Guiding Desire
“I feel very possessive when it comes to you. I have no right to, but I do. You became mine when I touched you. And I want you to be mine. Of your own free will. Do you understand, kitten?”
In a world where Guardians are superpowered humans, Conduits must help them manage their powers to prevent them from self-destroying. Guardians and Conduits live apart from regular humans, royalty in a society run according to rank and AI reasoning.
Orrey grew up thinking he was a regular human, but when Guardian Senlas accidentally touches him, he imprints on Orrey, dashing all notions of a normal life Orrey wanted to dedicate to making the city he loves safer for everyone.
Now, Orrey has to come to terms with the fact that he is a Conduit, and Senlas’s, on top of that. The Guardian is kind and caring, yet Orrey’s changed status shoves him into a reality he wasn’t prepared for. It will have him and Senlas and their found family of a team weather dangers from inside the city walls and from outside them, all while learning to rely on each other.

Guiding Purpose
On their way back to the safety of the city walls, Orrey and Senlas grow to rely on one another—and on their team. But there is still danger out to get them and to destroy bonds so recently forged.
While trust within the group deepens, other secrets come to light, and Orrey, Senlas, and the team slowly realize that they just might be the best people to keep citizens safe.

Guiding Reason
“We are like a system of two suns, you and I, and I don’t want to rob you of your gravity.”
Argentea’s Team Three is dealing with the aftermath of the attack on Starlit Stage, and none of them has more to deal with than Coldis.
For years, Coldis has worked to build his team and protect the Guardians in it, his family. Now, after Hyran imprinted on Coldis during the attack, everything might change. What that change will bring, none of them know, but they will have to figure it out soon so they can rebuild what was broken after the attack and guard against another one. After all, Team Three has reason to suspect that the threat to the cities has not been dealt with…
Guiding Reason contains brief mentions of violence.
