BOOK THREE — THE BLACK GLASS
THE END OF THE GUARDIANS
An Epic Dark Supernatural Romance of Forbidden Love, Ancient Evil, and the Final Guardian
“The curse ends with her blood—or the world ends with it.”
“He was willing to die for her. She was willing to destroy everything to save him.”
“The last Guardian must choose between immortality and the man she loves.”
SYNOPSIS
The ancient entity beneath Blackwater Lake has awakened.
And Blackwater Hollow is dying.
The town has been cut off from the outside world. The supernatural boundary surrounding Blackwater Hollow is collapsing, allowing creatures that have haunted the darkness for centuries to enter the streets.
The Black Glass has been opened.
The Guardians have failed.
And Nora Beaumont is the last one left.
As the town descends into chaos, Nora discovers that her family's connection to the Black Glass reaches back centuries—to an ancient French bloodline that encountered the supernatural doorway long before Blackwater Hollow ever existed.
Her ancestors were not merely Guardians.
They were the ones who created the first seal.
And Nora is the final Guardian born to protect it.
But her destiny comes with a terrible price.
Caleb discovers that his family's bloodline carries the power to permanently seal the gateway.
There is only one problem.
The ritual requires a sacrifice.
His life.
Caleb secretly prepares to give himself to the darkness, determined to save Nora and everyone trapped inside Blackwater Hollow.
But Nora refuses to let him die.
Together, they search for another way and uncover a forbidden secret buried within the oldest Guardian records.
The Black Glass can be destroyed.
The gateway can be closed forever.
The curse can finally end.
But destroying the Black Glass will also destroy the supernatural power inside Nora.
She will lose everything that makes her a Guardian.
Her strength.
Her connection to the creatures.
Her immortality.
Perhaps even the part of herself that has always felt different from humanity.
For Nora, the choice becomes terrifyingly simple.
Save her power...
or save the man she loves.
But before she can make that choice, Nora finally discovers the truth about the mysterious Watcher.
He was never the monster the Guardians claimed he was.
For generations, the Watcher stood beneath Blackwater Hollow and watched innocent people being sacrificed to the entity beneath the lake.
He tried to stop them.
He failed.
So he became something worse.
He hunted the people who fed the ancient creature.
He killed those who continued the sacrifices.
He became a monster...
to fight monsters.
Now the final Watcher makes his last stand as Blackwater Hollow collapses around him.
Creatures flood the streets.
The lake rises.
The ancient boundary tears apart.
And Caleb is caught in the middle of the destruction.
When Nora finds him barely alive, she realizes she may already be too late.
With no other choice, she enters the darkness beneath Blackwater Lake alone.
Waiting for her is the ancient entity that has been feeding on generations of blood.
It offers her everything.
Power.
Immortality.
Control over every creature that crawled from the darkness.
And one final temptation:
Caleb's life.
All Nora has to do is accept the throne waiting for her beneath the lake.
Become the new ruler of the supernatural world.
Become immortal.
Become the thing her ancestors feared.
But Nora refuses.
She chooses humanity.
She chooses mortality.
She chooses Caleb.
And she chooses to end the cycle that destroyed generations of her family.
Nora unleashes the last power of the Guardians.
The Black Glass shatters.
The gateway begins to collapse.
The ancient entity screams as the darkness beneath Blackwater Lake is sealed away forever.
One by one, the creatures disappear.
The supernatural boundary vanishes.
The curse ends.
And Lucien Beaumont's name is finally cleared.
He never abandoned his daughter.
He spent his final years trying to protect her from the destiny waiting inside her blood.
Blackwater Hollow survives.
But Nora pays the ultimate price.
Her supernatural abilities disappear.
For the first time in her life, she is completely human.
And she doesn't regret it.
Months later, Nora and Caleb leave Blackwater Hollow behind and begin a new life together.
The cabin remains empty.
Every window has been replaced.
There is no Black Glass.
No ancient symbols.
No creatures.
No whispers from beneath the lake.
For the first time, Nora believes the nightmare is finally over.
Until one morning...
inside the empty upstairs bedroom...
a tiny crack appears across the glass.
Nora freezes.
There is no one inside the house.
Then a child's voice whispers from the other side of the window.
“Is Nora home?”
The glass slowly begins to darken.
Black.
Deeper than night.
Deeper than the lake.
And somewhere beyond the glass...
something opens its eyes.
THE END.
