Guardians of the Five Rubies - La série

Vampires are born, not made. Can one night change everything? At a nightclub called Temptations, Kaden, the Saak’da or future ruler of a race living on Earth secretly for generations, is trying to stop a massacre from happening. He’s had a tip that a small disgruntled faction of his people plan an attack that night that will result in a great loss of human life. Kaden is focused, disciplined, and determined to protect the humans who are ignorant to his people’s presence. But when he prevents a tragic accident from happening, one that would have been fatal to the little bus-boy, Matty, he sets a powerful force into motion. Kaden broke the rules about not interfering in human lives because one touch from Matty convinced him that Matty was his fated blood-angel, and that the bond between them would last for the rest of his very long life. Matty can’t believe his good fortune when a sex-god like Kaden D’Marco wants to take him home. Matty is just a nobody, abandoned and abused as a child, bullied and picked on by his boss at the club. He washes dirty glasses for a living, and he’s never attracted the attention of a man like Kaden. Kaden has waited a long time for his fated one, but can a man who feeds on human blood find happiness with someone who faints at the sight of it? Can he convince this scared young man to trade a taste of his blood for a love that will last a thousand years and bring him happiness and gifts that he can’t even imagine?

Alek has spent all his life living in his twin brothers’ shadows. He was there to help Kaden when Davv’id betrayed their family and their race, and he could always be relied on to keep Kaden’s business empire running smoothly. It was only when his brother’s personal life started interfering in his own playboy lifestyle that things started to get too complicated. When things go badly wrong at Alex's father’s funeral, and Matty suddenly goes into labor with Kaden’s baby, Alek and Kaden panic and race to get help. When they’re pulled over for speeding by a big, handsome and very stubborn traffic cop named Max, Alek fears the worst, but Max turns out to be literally a lifesaver. To his horror, Alek is unable to compel the cop to forget all he has seen and realizes that can mean only one thing. The handsome, gruff, and very straight cop must be Alek’s true mate. Can a cop who says he’s straight overcome his distrust and distaste for a gorgeous vampire and fall in love with him? And can Alek put aside his own bitterness and feelings of betrayal for his older brother Davv’id so the brothers can save the world from the evil force that’s threatening them all? If Alek and Max can stop arguing long enough to listen to each other, they might realize that words are unnecessary when their hearts beat out a rhythm only they can hear.

Davv’id has finally begun to redeem himself in the eyes of his brothers after killing Amariska and ending her evil reign, and he’s prepared for his life to return to something approaching normal again. He wants his brother Alek to finally forgive him, and he needs to take his rightful place in the family hierarchy beside Kaden. He’s ready to do all these things when he learns of a young human, once enslaved and enthralled by Amariska, who prefers to commit suicide rather than be rehabilitated. Davv’id goes to see him and is amazed when the beautiful young man drops to his knees in front of him and calls him his Master. If that weren’t bad enough, Davv’id realizes once he touches the boy that he is somehow his one, true mate. He has to save him, but what Davv’id doesn’t know is that Theo is actually a missing rock star with an even deeper secret, one that will rock the vampires’ world to its foundations and make Davv’id question everything he thought he knew about himself. As secrets are revealed, Davv’id has to overcome Theo’s feelings of mistrust, and just when happiness is in his grasp, Theo is taken again by an old enemy who wants to destroy everything that Davv’id holds dear. Davv’id’s only choice is to turn his back on his brothers and betray them in the worst possible way in order to save the man he loves.
