Shadow is one of the three original Guardians left. While he's got brains, he's not much of a fighter. When he discovers an encrypted code while searching for clues about one of his own-another Guardian-he learns of Noble-bred females being taken and disappearing, never to be seen again. When he sees a video on his computer of two women taken from their homes,
he decides it's time to put a stop to it.
Janecka Ashford, Noble born, was different from any other bloodmate. She can't be matched up with just anyone because of her special blood, and that causes a big problem in a world where bonds between a man and woman are arranged.
Because of her unique blood, she should've been put to death after birth, but her mother managed to save her life, a decision that Janecka regrets. and touched by a man who has opened the door to her impending death. Asking for help from the one man who helped her before is the only thing that can save her life, but who can save her from the instant attraction to this man-Shadow
-Guardian? Shadow never thought he'd bond with anyone, let alone with a
Noble female. But as Shadow's love for Janecka grows, he's compelled to deal with changes in his own life, but also with one particular threat-a man bent on taking Janecka's life. Bonded with a Noble comes with twists and turns, and when new blood sheds pure blood, it appears a whole new war might break out between the Guardians and Nobles.
