Blind Female Warrior のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Kalilah POVThe last thing I expected was to wake up and see Damon in one of my dreams. But I knew I had to warn him, so I did what I had to, telling him about what was going on. He deserved to know Axel was sending people.So I warned him.The two of us met again a few nights later. I couldn’t believe our wolves were communicating with one another in the dream world. It was fucking crazy. Surreal, even. Like we were tethered in some invisible way, no matter the distance between us.“Axel tried to ask me for an alliance.”Those were the first words out of his mouth.I burst out laughing. “Are you serious?”“I am, but my reaction was the same as yours,” he said, a crooked grin pulling at his lips. “I told him where he could shove his offer.”He was close by. Too close. I could feel the warmth radiating off his body, the way my wolf instinctively leaned toward him despite everything. Even though this wasn’t real. Not in the way I wanted it to be.I stayed put, but resisted the urge to t

Damon POVBeing able to see Kalilah during my dreams was making it easier for her to be gone.But most times I wasn’t even aware of it. It was our wolves that were doing the talking.Except that night.I woke up in the dream, noticing Kalilah was sitting nearby meditating.“How long have you been here?” I asked as casually as I could muster.She lifted her head, turning toward me. “Not long.”I stepped closer, the soft ground beneath us shifting slightly. “You always meditate in dreamscape, or am I just the lucky one who caught it?”She gave a faint smile. “My wolf said you’d show up. Guess she’s getting better at predictions.”“Or she’s getting impatient.”Kalilah tilted her head. “With what?”I hesitated, then said, “With us.”Her brow rose slightly, like she hadn’t expected me to go there. “There is no ‘us,’ Damon.”“Then why are we here?” I asked, stepping closer again. Close enough to feel the heat coming off her. “Why do our wolves keep pulling us into this place, night after ni

Axel POVThe air smelled different here, thick with salt and something sharp I didn’t like. Portland wasn’t Seattle, not by a long shot. But this was where I was headed. Where Kalilah was hiding, and I was done chasing shadows.She was here somewhere.I don’t know where but she wasn’t going to be able to hide for long.It was strange being here out of Seattle. For most of my life that place had been my home but now it didn’t matter.Kalilah was where my home was and she was going to have to realize that.Rafe’s voice came from behind me before I even turned around. “Axel, you don’t want to do this.”Oh that was fucking annoying to hear coming from my Beta who should back me up.Of course I wanted to do this.I had planned for this.This was going to happen whether he liked it or not.I kept my eyes on the crowded docks, the way people bustled past like the city wasn’t on the edge of chaos. “I’ve made up my mind.”He stepped closer, urgency bleeding into his tone. “Portland’s a mess ri

Kalilah POV“Long time no see.”I stiffened the second I heard his voice.It was a voice that haunted my dreams. I wished I could live my life without ever hearing it again, but obviously, I wasn’t going to get that wish.He had followed me to Portland, determined to make me pay for what I had done.“You made a mistake in coming here,” I warned.But I could smell how many he brought with him. More people than I thought.It wasn’t good.I wouldn’t show fear, however.“No, my dear, you made a mistake in ever leaving me or thinking you could ever be free of me and the pack.”Then he snapped his fingers, and like that, we were at war.I swung my blade, taking out as many people as I could. The wolves Axel brought with him lashed out at me first, obviously on Axel’s orders, but I made quick work of them.The others were having a more difficult time, except my brother Kiran. He might not have been as well trained as I was, but my brother was trained by my father to an extent.It wasn’t goin

Damon POVKalilah was approaching us, her lips peeled back in a sneer.I stared ahead, taking a step forward.“Kalilah, it’s Damon. Your mate.”She growled, low and dangerous, shoulders tensed like she was ready to pounce. But there—just for a second—I saw it. The flicker of hesitation in her eyes.“She is going to attack,” Caden muttered under his breath.I rolled my eyes. “Caden, that isn’t fucking helping so drop it.”“I’m just saying—”“You’re making it worse,” I snapped. “Shut up or back off.”Kalilah’s eyes flicked between us, confusion starting to edge into her expression. Her claws hadn’t retracted, but her stance shifted—less aggressive, more uncertain.“Kalilah,” I said again, voice lower this time. “You’re safe. No one here’s going to hurt you.”“Perhaps if you change into your wolf form, you can help her focus on your scent.”I looked at Caden, smirking. “Smart.”Without another word, I shifted into my wolf form. Instantly, Kalilah relaxed. Her eyes flickered in pain and e
