Breed Me. Daddy Alpha novel Chapter 319

“Tell me how! He buried me alive! He left me bleeding in the ground with a knife in my chest. How do I rise from the dirt? How do I claw out when the earth is pressing me down?”

My wolf growled inside me, restless, pacing.

You are not dead, Damon. You are not gone. You are alive and your lungs still pull air. Use it. Use every ounce of rage he gave you. Use the power you swallowed. Dig, claw, scream, bite. The earth is nothing compared to you now.

I shook my head, my chest heaving, tears burning in my wolf ’s eyes. “Father, I am sorry. I am so sorry. I could not save you from him. I was blind. I believed the lies, I believed the stories they told me about rogues and thieves, and I left you to die. You bled alone while Darren slit your throat and drank your blood. Forgive me. Please, forgive me.”

A shape moved in the distance. The light tore open again and there he was..my father, still with his throat carved open, blood pouring down his chest, but his eyes glowing brighter now, locking onto mine with the weight of every generation before us.

“You are my son,” he said. “You carry my blood, my strength, my crown. You are not meant to rot in the dirt while your brother wears your name. Rise, Damon. Rise and take back what is yours. Save her. Save Lyra. Save them all.”

I dropped to my knees, my paws trembling, my wolf snarling and howling inside me. “But how? How do I claw through soil when my body is broken? How do I breathe when the dirt is choking me? How do I fight when I am half gone already?”

Stop asking how! my wolf bellowed, his voice shaking my ribs from the inside. Start doing. The earth is not your coffin. It is your proving ground. Break it. Shatter it. Tear your way through until the world knows you will not die today.

I looked back at my father, at the light fading around him, at the wound in his throat that still poured. My chest ached with

guilt so sharp it nearly split me in two. “I am sorry I could not save you. I am sorry I was not there. I am sorry I let him become this.”
