Tilly has always known where her strengths lie, and fighting? Well, it’s not one of them. Her family is ashamed of her and as a way to get rid of her they ship her off to Warrior Elite camp after a rogue attack leaves her blind. Tilly knows her fate has her painted as a rogue and it is only a matter of time before she flunks out of training. But she finds something to work hard for when starts falling for the Alpha she can never have, even if he is making her promises for a better future. Onyx doesn’t play games, and he mostly certainly does not take risks. That is until the smartmouthed, blind warrior literally stumbles into his warrior elite camp. Her quick wit and bold honesty awakened a part of him he didn’t think existed. Only one small problem…She is an awful warrior and he can only be with the best. Yet when his gamma lays down a bet, Onyx finds himself taking a gamble he isn’t quite sure how to handle. Especially when it lands him a rejection from his mate…

Chapter 1: Brains

~Tilly POV~“Matilda May. Third born of the top warriors in the pack, Greta and Harold, is cordially requested to train at the Warriors Elite at the bidding of Alpha Jeremiah of the Cursed Moon Pack.” My younger brother, Beckham, reads aloud in awe. He pauses for dramatic effect and I groan, covering my head with the blanket on my bed.“She is to report to the main road with only one piece of luggage, no later than ten the night of June sixth. If Ms. May is late, we will retrieve her, willing or not, to fulfill her duty to her pack and the whole of the werewolf cities collaborations,” he continues, his expressive voice growing more grim with every line.My life hasn’t been terrible. Honestly, it’s pretty okay. I have absent parents I disappoint on a daily basis, but my best friend is killer and my younger brother is the sweetest person ever. My two older brothers are assholes, but that’s not reserved exclusively for me. That’s just their personality trait. I’m about eighty percent sur

Awesome, underrated book. So happy I took a chance on this. Well plotted storyline, with crazy twists, great humor, drama, action, gore & steamy heat. Well developed characters. Minimal typos so still easy reading flow. Love how Tilly has so much crazy sassiness despite how dark done parts became.

Chapter 2: In the Dark

Chapter 2:The rogue stares at me for a long second before surging forward. I squeal in fear as I narrowly dodge his clawing hands. The man growls in annoyance as I move around the kitchen table, doing my best to keep the large wooden furniture between us. Beckham moves to make his way to me but the other man jumps in front of him, blocking not only his way but my view.-Rogue attack!- I shoot through the mind link to anyone who will listen and hope someone comes to aid us.I am useless as the guy wanting to kill me tosses the table to the side and makes his way to me. I sprint toward the asshole who has his hand on my baby brother’s neck as he pummels Beckham in the face. In fury, I drop my shoulder and throw my whole body into the man’s spine, relishing the yelp of pain it elicits. My victory is short-lived when the guy I had been running from yanks me back by my ponytail. He then takes hold of my throat and lifts me into the air, holding me up high. I gasp for air, clawing at his

Chapter 3: Making Plans

“Til…” Anna’s voice whispers, a gentle shaking on my upper arm. “Mmm?” I groan as I stretch and ease my chair back up.“We are here. You feeling okay enough to hop out?” She asks me gently. “Yeah, yeah. I’m good.” I open my eyelids, resisting the urge to groan in frustration, my eyes still unwilling to do what I want them to. Which seems like a simple enough task. Is it hard to want them to just freaking work? Anna must sense my annoyance as she takes my hand and gives it a gentle squeeze. “It’s only been a few hours. It could take a few days to fully come back. Be patient.” She mutters as I hear the click of her door opening and her warm hand leaves mine. Muffled voices talk to my right and with a shaky breath, I fumble for the handle and push the door open. My fingers lightly trace the window to the top of the car door as I stand and hold on. Shit, my legs are wobbly and my back stiff as a board. “Shit, sorry alpha.” A gruff, sleepy voice says. “I forgot to mention that I gave t

Chapter 4: Meeting Bill

I have no idea what an ungodly hour it is when Anna wakes me up and throws clothes at my face. Not that it matters when you are struggling to see again every time of day looks and feels the same. Shit, I’m just perpetually tired of being in this never ending darkness.“What time is it?” I ask, feeling around the bra in my hands to make sure I put it on right. “Time for training.” She says. “Oh, good, so it’s early as shit and no one will even notice if I sleep through the speech. I am certain we will get in the beginning.”Anna sighs heavily, intentionally trying to make it so I can hear her disapproval of that plan of mine. Her lithe feet pad across the room and I feel her hands tangling in my hair as she throws up my unruly mess into a bun. “I can do my hair.” I grumble and she snorts. “You could hardly do it when you had your eyesight.” “Rude.” I mumble, refusing to admit she is completely right. “Speaking of rude…” her tone changes and I know I am about to get her alpha tone

