Blind Female Warrior

Kaliah POVBy the time I woke up, I realized I was on a motorcycle. A cloth belt had been wrapped around my waist to keep me secure from my brother. He must’ve felt me stirring and stopped the bike at a red light, glancing back at me.The two of us were siblings, but couldn’t look more different. I took after our mother, who was Asian, my long black hair and brown eyes a remnant of her looks. While my brother took after our father, a typical blonde-haired and blue-eyed Caucasian man.I was struck by the fact that my brother seemed very different right now. He had somehow survived and was also taking the lead, making me wonder what had changed.When we’re growing up, I was the one who took life more seriously. I loved fighting and dedicated myself to honing my body into a weapon. Meanwhile, Kiran didn’t take life that seriously. He was a playboy and a flirt, always bouncing from woman to woman.But it also meant he was a very charming man who had great social skills. I lacked social sk

Kaliah POVThe two of us couldn’t stay at the inn forever. I knew that much was true.Kiran suggested we stay another week before traveling to find his friend. I agreed, but I was also aware that things could go wrong at the drop of a hat.“Tell me more about this friend of yours,” I said one evening when we were training.He chuckled. “Remember when I was traveling north? Well, while I was driving, I came across this man being attacked by a group of rogue werewolves. I jumped off my bike and helped him. This gave the guy a chance to use the Dark Moon distress signal to call for help.”My eyes widened. “You saved someone from the Dark Moon Pack?”“Not just anyone from the pack, sis. I saved the Alpha—the head of the pack. Can you fucking believe it?”I shook my head. “No, I can’t.”“Believe it, Kaliah,” he said, laughing. “After I helped him, he said he owed me a favor. Given everything that has happened over the past few weeks, I figure it’s time we cashed in on that favor.”My broth

Kaliah POVThere was this pull toward Damon, and I hated it.I moved quietly through the room, tying the black ribbon around my eyes. My fingers found the knot without effort now. With a soft sigh, I reached for my boots by memory, careful not to wake Kiran.Or so I thought.A loud yawn cracked through the silence.“Seriously?” I muttered, freezing mid-lace.“Morning to you, too, sunshine,” came Kiran’s groggy voice from his room. He shifted in his bed, blankets rustling like a storm in a laundry basket.I rolled my eyes. “It’s not even light out.”“And yet here you are, acting like you’re going to war.”“I am going to war. With my balance. And possibly a few tree branches.”He chuckled, and I heard the creak of his mattress as he sat up. “You know, you could sleep in. Just once. Maybe try something radical, like rest.”“Rest doesn’t make you a warrior. Training does.”“You’re blind, not invincible,” he said, yawning again. “Go easy.”“Go back to sleep, Kiran.”He grunted, flopping ba

Kalilah POVThe scent of bleach and lavender clung to the pack house kitchen like it was trying too hard to cover something up—maybe the stench of resentment.I was just trying to keep my head down and help. Folded towels. Cleaned dishes. Stayed out of the way.It was difficult to adjust to living here. I was known as the mate of Damon, or one day would be, should the mating be made official.One person who didn’t like me was Caden. He seemed to despise me, acting like my mere presence here was just to annoy him. Then there was the woman here.I tried to be helpful.Didn’t matter.They hated me, acting like typical jealous women.I bet they all thought they had a chance with Damon, which was why they were lashing out at me the way they were. But the joke was on them. I didn’t want Damon!Well, my wolf was leaning towards him.She was stubborn, but with him being part of the Dark Moon Pack, it wasn’t possible.My pack, the Silver Moon Pack, had cut ties with them years ago. Or the Dark

Damon POVI hadn’t enjoyed being away from the estate for business.Had nothing to do with Kalilah. I just hated all that political bullshit.But it also did have a little something to do with it.My wolf wanted Kalilah. It was howling in despair about being away from her, and it was pissing me off, making me feel conflicted.I shouldn’t have anything to do with her. She was part of the Silver Moon Pack. Even if Axel had taken over, it didn’t change the fact that this was where her bloodline went.Grumbling, I glanced out the window and then at Caden. He had a pinched expression on his face and was likely still annoyed at me.Caden had been annoyed since I invited Kalilah and her brother to live with the pack.But didn’t he understand? I had a debt to pay back to Kiran, and with Kalilah being my mate, it was something I felt I had to do.I knew it was going to cause problems with the pack. It was already causing problems.But to let her go? I didn’t think I could do it.I rubbed the b
