A Risk On Forever Novels & Stories

During one of the games, Zoe changed seats and sat beside me, quietly squeezing my hand under the table. I gave her a small reassuring smile. Back then, among all of us, Felix and I had been the first couple to get together. Everyone thought we would also be the first to get married. However, six years had passed, and somehow we were still only boyfriend and girlfriend. … By the time the party ended, most of our friends had already left. Only Felix, Zoe, Lucas, and I stayed behind. Zoe pulled me into a hug and whispered softly into my ear. "Sara, no matter what happens, don't wrong yourself for someone else."

I wonder if I'll ever be able to convince her to go outside again. "Why are you locking those up?" Ana asks. "Gun safety, remember?" "It's not like someone's going to break in and take them. The only thing gained from locking them up is making it harder for ourselves to get them out if we need them." I ignore her and continue unloading the rifle in my hands. "Do you think one of us is going to shoot the other in the middle of the night?"

"The risk is not zero and the system is reliable. Both of those things are true simultaneously." "And the doubt?" "The doubt wants the risk to be zero," he said. "The doubt is asking for certainty that is not available." He looked at his hands. "No one is certain. There is no version of this — of any relationship, of any committed life with another person — in which the risk is eliminated. There is only the management of the risk, and the demonstrated reliability of the management over time, and the choice to continue on the basis of the demonstrated reliability." "Yes," Dr. Farrow said.

She proposed a monitored collaboration, with Dana under strict supervision to extract information that could potentially save lives. The government, however, was resolute in its stance. Dana's actions had already caused immeasurable harm, and the risk of further damage was deemed too great.

The tunnels connect to the other 2 packs so I'm positive they might be full of pack members. As the rogues find the hidden door, I decide to move everyone to the old plantation to the south of us for now and mind linked everyone to head south towards the old plantation. The pack purchased the plantation almost 50 years ago when the owner died and had no children to to pass it down to. It has since been remodeled and fully stocked so we could shift the pack there if something bad happened. The land the plantation sits on also has protection spells all over the property curtesy of our alliance with the local witches. They prevent us from being seen or heard from the outside world and prevents

Fighting blind is the recipe of defeat and I don’t want to take that risk. “…Silence..calm down the three of you…all of you listen…right now we are in the spot..any moves that we made have risk…if we pulled out our agent..then the countless lives will just die, and then we have to fight a horde of demons and beast that we don’t know how many and how strong..if we set the radio towers, we either made it..or perhaps our men will died in the process..and so is the many of the innocent lives…either way…the result is…Aeternum will be put in danger….”.

Because she felt it too. That subtle and unresolved tension. The voice spoke again. “Coexistence… introduces instability.” Zara rolled her eyes. “Everything introduces instability to you.” But the voice continued. “Instability increases unpredictability.” I frowned. “Define risk.” A pause, then... “Uncontrolled divergence.” The words settled heavy because we had focused on balance.

“Yes, it does.” “Why?” “Because you keep on reminding me, for you attachment means risk,” he replied. I couldn’t argue with that. Risk had basically been the theme of the past year. Evan. Vanessa. Custody. The internet circus. And now Cole. The biggest risk of all. “You’re right,” I admitted. “I usually am.” “Don’t push it.” He smiled faintly. Silence settled again.
