She is everything I never knew I needed—small, terrified, and undeniably mine.
I am the guardian of the cathedral, a creature of stone bound to protect what remains of a forgotten past. I never imagined I would crave anything beyond my solitary existence. But then she came, drawn by fate, her blood awakening the bond between us. Now, every instinct in me screams to claim her, to protect her from all dangers—even herself.
A fragile, determined human seeking restoration work, unaware she’s awakening something much darker than the cathedral’s history. She’s my fated mate—though she doesn’t know it yet. Her warmth is a beacon, her touch a promise of life I never thought I’d have.
I want her. I crave her light like the shadows crave the dawn. But can she love a monster bound by stone and duty? Or will my darkness consume her too?
A steamy romance where a fierce guardian meets his match in a human woman destined to shatter his cold exterior.
