Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 50: PROVOCATION
ELI'S POVEverything was prepared in a single day. That realization unsettled me more than anything Cody had whispered in my ear the night before.By morning, the estate no longer felt like a guarded residence...it felt like a royal court awaiting coronation. Workers moved in perfect synchronization across the grounds. Crimson and black banners bearing Asterhaven’s crest were draped from the balconies. Lanterns were hung in symmetrical rows along the courtyard. A raised ceremonial dais had been constructed at the center of the great hall, elevated higher than before, as if designed specifically for spectacle.For claiming.For marking.For war disguised as tradition.Cody’s staff was terrifyingly efficient. Florists arranged white roses and deep indigo night-blooming flowers around the dais. Long banquet tables were set with polished silver and crystal glasses. Even the stone floors were scrubbed until they reflected light like water.Every detail screamed intention. Every detail scre
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 49: PLAYED WELL
ELI'S POV The banquet hall shimmered with gold.Light from a hundred suspended lanterns spilled across polished stone floors, catching on goblets of wine and plates of roasted meat glazed in honey and herbs. Laughter rose in measured waves... too loud, too deliberate. The scent of celebration hung thick in the air: spiced fish, aged oak from the wine barrels, and beneath it all, the layered pheromones of a powerful pack secure in its territory.And threaded through everything... inescapable... was Alpha Cody.I stood half a step behind him, precisely where he had positioned me before the doors opened.“Remember,” he had murmured earlier while adjusting the cuffs of his dark coat, “you smile when I smile. You stand when I stand. You speak only if I allow it.”His fingers had brushed my chin as if I were porcelain he had purchased and wished to inspect. “And you will not embarrass me.”Not embarrass him. As though I had ever had the power to do so. Now I kept my posture straight, shoul
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 48: THE INFILTRATION
LUCEN'S POV I looked back at Marin. “You’re going to tell me everything you know about Asterhaven’s estate layout. Guard rotations. Cody’s habits.” Marin exhaled shakily. “I will.” The words seemed to settle a storm inside him, but the tremor remained. My gaze drifted toward the dark window overlooking the estate. Four weeks. He had been there four weeks, trapped behind gilded doors while the world pretended the tide would wash him away. The image of his beautiful face, eyes hollow, stitched into the memory of the storm that had brought him to me, surged through my mind. I felt something cold and precise set inside my chest, a blade of purpose sharpening with each breath. The pack members shifted, their murmurs a low tide beneath the surface. I knew the politics of Asterhaven well enough to read the ripple on each face: fear, curiosity, the thin veneer of loyalty that could crack at any moment. I could feel Vulk’s twin‑headed roar in my veins, a promise of violence I could unleash
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 47: THE PLAN
LUCEN'S POVEverything StoppedThe iron taste on my tongue never left. It lingered, I could still feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end, as if some invisible wind were still howling against the stone walls of the council hall.“Eli,” I said, my voice lower than intended, dangerous. A single syllable that seemed to echo off the granite and bounce back at me, thick with accusations. “How do you know that name?”Marin didn’t look away. His eyes were the colour of the sea at dusk...gray, restless, unwilling to surrender. “I found him,” he said.My fists clenched automatically, knuckles whitening. “Where?”“In the sea,” he answered. “About four weeks ago.”Four weeks. The words hit my chest like a weight of stone. My breath caught, shallow and frantic. “He was weak,” Marin continued, “barely breathing. I pulled him out near my nets.”My mind raced violently. Alive. He was alive.“Did he drift to Asterhaven’s coast?” Drew asked sharply, his voice a blade sliding across the
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 46: WHO'S MARIN?
LUCEN'S POVSleep became a stranger to me.Not the kind that drifts lightly and disappears at dawn... but the kind that stands at the edge of my bed and refuses to come closer. Every night I dismissed the servants, barred the doors, and sat across from Drew in my private study with maps sprawled between us like open wounds. The ink‑stained coastlines were more than paper; they were the edges of a promise I could no longer keep.Asterhaven.The name felt like a splinter lodged beneath my skin.“We’ve confirmed again,” Drew said quietly, tapping the marked coastline. “Every other territory responded. Some allowed our scouts limited access. Some sent written confirmations. Only Asterhaven remains silent.”“Not silent,” I muttered. “Deliberate.”Drew studied me carefully. “You believe he’s there.”“Yes.” My voice sounded thin, as if it were traveling through a long tunnel. It wasn’t a guess anymore. It was instinct.Vulk stirred restlessly at the back of my mind, claws scraping against bo
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 45: LEVERAGE
ELI'S POV"Open the door.” The voice that followed was unmistakable. It cut through the night air with the sharpness of a blade.An Alpha’s voice.It held authority, honed by suspicion. I could almost see the ridge of his jaw, the cold steel in his gaze. My skin prickled as the scent of his pheromones brushed the edge of my nostrils.From the outside, I heard another voice—low, a warrior’s whisper. ”Alpha, the house is dark. They might not be home."Through the small window, I saw them. The Alpha who answered was a towering figure, shoulders as broad as the doors he was about to break. His eyes flickered over the dark interior like storm clouds searching for a flash of lightning. ”I can smell someone inside,” he said, his tone calm, ”a faint scent.”My blood ran cold. The scent was no longer just his; it was a mix... Alpha Cody’s iron, the metallic tang of fear, and my own scent rising, leaking despite my attempts to hold it down. Noom surged, a white flash of panic."Control," I hear
