All Chapters of Blind Female Warrior: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Damon POVMy phone buzzed on the desk.Kiran.I answered on the first ring. “Tell me something useful.”His voice came in sharp, breath ragged. “You’re not going to like it.”My gut tightened. “What happened?”“I got confirmation,” he said, voice low, like he’d been running. Axel put out a hit. An official one.”I froze. “How official?”“Flyers. Gold promised for proof. Word’s spreading through the rogue channels and the mercenary lines. He wants her alive, but he’ll settle for dead.”I gritted my teeth. “That son of a—”“She’s in real danger, Damon. And he’s still looking. Actively.”I turned away from the window, dragging a hand down my face. “How close are they?”“Hard to say. Some got wind of her trail, but no one’s caught up. Yet.”“She’s been careful,” I muttered. “Moving fast. Changing paths.”“Not fast enough now,” Kiran said grimly. “We’re running out of time. The bounty’s big enough that even wolves with half a brain are sniffing around for a shot at her.”My jaw clenched ti

Kalilah POVMara sat on a log across from me, arms resting on her knees, hair still damp from the rain earlier. The fire between us didn’t offer much warmth, but it kept the night from feeling empty. I’d been quiet for too long.“Mara,” I said.She looked up, instantly alert. “What’s wrong?”“I found out something. About Axel.”Her whole body went still. “What now? I already know he’s kidnapping people, but how worse can it get?”I swallowed hard. “He’s building alliances.”Her brow furrowed. “With whom?”“Other alphas. The ones no pack wanted. Exiled, disgraced, violent. The kind that were thrown out for a reason.”Mara straightened, her expression darkening. “You’re serious?”“Dead serious. He’s calling it something like The Reclaiming or Unity of the Wild. It’s a lie. A front. But they’re buying it.”“That sounds like some twisted cult propaganda.”“It is,” I muttered. “And it’s working. Wolves are falling in line. Not because they believe in him, but because they’ve got nothing le

Kalilah POVI froze.No. No, that couldn’t be—My breath hitched, heart slamming against my ribs as their scents hit me—two wolves approaching fast. The first was familiar, branded into me like blood in bone—my brother. The second was lighter, unfamiliar, wrapped in the warmth of someone who loved him.But that first scent?That scent had no right to exist anymore.It was my brother.But my brother was supposed to be dead. This was the concerning thing. It was throwing me for a loop, making me wish I could rip this blindfold off and see if he was there.I was a wolf, though. Scent was a pretty strong marker“You,” I whispered, fists trembling at my sides. “You’re dead.”“Kal—” His voice was too soft, too casual for the storm tearing through my chest.“Don’t,” I growled. “You died, Kiran. I mourned you. I buried you in my mind every day since—”“I had to,” he cut in, stepping forward. “If Axel knew I survived—”I shoved him back, the impact jarring through my arms. “You let me think yo

Damon POVIt had been a year.A year of silence.A year of chasing ghosts, of rerouting scouts, of sending trackers who always came back with almosts and maybes and sorrys.A year of pretending I still had control while my bond frayed further every day.So when my phone buzzed just after dusk, I didn’t move at first. Just stared at the name on the screen: Kiran.I answered on the first ring.“I found her,” he said.I knew he was going to find her.It was a given that he was going to find her, but the fact was that it was something to hear him say the words. Swallowing, I ran a hand through my thick hair.Fuck I can’t believe he found her. I was so happy that she was back. But how did she feel about me?This wasn’t the confident wolf I normally was, but this woman threw me for a fucking loop.The air in the room thinned.I stood slowly, chair scraping across the stone floor behind me. “Say it again.”“She’s alive, Damon,” Kiran said. “I found her.”For a second, I couldn’t speak. My th

Damon POVI had been meaning to talk to Caden about the situation. Everything was crazy, buzzing around my mind. The two of us did need to talk, so I could figure out what was going on with the battle with Axel. We were trying to find his men to make sure that we could end her life.There just hadn’t been a moment to stop and breathe, let alone sit down and go over the shifting pieces. Caden was doing his part—tracking leads, interrogating prisoners, coordinating scouts. We were all stretched thin, but he was the only one who knew the full scope of what we were walking into.And I needed that. I needed to know what he’d seen. What was he thinking? If he believed Axel had more allies hidden in the shadows—or worse, was planning an attack.Caden was leaning against the training wall, chewing through the last of an apple like it had personally offended him. The rest of the warriors had cleared out, the yard empty except for the two of us and the silence hanging between us.I broke it. “K
