    About this ebook

    The final book in the Guardians novella series.

     

    The idea of joining a superhero team had never been all that enticing to me. Until I met Ellie and the others. To say they were a disaster was putting it lightly. The three of them tried, I would give them that.

     

    But man, they were crap at being a functional team.

     

    Sure, they got the job done, but that didn't mean it was done well.

     

    A team was supposed to work together, and from what I could gather, these girls were nearly incapable of doing so due to a mixture of ego and stubbornness.

    Lucky for them, they have me now, and it's time to step out of the shadows.

     

    The world might not be ready for Supers, but we're here.

     

    And it's time we reclaimed the lives stolen from us.

     

    Please note: Each installment in the Guardians series is approximately 12k words; these books are meant to be quick, action-packed reads.

      Chapter One

      The idea of joining a superhero team had never been all that enticing to me. Until I met Ellie and the others. To say they were a disaster was putting it lightly. The three of them tried, I would give them that.

      But man, they were crap at being a functional team.

      Sure, they got the job done, but that didn't mean it was done well.

      A team was supposed to work together, and from what I could gather, these girls were nearly incapable of doing so due to a mixture of ego and stubbornness. Although, to be fair, the young fire girl seemed to be thrown into the mix without much warning. I did like her, though.

      Her powers admittedly scarred the crap out of me, but I liked her.

      She reminded me of myself when I was younger. The world of magic and powers was fascinating back then. The idea of that kind of power existing in reality? It was exciting. Until it became a necessary tool to survive.

      Being a Super was not what it was cracked up to be, unfortunately.

      Most of the world hated us and wanted us dead. All I wanted to do was live out my life in a remote area and run an animal sanctuary. Simple enough. But a simple life was not a life for a Super. It seemed I was destined to suffer.

      Ruby, a voice sounded from behind me. I turned to find Arabella jogging toward me with a bag in one hand and a tablet in the other. Dawson assures me you've been given a thorough tour, so I wanted to give you some clean clothes and a tablet.

      I glanced down at the clothes in her hand and my eyes nearly bulged as I took in the royal blue leather ensemble. It wasn’t that it was unappealing. I quite liked it, honestly, but I failed to see how it would be useful in battle. Even though I used magic to fight, there were still the occasional instances in which I did enjoy hand-to-hand combat. There was just something refreshing about being able to take down a lowlife with my body.

      It was even more powerful than magic.

      And it was just more visually appealing.

      It’s a lot more flexible than you’d imagine, she assured me.

      Why do I get the feeling you’re used to persuading others to embrace leather uniforms? I stifled a laugh as I took the clothes from her hand. I couldn’t deny the blue was a flattering shade, at least. And honestly? I was in dire need of something clean to slip into.

      Because I seem to be the only one here with a sense of fashion, she teased.

      While it was safe to say I hadn’t really gotten a chance to know the others all too well just yet, there was no denying there was something mysterious about Arabella. From what I could gather, she was reckless, and at times, quite arrogant. But I was sure there was more to her than she liked to showcase.

      After all, why would she willingly take in a group of misfits? It was bad enough
