HScales
Hatred came easily to Haryā.
As one of the Omaticaya clan's strongest young hunters, she had no patience for reckless boys, loudmouths or people who made her feel out of control. Unfortunately for her, Lo'ak Sully was all three.
The two had been locked in a rivalry filled with insults, bruised pride and arguments sharp enough to make everyone around them miserable ever since childhood. While Lo'ak thrived in chaos, Haryā kept her walls high and her emotions buried deep beneath silence and stubbornness.
Everything changed the day a Palulukan attacked during a simple game in the forest.
Separated from the others and forced to survive together, the two enemies became trapped within tangled vines, and a single accident changed them both forever.
Their kuru connected.
For one brief and terrifying moment, there are no barriers between them. No anger. No lies. No secrets. Only the emotions they were never meant to feel.
After that night, Lo'ak cannot stop thinking about her.
Haryā cannot forgive herself for letting him see what was hidden inside her heart.
As Lo'ak falls deeper in love, which becomes more painful over time, Haryā pushes him away, terrified of intimacy and vulnerability, and the frightening truth that she may love him too.
But some bonds do not disappear quietly.
Some people leave scars that even Eywa cannot heal.
