The Guardians

What if saving the world meant choosing what to abandon?The gods are awakening.But not all of them have risen.Power is returning-uneven, uncontained, already beginning to divide those who carry it.What was once whole is now fragmented, reshaping itself in ways they do not yet understand. Not all of it will be gentle.Mereh is no longer willing to remain what he was.Ankou finds himself no longer standing where he once did.Aridanos is on the edge of something that was never meant to be his.Tsunala holds more than even she realises.What binds them is no longer simple-and may not survive what they are becoming.Beyond them, Selene has already begun to move.The world is shifting-quietly, violently-toward something it cannot yet name.Not salvation.Not ruin.A reckoning.Because to save something means deciding what you are willing to abandon.For readers drawn to dark romantasy rooted in character, tension, and emotional consequence-The Guardians deepens the Abandoned Gods series.
