Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! You are correct in your assumption to assume that the grandmother was of no relation to Jake. The nightmares are actual memories. Jake was present when his parents were attacked. As for how he escaped, that will be revealed in later chapters. Once you are introduced to the world of night stalker and guardian in later chapters certain things will fall into place sooner rather than later. I will tell you that Jake has a very hard road ahead of him. He has an enormous amount of power at his disposal, but until he learns how to control that power it is more of a hindrance rather than a help. -Holly

The wet sand was cool against the soles of my feet as I stood next to the water's edge. There was not a cloud on the horizon. The warm rays of the sun beat down on my bare back, causing the skin of my shoulders to tingle pleasantly, and the coastal winds whipped my dark hair into my eyes. Farther up the beach, children played by the shoreline with their parents near them. The faint sounds of their laughter drifted pass my ears as I watched them stomp a sandcastle into oblivion. The two boys rem

The summer before his senior year of high school, Jake is thrust into a dangerous world he had no idea even existed. Before his inheritance the only things Jake was overly concerned with was his strange dreams, and figuring out how to deal with being in love with his best friend. Now, saddled with a heritage that makes him the sole heir to both the Guardian and Night Stalker kingdoms, Jake learns that not everything is black and white, and the people he can trust are few and far in between.

As far as everyone knows Jordan is straight. At least that is what Jordan wishes everyone to think. If I ever finish Always there is a rough plan for a sequel that centers on Jordan and possibly David, but nothing is set in stone. I really need to rewrite Always. David obviously has a thing for Drew's little brother, but Jordan really isn't David's biggest fan. If I do write the sequel then it would be a slow burn type thing if I even got them together at all.

Glad to hear you like it Sarapf. I'll finish the next chapter eventually.

David has certainly had his share of horrible stuff, but he hasn't made the best decisions either and he knows that. David is actually one of my favorite characters despite all of his faults. I think everyone is nervous about when Tyler's killer is going to strike. The killer is smart and knows how to bide their time. They are waiting for a moment when the group is vulnerable, and you are right; absolutely no one is safe. I will try to get the next chapter up sooner, but I refuse to jinx myself. Honestly, there are not going to be many more chapters and to me that is scary, but I promise to post more than twice this year. Thanks for your review as always, Lisa! You always make my day.

Yeah, David was an ass, but he did get the short end of the stick. Hopefully everyone will get what is coming to them.

Ms. Jacobs called her class to order, and Jeff, Drew, and Luke took their seats. Luke took out his sketch book, and began working on his latest sketch of Drew while Ms. Jacobs began lecturing the class on Classical Greece. Luke was working on the shading of Drew’s jaw when Ms. Jacobs called his name. “Mr. McGowan, since you absolutely love to listen to my lectures, when were the Olympic Games founded?” Ms. Jacobs asked with her hands on her hips. Luke looked up from his sketch trying not to l

The next chapter will be up really soon. My editors and I have been working on it, but it has been a slow process since we are all super busy. Don't worry though it will get posted and after that there will only be a few more chapters.

I'm glad to hear you like it

I actually got a few requests to continue the story, so I have a few chapter in production at the moment. When they will get finished is another matter lol. I do know that I will not start posting until I finish the entire story. It will be on the short side though. Thank you for your review!
