Abide By The Rules Novels & Stories

Before we arrived, at the parents' place, scratch that, I mean palace, Theo gave me an extensive list of rules that I'm allowed to do and not allowed to do. Number one, speak only when spoken to. Number two, my opinion doesn't mean shit. Number three, don't touch anything I don't own, well there goes my pipe dream of maybe getting a few hundreds here and there. Number four, sit still and be pretty. They seemed easy enough to follow, the only problem with that was I had to do everything I wasn't used to doing, but I could try right.

I asked, confused. He looked at me without saying anything or blinking. Just stared. Just when I thought he zoned out, he replied. “Seven days, seven rules. You break one, you earn a strike.” He said. Seven rules? How was I going to survive? Maybe I shouldn’t have agreed earlier. Who was I joking with? I don’t have a choice. “Yes sir.” “Your rule for today, I must not get to any meeting before you. You come after me for even one meeting, you earn a strike.”

Oliver shook his head and tsked, “Forget these two, listen to me, little lamb. There are five rules you have to follow and obey while you live here with us and you are all good to settle down without worrying.” He held up his forefinger as he continued, “Rule number one. Do whatever is expected of you, in short, obey us. No questions, no delays, no disobedience. And it doesn’t just mean sex. You do exactly what’s expected of you, and you’ll be rewarded for your submission. Pleasure, comfort, maybe even kindness… Hell, maybe anything you want. I’ll give it all to you.”

Mora said. I unfolded the paper and read the writing before nodding. The rules were straightforward, and I understood that adhering to them was crucial for my survival in the castle. Alpha's Rule: Don't respond when someone speaks to you. Always answer when you're called. Avoid looking at the alpha without permission. Show respect to the alpha's beta. Follow instructions given to you. I read the five rules and couldn't help but think how silly they were. Why would he make such rules without any real importance? It reminded me of the time I got hit in the face for just glancing at him.

He nodded at me and muttered something along the lines like we will earn your trust. "Okay so the rules are 1) I don't want any back talking, And 2) you have to respect all your brothers. 3) you should not swear. 4) no drinking and drugs. 5) you are not allowed to have a boyfriend 6) you have to tell us every time when you go somewhere." His rules are reasonable.

"Because when I'm with you, I feel something I haven't felt in years. You make me want to be better. To try harder. To actually live instead of just exist." "Richard..." "I know you're scared. I'm scared too. But I think we could be something amazing if you'll give us a chance." She closes her eyes, and I can see the war happening inside her. Logic versus desire. Safety versus risk. When she opens her eyes again, the decision is made. "Okay." "Okay?" "Let's try this. Whatever this is. But we have rules." "Name them." "No one can know at work. Complete professionalism when we're in the office."

She coughed out repeatedly with blood proceeding out of her mouth. He grinned, getting up from where he was, and walked away from her. She could finally breathe. Her hands adjusted her black hair that had already stuck to her face as a result of the blood and sweat present on it, tucking it behind her ears. Her training clothes were messed up with dust, sweat, and a little bit of blood. She looked up at him again as he walked away from her, but suddenly stopped and turned to look at her. "The most important rule of them all. Rule number 6" he spoke. "NEVER FALL IN LOVE"

The crowd grew silent immediately, silently digesting Tess's words. Seeing her strategy worked, Tess continued. "The rules include, one, no indiscriminate killing. Two, no stealing. Three, disputes must be settled amicably or brought to the main office for Judgement. Four, no petty crimes. Those are the major rules, the rest will be criminal codes and rules ensuring the welfare of the people.

Raviora's Point of View I am standing in front of Adam wearing my big smile and nodding like an obedient kid to him. His fiery eyes went on mine. “What are my rules?” He said, using his stern voice. “Rule number one, I should answer your call every time before it rings three times. Rule number two, I should bring Maxwell with me. Rule number three, I should never run away from you and lastly, no one has to know where I went for the past few weeks.”

" He remarked with a shrug, and I shot him an angry look before gathering my composure. Rule 4: You must never associate with Katrina in any way. At this, I once more raised my head. I questioned, "Why?" "You can't ask because it's personal," He answered briefly. I resisted the impulse to bother him and continued with the other rules, including the final one and Rule 7: You are not permitted to intervene in my personal problems. Rule 15: You must always be prepared to meet my needs and be readily available whenever I need you. At this, I gently coughed, hoping he wouldn't notice that I appeared embarrassed.
