Chapter 69: My Pledge To My Daughter

Daniel’s POV

I awoke at the first roaster crow, I came out of the hut where I was staying, the people who had saved us were kind, and it was surprising they were not werewolves like us, they were just ordinary humans who lived in the wilderness, who are kind and don't mind rendering help to people, most of them are good with herbs, and I was quickly recovering.

I couldn't wait to return to my people and was sad to leave Athena. I know my people must have wondered what was wrong with me and why I vanished without a trace, and I need to return to them quickly before Andrew or Andrea takes over my position.

I've determined that today will be the last day I spend in this place, and I've decided to use this opportunity to bond with my kid; I can't persuade Athena to join me, and forcing my boy away from her will only lead to greater hatred from her.

I got out of bed and went outdoors; everything was calm, and I looked up at the dark sky; everywhere would be bright in less than an hour.
