The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper
Chapter 459

Chapter 0459 

I turned 15 over the weekend. I had really hoped to meet my mate on my actual birthday, but that didn’t happen. Anders and I had gone out both Friday and Saturday nights, hoping that I would find her. Since it didn’t happen, I had settled on the idea that Anders and I would have to travel around to find her. He turns 18 in a couple of months but he’s already feeling a pull to Calista Johns. He thinks she is his mate. He’s been pursuing her but she’s completely uninterested. 

It’s frustrating him because he’s never had to pursue a love interest. Women usually fall at our feet. It doesn’t even matter how old they are, we’ve both had women old enough to be our mother that have found their way into our beds. 

I found the entire situation hilarious until Monday morning, when I showed up at training and smelled the most delicious scent of orange blossoms and ginger. I followed the scent and found Lily Raines sparring with Lucas, Anders future Lead Warrior. He’s already decided that Lucas will take that position, and I agree. Next to me, he’s the strongest warrior in the pack. At least I thought he was until Lily pinned him. 

Seeing Lily sprawled on top of Lucas, even if his face was to the ground had Donovan snarling in my head. He didn’t like seeing her touching another male, much less straddling one. Her long, curly brown hair was up in a ponytail, and when she looked up in triumph, I could see her eyes are a stunning azure blue. 

I knew she was good, Anders and I have been training her for years, but I didn’t realize she was that good. Maybe I just wasn’t paying attention, but I am now. Both Donovan and I are proud that our mate is strong. 

What I wasn’t expecting was for her to give me the same cold shoulder that Calista was giving Anders. Now it’s not nearly so funny. What’s worse, it’s pretty apparent that she doesn’t even like me. 

Donovan needs to be closer to her, so I switch partners with hers in Chemistry. I realize quickly that she’s not just beautiful and strong, she’s intelligent. And thankfully, I take Chemistry seriously. It’s something that, as a Guardian, I feel I need to have knowledge of, whether it is to save my life or Anders, you never know what type of concoction other supernaturals or worse, hunters will try to inject in you. 

When she tells me she thinks I’m after her only to sleep with her, I know I’ve got my work cut out for me. Yeah, I’ve been pretty indiscriminate with my bed partners, but I’ve never given any of them any reason to think that they were anything more than a short–term good time. I’ve always wanted my mate, I just

didn’t really think about the need to wait for her, or how she might feel about me given my extensive history. Honestly, none of the other women I’ve been with cared that I’d slept around. I guess that’s why Lily is my mate, she does care and now I need to do some damage control. 

First and foremost, I need to figure out when she turns 18. Then, I need to woo her until then so she’s willing to accept our mate bond when she finally feels it. Two classes later, I’m sitting in Literature. I could care less about books written hundreds of years ago. It will do nothing to make me a better Guardian, but it’s required to graduate, so I’m here. I’m lounging in my chair, my eyes closed and contemplating a nap, when I smell her scent. My eyes snap open as she walks past my desk and sits three seats in front of me. How have I never realized that she was in my class?
