There is a Balance to all things, and it must be maintained. That work falls to the Guardians - stewards of fate, shaping our world from the inside. Always watching. Always adjusting. Always bleeding.
Sol has guarded humanity for centuries, and he hasn't wanted anything since the day his twin died. Now the Balance has bound him to a single repeating day in a small seaside town, circling a baker with a metal bat behind her counter and storm-blue eyes he's seen in dreams. Each dawn, the town resets. Rae doesn't - his power shields her, making her the only soul awake inside the loop with him.
Rae rebuilt her life from wreckage once already. She knows better than to trust the beautiful stranger her repeating day arrived with. But he keeps the tea ready before she asks. He keeps his distance like a promise. And every day they keep is borrowed - because when the mission ends, the rules say her memory of all of it goes. Including him.
The rules against loving a human are absolute. Sol wrote them himself. But the day that keeps repeating is hiding a reason, shadows are gathering at its edges, and this is a story of humans who - forged by pain, never defined by it - lend their strength to the beings meant to save us all.
Thomas was strong enough.
Rae was.
Ben was.
Are you?