Chapter 5: A bet

*Onyx POV*Tic glowers at Bill, who seems completely unphased by the heat directed his way. Not that he ever is. In fact, it takes a lot to get to Bill. Unless you are a blind girl with a smart mouth, it would seem. He lasted only thirty minutes with the smart mouthed woman named Tilly. Now Tic and I get to be graced with his shitty attitude for the duration of this meeting.Day one of training is over, as is customary. We are dividing the fighters up based on capabilities. There are zero surprises in who the top five are. Anna, Harriet, Flint, Peter and Lux. All five have excellent form, powerful strikes and their own style. Of those five, only two are humble. Anna and Flint.I understand Flint’s humility. He comes from a lower-ranking family in a large pack. There is no doubt that he got his skill from nothing other than hard work and dedication. Anna, however, is a natural and has every right to be a cocky warrior. Yet, she is considerate and quiet when she fights. She weighs her o

Chapter 6: Hearing

“Listen,” I instruct Tilly as we stand just within the confines of the woods. “Can you tell where we are?”“We are near the woods?” She responds. I look around and feel a sliver of defeat. Near the woods? Trees and wild woodland creatures engulf us. The best she can give me is a guess?“Near or in the woods?” I push, needing her to really try. “In the woods, I suppose. I mean, I can hear animals all around me,” she responds with a shrug. Tilly’s nose crinkles in thought and a smile finds my lips as I try to focus on the task at hand and fail. Her face is a map of tiny little imperfections. Each freckle, every wrinkle when she moves her lips seems to make me like her more, each one a reason I should take another risk for the first time in my life.“So, what now? I just stand and listen to animals for the next eight hours?” She asks with a frustrated huff. I chuckle, stepping close to her and lean down, my nose brushing her earlobe.“Now we train.” I whisper huskily before moving away,

Chapter 7: Anna Snaps

*Tilly POV* “Wait…so when did your eyesight come back?” Anna asks me excitedly, and I groan in frustration. “It’s not back, Anna. I can see specks of light and the occasional dark blob.” I insist, walking alongside her toward the training center. As if on cue, my feet collide with something and I stumble forward. Anna grabs my biceps and steadies me. “Watch where you are going,” an angry voice shouts, and Anna’s grip grows tighter on my arm. “You’re the one with working eyes, asshole. How about you use them instead of blaming the blind girl?” “Maybe she shouldn’t be in the way.” A feminine voice says. Anna and I don’t have a second to respond when there is a heavy sigh and everyone falls silent. “Cassie, you’re being a catty bitch for no reason. If you spent more time training and less time being jealous about who the Alpha spends time with, you might actually improve.” Another voice cuts in. Anna’s clinging to my arm and I can only assume she is wearing her excited face. The

Chapter 8: Harriet

“What the hell!” I squeal out as my knee glances off a rock on the way down. My cheek bounces off the dust covered ground and I groan in frustration and pain. I can sense someone is there, watching me, but no one speaks or offers me aid, so I push myself up. A foot presses in the center of my back, pushing me down to the ground again, this time pinning me. I can feel the vibrations of feet coming toward me, multiple sets just before the kicks land. One after another raining down on my body as I try like hell to fight against the foot holding me flat. My instincts are screaming at me to protect my vital organs. Curl into a damn ball, anything to lessen the places they can hurt me. My arms fly over my head as the tears fall, wetting the ground beneath my cheek as I accept that there is nothing I can do.I steel my resolve, promising not to cry out loud or make a peep. There is no way in hell I will allow them that satisfaction. My body jolts with every blow, each hit taking me further

Chapter 9: Complications

*Onyx POV*Tilly swallows roughly before wiping the shock off her face and snapping her jaw shut. She gives me a tight smile and a soft chuckle.“I’m just frustrated with my lack of progress…” she lies and it just fuels my rage. The second I saw her dirt laden clothes, I knew something was off. Never mind the best warrior that is locked up in her dorm pacing a new trail into the tile flooring, I can deal with Anna later. But Tilly?I had to see her, had to know she was ok after what went down. I needed to know that she hadn’t run off and left. It’s not been nearly a week of training and I can’t stand being away from her. Who knows what shit she will say or the scenario she will land herself in? And the way she is looking right now, it’s obvious I was right to worry. Tilly is a downright beautiful mess.“It’s obvious you are still blind if you think that tears on your cheek are the only thing off with your appearance.”“I- uh-” she stutters and searches for Harriet, a look of pleading

Chapter 10: Crush

*Tilly POV*The moment I open the door, Anna yanks me into her arms, squeezing with more strength than she realizes. I feign a choking sound and she chuckles into my hair, but she doesn’t release me.“Anna…” I complain as I try to wiggle out of her embrace before I notice the small shake in her hold. My brows furrow in confusion as I try to understand why she is shaking. Is it fear or anger? Maybe she is saying goodbye because she thinks she is going to get kicked out.“They won’t kick you out.” I assure her, and she sniffles before finally letting me go. Air rushes back into my lungs in a sharp inhale.“You think I care about that?”“Then why are you crying?”“What? I am not.” She says, though she sniffles again. I place my hands on my hips and tilt my head like I am a mother seeing right through her teenage daughter’s lies.“What is wrong?” I ask as I reach out and she places her hand in mine.“You. How they treat you. How they are letting everyone treat you. Til,”I put my hand up
