LOGINAll humans are assigned a guardian angel to keep them away from harm and walk on the righteous path. But, not Zara. In fact, she has two guardians keeping an eye on her. As monsters lurk around her to find information of the greatest weapon ever, a demigod and a half-demon guard her body and her mind against the attacks. But what about her heart? The guardians aren't interested in her heart, or are they? As Zara learns about her true identity and the reality of the two swoon-worthy boys who have suddenly taken up a residence in her heart, her life gets more entangled in a complicated web of deceit, hurt and love. Will she be able to understand the purpose of her life? More importantly, is she ready for the bitter truth?

She steadied herself and began walking carefully. Darkness was beginning to seep through the skies, and her hoodie was doing a dismal job of protecting her from the cold. She flicked on her mobile torch and began treading again and felt as if someone pulled her leg. She frantically turned around and waved her torchlight everywhere, but there was no one in the vicinity. She convinced herself that she had imagined it when a sharp pull at her leg made her fall down on the snow.Afraid, she shouted, “Who’s there?” She gathered her stuff and dusted the snowflakes off her clothes and jeans when she heard a faint sound of laughter. She again called out, “This isn’t funny; whoever you are, just stop it.”She was afr
Zara cleared her throat, "Chemistry. Almost all teachers have asked me to help you with their respective subjects. So, do you have a free period today?""You tell me," said Ryan as a gang of girls went past them giggling.Zara waved her hand in front of him. "Hello, are you even listening?""Um-hmm""What did I just say?"He took her waving hand in his and pinned her against the wall. His mischievous blue eyes held her gaze as she gasped. "Chemistry...our chemistry...it will be electromagnetic."He released her hand but kept his firmly planted on the wall. Zara gulped unnecessarily. Her voice came out as a squawk, "I was talking about our school subject.""And, I was talking about my subject," replied R
The sun was shining on the bedroom window, yet Zara was snoring heavily. She was an early bird and seldom got up late, even on Sundays. Her phone rang, disturbing her sleep, and she lazily hit the receive button. Her head throbbed painfully, and she had trouble focusing on things. She managed walking to the bathroom, washed her face, and looked around for a painkiller. She gulped it down with half a bottle of water and sat again on her bed with her head in her hands.Her phone blared, and she picked up the call. "Hangover over, birthday girl?" asked Veronica."No, V, my head hurts. How…how do you know?" "Your mother had called me up to check if I knew about your date. I covered up for you, and you owe me the complete story. Get ready; I am coming to pick you up."At the mention of last night, Zara's memories of Ryan came flooding back. She recalled how he had held her, caressed her, o
"Well, that's a secret. After all, you had asked me to plan your surprise birthday party." Ryan smiled with a twinkle in his eyes. "We don't have much time left to plan an elaborate celebration. However, I wouldn't want a beautiful girl to be alone on her birthday."Zara blushed. She had worked so hard to avoid boys, worn clothes that always covered her up, wore glasses, and kept her nose buried in books. After her father had left her mother to raise a kid alone, she had resolved to never give away her heart. She was sure if she ever fell in love, her man would leave too.She had many questions popping up, but she asked, "Who were those men? It seemed like you were having an argument with them." Ryan waved away her concern, "My father has made a lot of enemies in his business. People like to take it out on me sometimes, but I am always prepared.""Is that why you came to Missouri from San Fr
