She doesn't want to be a Guardian... not again.

Five years after her beloved's murder, twenty-six-year-old Blair Nelson from the FBI's Fifth Division vowed to never become a Guardian again. Her supervisor lieutenant sends her down to Santa Fe, New Mexico to assist the Division of the Tenth with their ongoing case - keeping watch of their non-human witness who may be a suspect of a murder; the same witness who may have killed Blair's beloved. Blair meets one on one with a woodland elf, Altin, who has been in holding at the Division of the Tenth. She learns that she must be a Guardian to Altin after he has been severely injured from a traitorous elf. Upset that she is Guardian once again, her heart has yet betrayed her for wanting to be closer to Altin. Can Blair let the past go and become a Guardian for Altin or will she let herself go and fail everyone; including herself?

The Guardian - Blair

The coldness from Altin’s icy-colored eyes focus on Blair, not removing his gaze from her. His ashed-colored skin rivaled Salan’s earthy-toned skin. His long, messy white hair did not conceal the scar of a long diagonal mark on his face, and another - a small vertical cut on his upper lip. He wore a loose, woven white shirt, showing off his chest muscles, and deep brown pants.
