. You probably understand the loss of a parent better than I do, and Angel definitely does.”

We sit and he puts his head in his hands. “We don’t know how that of hers may impact the baby. We don’t know if the near miscarriage was from her blast of power or from her despair of losing her father. I can’t lose them.” He whispers the last part. 

I bring my hand down on his shoulder. “You won’t. I think one thing that we’ve learned about our mates is that they are much stronger than even we knew. They are amazing women. I don’t know about our children, obviously you and I are in the same boat now. But I do know that our mates are the strongest wolves I’ve ever met in my life.” 

He smiles, looking over at our girls, hugging each other. “I’ll warn you now, if I have a girl and you have a boy, he better keep his hands off my daughter.” Rik tells me. 

“Same goes and I think we both know I can be a whole hell of a lot more. intimidating than you.” I retort. 

He snorts. “That’s a matter of opinion.”

We sit in silence for another moment just watching our mates. “I can’t believe we’re both going to be dads in a few months.” 

“It’s amazing, isn’t it?” 

“It’s incredible.” 

Later than night when we’re back home, after reminding my mate how much I love her, how important she is to me and how much I enjoy her screaming my name in pleasure, I tuck her against me in bed. I kiss the top of her head, smelling her scent of raspberries and cream now mixed with a headier scent of the forest. 

After talking to Rik, I feel pretty confident based on the change in scent from my inate that we’re having a boy. Rik said Cara smells more like vanilla. Angel smells more like the forest, more like what she says that I smell like to her. So, yeah, I’m pretty confident that we’re having a boy.
