Shadow Guardian Ostiarius has no purpose. For millennia his kind protected the barrier between the worlds of the earthlings and the supernatural. When the wall fell during the Great Bleed his life became all but forfeit, destined to wander the earth alone, year cycle after year cycle. Until he meets the human woman Ellery. This is a steamy, insta-love monster romance short story with adult language, special appendages, and "open door" scenes.
