Her Gargoyle Bodyguard by yonderstories

He's her stoic gargoyle guardian - and she's the curvy heiress who tempts his granite heart. Ariella Wainwright, heiress to a fortune, is caged by golden bars of high society and her father's overbearing protection. With a mind as sharp as her curves are lush, she craves the adventure that's always been just beyond her reach. But when danger breaches the walls of her sheltered world, it's not just her spirit that's freed-it's the shadows that hunger for Wainwright blood. Enter Callum, the alpha leader of a hidden clan of gargoyles, whose very existence is intertwined with the Wainwright legacy. His wings are her shield, his gaze an unspoken vow of eternal protection-and yet, a smoldering desire threatens to breach the boundaries of duty. As Ariella's naivety to the supernatural world fades, so does her resistance to the magnetic pull between them. But with an ancient enemy lurking in the darkness, ready to extinguish the Wainwright line, the stakes soar higher than Callum's silent, moonlit vigils. Will the passion that flares between them fan the flames of their survival, or will it spell doom for both?
