THE GUARDIAN
A forest hides stolen children.
A fallen angel hides a terrible secret.
And one Guardian stands between them and eternal darkness.
When children begin vanishing without a trace, Olivia—one of Heaven’s last true Guardians—is sent into a cursed forest where something far older than evil is waiting. Following the pull of a mysterious Vessel, she discovers a forgotten cabin, a demon’s bargain, and a horrifying truth no one was meant to uncover.
The missing children haven’t been killed.
They’ve been transformed.
Trapped inside lifeless dolls, their souls are being harvested by a demon who trades in innocence—and a fallen Guardian who sold them out in exchange for her own freedom.
As Olivia races to break the spell and save the children, she must outwit forces that don’t play by human rules. Every step brings her closer to a choice that could cost her everything… including her soul.
The Guardian is a dark, fast-paced supernatural thriller in The Dark Crossroads Collection, a series of haunting stories where angels fall, demons bargain, and every choice carries a terrible price.
Perfect for readers who love eerie folklore, supernatural suspense, and stories that stay with you long after the final page.
Some doors should never be opened.
Some bargains should never be made.
And some souls are never meant to be lost.
Genre: Fantasy
