> — Councilor Dren Valek, Voice of the Eastern Serpent Gasps rippled through the courtyard like a wave. The delta girl near the fountain whispered loudly enough for everyone to hear, “They’re escalating to the Greater Council? That’s… that’s *war* on precedent!” Her friend, an omega with braided hair, clutched her arm. “If they win, no omega chooses again. Ever.”

Hunter ordered. “I don’t take orders from a Gamma. I am Alpha Daniel of the Orangewood Pack. The female you are detaining is my mate and I demand that you release her NOW!” He demanded. “Sorry dude,” Hunter snorted, “but your Alpha command and voice don’t work on me, I am Alpha blood, and you are NOT my Alpha.” He smirked making KC laugh. “I will let her go but you and her will be escorted from here and are to NEVER to return. If you should need to return you will NOT bring that thing with you.” Connor warned. “And don’t think I don’t remember who you are.” He said.

Darcy nestled in Kaze’s embrace with a sweet smile. Kaze did not care who he faced off with. He would stand in front of Darcy in protection against anybody who picked on her. Kaze did not hesitate to attack even the heir of the Butterworth Queens. In contrast, Greg, who acted high and mighty before, became a coward. Conan’s face hung back from the impact. It took a while before he got a grip on himself. “Did you just hit me?”

Augustus cried loudly at this time. “Father, no!” Selena exclaimed, trying to stop Augustus. There were six God Rank guardians on the opposite side, so he could not win against all of them. If he went up, he would only die. “Uncle Augustus,” Raymond also shouted nervously. However, Augustus ignored the two of them. He flew over directly, stopped in the middle of the six God Rank guardians, and stared at one of the guardians with a mask. “Any last words? You can tell me, but I won't help you realize it,” the guardian who was being stared at by Augustus said.

The tattooed man kicked again, doubling me over as his foot connected with my stomach. "Any last words?" He sneered, leaning over me. I forced my gaze up, meeting his eyes. He grinned, warping the sun tattoo into an odd shape on his cheek. "Well?" I opened my mouth, about to cuss at him when he fell forward, covering me in a splatter of blood. I gasped. I'd thought the pain from him kicking me was bad, but the pain of his dead weight bearing down on my beaten body had me balancing the edge of consciousness. I looked up, trying to force the engulfing black away and met pale blue eyes. It seemed my guardian wasn't just a pretty face.

Shortly after the pack meeting, Alpha Connor called me, my parents, Drew, Sam and Talia to his office to meet with the council. I guess my role as protector has officially begun. It is a little bittersweet. Every protector before me started this journey with their mates. The mate bound strengthens us and enhances our powers. We can also share our strength and gain strength from our fated mates. That’s one reason the moon goddess grants the protectors a second chance mate, if they are rejected. All the years that I heard about being the protector and how important mates were, I never thought I would be the one being rejected and have to start this journey alone. Well, not really alone. I will

He paused for a while, then continued to speak. "I work for an organization called the GOH,Guardians of the Hex. We fight all sort of bad, human and non human. We use advanced technology and combat to fight our enemies" he emphasized. Confusion struck me.I didn't know how to react. I felt proud of my father, I also felt angry at him for abandoning his family to save the world. As I lifted my gaze, I saw my father looking back at me, I smiled, hoping he could not see the anger within me as I was embarrassed to show my true feelings to people I hadn’t known that long.

I had gotten used to solving normal human problem’s,but never had I ever had to solve a paranormal problem,a guardian deals with odd cases. Mr Phenyo had made it clear before me and the other initiates signed a work contract to become guardians,he said that the position of a guardian or an agent was not simple,nor safe.He also emphasized that some of his former colleagues had to be admitted to a mental institution for mental health illness due to coming in contact with non human species. “You need to be prepared for anything.

"Okay, you’re approaching the vault antechamber. Kael says there’s a Guardian." Ethan slowed. He rounded the corner. Standing in front of the massive circular vault door was a golem. It was eight feet tall, made of enchanted bronze, holding a halberd that crackled with electricity. "It’s a Construct," Ethan whispered. "If I fight it, the vibrations will trigger the alarm." "Don't fight it," Emily said quickly. "It’s programmed to recognize Council signatures. I found the override code in the Evans archives—Ryan’s father was on the security committee."

"You were never trying to dismantle them. You were—" "I am The Council," Connor corrected. "The real one. The organization that exists beneath the forty-seven members you arrested, beneath the phoenix protocol Victoria thought she was leading, beneath even Richard's deep game. I'm the forty-eighth member. The one nobody knew about because I was recruited at fifteen when my family died, groomed for thirty years to be the failsafe against failsafes. And now—finally—I get to complete my mission: eliminate the Westbrook line permanently and rebuild The Council without Richard's sabotage protocols embedded in every operation."
