The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper novel Chapter 404

Chapter 0404 

After breakfast, the battles begin. These initial fights are elimination of the weaker packs, and because there are so many packs, it’s time consuming. 

At lunch time, everyone breaks to eat. We meet up with Cara, Rik, Liam and Angel. All our warriors are still in the battle. The first two rounds have been completed, eliminating just under 2500 wolves. The afternoon battles will have fewer contestants, but they will last longer as the stronger warriors progress to the next levels. 

We’re getting food and finding a table when Angel turns. “Jude?” 

I watch as an older gentleman turns, looking at Angel. “Do I know you?” 

Angel sets down her tray before walking over to the gentleman. Liam is watching her uneasily, and Grace reaches her arms out to take Richie. Liam passes him off and follows Angel. 

“Jude. It’s me, Angel Bennis. Well, I’m Angel Holstin now. 

“Angel? Angel, oh my goddess.” He says and pulls her into a hug, eliciting a loud snarl from Liam. Jude immediately drops his arms stepping back. 

“Alpha Liam. I meant no disrespect. I was friends with Angel’s father. We were warriors together.” He says, exposing his throat in submission. I guess everyone here knows the Alpha of the pack that has been named the strongest for nearly a decade. 

Angel turns to Liam. “Jude was the one that helped my family. The only time I remember feeling safe after we left the pack.” 

Liam’s entire demeanor changes and he reaches o helping my mate and her family.” 

his hand. “I owe you a debt of gratitude for 

Jude looks back at Angel. “When we found your parents…” He stops, getting choked up. “We thought, we thought you…” 

“It’s a long story. One I’d be happy to share when we have more time if you want to hear it.” 

“I want to hear it.” 

As I watch, another Alpha walks up. “Jude, what’s going on here?” 

“Alpha Paul, May I introduce you to Liam and Angel Holstin. Angel is the daughter of Richard and Kathryn Bennis.” Jude’s manner changes as the Alpha approaches. He is no longer relaxed. His Alpha or this conversation is making him nervous. 

The Alpha turns to Jude. “The couple that left our pack so suddenly and we later found killed? But I thought their daughter died with them.” He says, turning back to Angel. 

I can see that Angel is following Jude’s lead and treading lightly in the conversation. “No, as ! mentioned to Jude, it’s a long story and one that we don’t have time to get into right now.” 

The Alpha stares at Angel a moment too long, causing Liam to step closer to her, putting his arm 

around her protectively. 

“I would like to know why your family left. From what my father tells me, he never understood why his Lead Warrior would just leave and turn rogue. He searched for your family for years until we 

found them dead.” 

“Angel’s father didn’t trust your father with his daughter’s life.” Liam says. 

“My father would never have harmed a member of his pack. That is preposterous. I don’t know what you think your father’s reasons were, but my father was a good Alpha.” As I watch, Jude’s jaw clenches. Definitely something going on there. 

“What is it?” Grace asks me, patting Richie on the back and bouncing softly like I’ve seen Angel and Cara doing when they are holding the babies. 

“Something is off with that Alpha. We’ve seen too many of our pack members react around Alphas. not to notice the signs.” I say quietly. Grace looks over and it only takes her a minute. 

“Definitely something off. Do you know who they are?” She replies just as quietly.
