The Shadow Guard

Kydence, despite being visually impaired, discovered that she and her siblings are actually Shadow wolves, a special breed chosen by the Moon Goddess to be powerful protectors for all shifters. Initially, her parents, especially her father and uncle, were concerned about her developing Shadow abilities, wondering why the Goddess would make her a Shadow Warrior. However, Kydence was determined to be self-reliant and prove that she wasn't helpless because of her blindness. With her heightened senses of smell, hearing, taste, and touch, she convinced her mother to reluctantly allow her to train, under the condition that her safety would be strictly monitored. Dakota, a nineteen-year-old Beta in the BlackPaw pack, known for being Drake BlackPaw's younger brother, had experienced heartbreak when his mate broke off their relationship. A year later, he and his brother, along with their lead warrior, sought to join the Shadow Mountain pack's training program in hopes of finding a new path. Intriguingly, Dakota's wolf voice in Kydence's mind kept repeating, "Mate, mate, mate," suggesting a possible connection. Kydence doubts that she'll find a mate who accepts her as a blind shifter, burdened by past insecurities. But could she let go of her fears and embrace the love that her potential second chance mate offers? With the Moon Goddess's blessing and a significant role in their future, Kydence wonders if she's ready to open herself up to love and trust.
