He rose and paced, dwelling on the carnage that would surely ensue if the Guardians remained vulnerable for long.

His thoughts darkened as he thought of leaving the Guardians defenseless to protect a woman he wasn't sure he should.

The fate of humanity was on his shoulders, with only an innocent woman between him and his ability to help the Guardians.

Something like this won't happen among the Guardians.

I'm surprised you're not interested in a ceasefire with me, since your Guardians are powerless, Jonny said.

I would agree not to slaughter your Guardians and declare a ceasefire for thirty days, if you will agree to help me root out the traitors in my own organization.

Damian and I spent months in Europe trying to figure out why our Guardians were disappearing here.

My … mate's house is sitting on the bodies of tens of thousands of Guardians.

Armed and ready, Jule Transported himself to the Guardians' local station, where he startled Rourk.

He wasn't sure what he sought, but he'd hoped to find some trace either of the Guardians the Other killed or the Other itself.

She couldn't help thinking about all the Guardians buried around her home and if they'd been as dedicated and noble as those she'd met.

What happens to the Guardians?

She suspected they were buried with the Guardians.

She'd make him proud and protect him and the rest of the Guardians from her father, even if destroying her father took her own life.

The Guardians deserved this after losing so many of them.

Following us here, reporting our movements to other Guardians? her father snapped, approaching her.

For the Gods and Guardians to come.

She sensed her father and the Guardians he went to meet on the other side of the hill.

He and his vamps had fought half the night and created the battlefield full of destruction before the dozen Guardians assigned to the safe house were overwhelmed.

The compound hummed with activity, from the gardens that served as a helipad to the teeming barracks and Guardians pacing the halIs.

His personal Guardians trailed at a respectful distance, out of earshot but close enough if something happened.

You would put me in the Guardians, your own flesh and blood?

Your father would've put you in the Guardians long ago, Jule corrected him.

She speaks highly of the Guardians and just as highly of you.

Jenn, the only daughter of a low-ranking noble's servant, repeated the mantra of the Guardians for days before taking the sacred oath.

She ran all the way to the Guardians' barracks and stopped, awed.

The barracks was loud with chatter from other new Guardians.

There are many Guardians assigned to this world already.

And then you will go forth and find the other Guardians.

She didn't know how to tell him she had no Guardian training yet and wouldn't even know where to find Guardians in the strange world.

The two Guardians assigned to the small adobe house in the middle of a Mexican village stood out front with Jenn.

The two large Hispanic Guardians glanced towards him when he entered the yard marked by a stone fence.

He'd thought the Guardians' loss of magic a curse until he started thinking about how the Others couldn't sense a Guardian that had no magic.

The Watchers blamed him for stripping the Guardians' magic when he froze time, but he began to wonder if they hadn't done it themselves.

Whoever did it, it was working in the Guardians' favor right now.

The two Guardians gave him a curious look.

She'd left them both to pursue a position among the Guardians, so she could start a new life in the mortal world.

Even if her position among the Guardians was among the highest levels, she still considered herself a slave to her duty.

You've done more harm here than anything one of my little Guardians could do to the immortal world.

From a lower immortal noble House, she'd been sent into the Guardians at a young age, a spare child to a House too poor to support her.

I signed up for the Guardians, and I was getting ready to leave for the mortal world.

She'd never even seen Damian prior to the Schism, when the Guardians exiled to the mortal world were a small band struggling to stay alive.

His vamps started stalking our Guardians this morning, and I lifted the ceasefire mandate.

Also, there was some sort of disturbance reported near the local Guardians' station.

Darian had never seen anything half as beautiful as the pale, exhausted warrior in oversized clothing she must've borrowed from the beefier Guardians who lived at the station.

He didn't turn them into vamps or kill them; he had an agreement with the local Guardians – charged with protecting humans from vampires like him – that he'd let them go.

The text came from the station chief of the local Guardians.

As part of the uneasy truce they had with Xander, they often used him for training for the new Guardians.

Most Guardians listened when their station chief, Gerry, told them the rules about not directly challenging Xander.

Female Guardians were very rare, and he recalled the last he faced with a mixture of respect and anger.

Xander made it clear who taught lessons to the Guardians who failed to respect the boundaries.

These people – Guardians or whatever – feared him.

There were people … Guardians? …wandering the compound and a corral nearby with a horse and donkey in it.

Sometimes I forget what it's like to be involuntarily inducted into the Guardians.

More concerned about the bigger picture, Xander interfered when necessary and spent the rest of this time toying with Jenn and the other Guardians.
