The Guardian by Shayne Carmichael
Bryan is a 19 years old music student. Orphaned he has always had a guardian who provides for every his needs but never shows himself. In all these years Bryan is arrived to fall in love for Jaden, his guardian, and now he is determined to meet the man.Jaden lives like an hermit in a secluded mansion and Bryan decides to infiltrate in the property. When he meets Jaden, he can't believe to his eyes: Jaden is a very young man, barely thirty, and he is blind. Jaden seems to be pleased to meet Bryan, but still he remains detached and mysterious.
The story is very short, less than 50 pages, and it's the classical alpha/omega pair, even if here the alpha is blind and so takes his strenght also from Bryan, making him his eyes to the world. It's also an erotic tale, since the sex is a great part of the story. There are some points that are not explained, like from where Bryan comes and what is his connection with Jaden (at least not "fully" explained...). Maybe with a slightly longer story all the unanswered questions could be fulfilled.
