All Chapters of Cherish Me, Daddy: Chapter 171 - Chapter 176

ELI'S POVFor a long while, nobody moved. The ocean continued crashing beneath the cliffs while the cold night wind wrapped around us softly, carrying away the ashes of grief and bloodshed into the endless dark.I stayed kneeling on the ground with the twins clinging tightly against me while Mom, Dad, and Elena remained close enough to touch me as if they were afraid I’d disappear the moment they let go.Honestly? Maybe I was afraid of that too. Everything felt unreal, Elion was gone and the nightmare was over. And yet my chest still hurt like someone had reached inside and split my heart open with bare hands.Then suddenly... a familiar voice echoed softly inside my head. “My moonling.” I froze instantly. Noom, my wolf.For years, his voice had remained faint... distant... almost asleep beneath my consciousness ever since I discovered what I truly was.But now? he sounded stronger, warmer and relieved.“You’re safe,” Noom whispered quietly inside me.Tears burned my eyes again. “I a

One month since Elion’s betrayal had been silenced by the cold reality of justice and the sweeping winds of the high ridges.

The estate was alive with laughter today, servants hurried back and forth, their arms laden with silver trays of foods, vibrant floral arrangements, and an absurd, towering amount of cake.Today was special. Very special. It was Lucien and Elisen’s sixth birthday."Papa!"I looked up from my inspection of the dessert table just in time to see Lucien sprinting across the courtyard. He was dressed in a miniature suit, the fabric crisp and dark against his sun-kissed s
