Here is Amazon's "Look Inside" preview of Lillian's suggestion - Edge of Time by Susan M. MacDonald:
https://www.amazon.com/Edge-Time-Susa...
Description on Amazon:
Alec, 15, and Riley, a premed student, live in different areas of Canada and don’t know each other. But they are thrown together when both are rescued from dead-eyed assassins by a strange man named Darius, who teleports them out of danger and into the secret compound of the Tyon Collective—a renegade group of intergalactic defenders out to stop the world-devouring entity known as Rhozan. It is explained that Earth was interbred with aliens generations ago so that certain humans would develop the power to fight Rhozan, and that includes Riley and especially Alec, whose powers are unlike anything the Tyons have encountered before. Elements of this tale feel rushed: the backstory, the evidence that the world is falling apart, and the specifics of the magical orbs wielded by the good guys. But MacDonald knows how to string together action scenes for maximum excitement, from a subway attack to a boat explosion to zombie-style onslaughts. Perfect for fans of James Patterson’s Witch & Wizard series or Pittacus Lore’s I Am Number Four (2010). Grades 7-10.

Possibly spoilers for plot.
I remember it being about a girl and her brother, she finds out she has powers, one of them being teleporting. Theres another guy named Darius, I believe his last name was Finn or Flinn who works for some organization that gathers kids like her to keep them safe. Theres some kind of monster/alien/entity that tracks and consumes these kids.
At the moment thats all i can remember, will updated if more comes to mind.
