Then she killed the vampire who made her, walked into the dawn, and woke up ordinary.Now she lives in a flat in London with no photographs on the walls. She preserves old letters written by dead people. She practices saying "thank you" in the right tone. She lies awake at night listening to heartbeats she used to hear from across a room and can no longer distinguish from her own.She told herself this was the life she wanted. For ten years, she almost believed it.Then she starts walking the city after midnight and finds a warehouse in Bermondsey where four vampires have built something she's never seen before: a family. A choice.Naya steps inside. She tells herself she's only watching. But watching becomes belonging, and belonging becomes complicity, and the night she's called to clean up someone else's violence, she understands the truth she's been avoiding since the bridge at two in the morning.She is not done. She was never done.

The mirror is the first thing to change when you come back.
For three hundred years, Naya had no reflection. She moved through the world as an absence: faster than human, stronger than human, hungry in ways humans couldn't imagine. Then she killed the vampire who made her, walked into the dawn, and woke up ordinary.
Now she lives in a flat in London with no photographs on the walls. She preserves old letters written by dead people. She practices saying "thank you" in the right tone. She lies awake at night listening to heartbeats she used to hear from across a room and can no longer distinguish from her own.
She told herself this was the life she wanted. For ten years, she almost believed it.
Then she starts walking the city after midnight and finds a warehouse in Bermondsey where four vampires have built something she's never seen before: a family. A choice.
Naya steps inside. She tells herself she's only watching. But watching becomes belonging, and belonging becomes complicity, and the night she's called to clean up someone else's violence, she understands the truth she's been avoiding since the bridge at two in the morning.
She is not done. She was never done. And the only way forward is through a fight she cannot win against people she doesn't want to lose.
The Guardian: Book Two is a story about the distance between the life you chose and the life that fits. And what it costs to admit they aren't the same thing.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
