The Guardian Season 3 Novels & Stories

“Zidane Gould, I heard you were incredibly close to Hunter Dodd long ago. And it seems to ring true, huh?” Beads of cold sweat slid down from Zidane’s head as he questioned grimly, “Guardian Odele, Hunter’s tendons are all crushed. Why must you insist on killing him?” The middle-aged man with a crew cut was Guardian Odele, one of Eden Joy’s five guardians. “Hah, do you think Eden Joy is somewhere you can come and go as you wish?” Guardian Odele smirked unnervingly. “Since you’re here too, I’ll kill you as well lest others dare share similar thoughts!”

“I hope this is the end of that man with the dogs. He’s from the Hacks family and if anything bad happens to him, what are we going to do? “Besides, your grandfather will surely put the blame on us.” Kaze replied to her, “Don’t worry, Mom. I know what I’m doing. That man won’t die.” Little did everyone know, Agnes jinxed it. That night, after the members of the Guardians finished dinner, which was the dog stew, they went back to Corestone. They used to guard prominent figures, such as elders of the cabinet and ministers of different departments. Spending a few days to protect Kaze and his family was considered something new.

The guardian lifted its head, moonlight dripping from its jaws like liquid truth. THE CENTER OF THE TRIAD. THE ONE WHO LEADS THE BOND. THE ONE THE MARK ANSWERS TO FIRST. Arthur’s breath caught in his throat. Ash went still. My stomach dropped. The guardian’s next words cracked the world open: ONE OF YOU MUST BE NAMED THE HEART OF THE TRIAD… OR THE BOND WILL BREAK. The ground trembled beneath us. Cracks spread like veins across the chamber floor. Ash gasped, clutching his chest. Arthur cursed under his breath.

They could not help him even if they wanted to. The leader said grimly, “Our job is to protect you. Get Mr. Quinn out of here!” One of the guards hauled Stephen up and ran. The killers chased after them. Hugo was shot in his abdomen and could no longer get up. Watching their retreating backs, he struggled to lift his phone and called Stephen once again.

You were strong! "The first test...survived. But it's only the beginning, Moonbound," Thorne said with a smile. Draven looked at me with his dark blue eyes and said, "Moonbound, the guardian watches and judges every heartbeat. The next test will test your bonds... and your deepest fears." Even though I still had some doubts, I clenched my hands and kept my heart steady. Sparks of red, silver, black, and crimson lit up the forest, letting us know that we had won, but the guardian's presence kept me reminded that the trials were far from over.

"I pay you triple what my mother is paying. You tell her the investigation yielded nothing of interest. And we both move on with our lives." Wendell was quiet for a moment, clearly calculating. "Your mother is a powerful woman. If she finds out I took money to bury an investigation…" "She won't find out," Leonard said. "Because there will be nothing to find. As far as anyone knows, you conducted a thorough investigation and came up empty. It happens." "Why?" Wendell asked suddenly. "Why does this security guard matter so much to you that you'd risk your relationship with your mother to protect him?"

As if sensing my need, he started speaking before I could ask. “I’m almost in,” he hissed, his voice tight as he struggled to break through their code barrier. “Their new firewall is better than their last one. Their new engineer is good. Very good.” He acknowledged respectfully. “Too bad for them, I’m better.” A moment later, one of the government drones took a nose dive, crashing at the feet of the first guard. Josh’s gleeful chuckle was followed by the sound of another drone crashing down to earth. Not waiting for an invitation, I reached out and took the first guard from my hiding place, the sound of him hitting the ground masked by the shattering sound of a drone hitting a tree.

And worse, someone close was feeding him out like scraps. His Empire, which was strong, steel and untouchable suddenly felt like a child's play. “Adrien.” Isabella’s voice was steady, but her eyes weren’t. She stood in the doorway, holding her phone tight, and then watching him like she was already counting the damage “Security’s sweeping every floor. The burner’s locked down but IT’s already digging. We’ll have a name soon.” “Soon’s useless,” Adrien bit out, his voice low and venom-laced. He stalked to the window, the city stretched calm and cruel outside, glittering like it wanted to mock him.

CHAPTER 127 — The Missing Return The council chamber was still heavy with silence when the guards burst through the doors. “General Rowan,” the first guard said, breath unsteady. “Someone is at the gate. You need to come now.” Rowan’s head snapped up. “Who.” The guard swallowed. “A scout. We think he is from Team Three.” Azeriel moved before Rowan could speak. “Get us there.” They rushed out of the chamber, Lyra close behind them. The air outside was cold but Rowan barely felt it. Her steps hit the ground fast as they crossed the courtyard toward the main gates.

Did she forget something? “Thank you Lauren, for coming on such a short notice.” Dominic took the opportunity to show his gratitude. He stood up and bowed his head a bit. She couldn't see him with her back still facing the office. Lauren slowly turned with a smile and nodded lighly before her eyes swiftly shifted to Judith. “Thank you for watching over the elemental so far, Genna.” Judith's name is Genna? What's going on? I stared at them in confusion. “Genna, the legendary guardian of the elemental!?” Jonathan exclaimed. His eyes widened in shock.
