Maximum Security Novel Novels & Stories

’ I said to Conan via mind-link, ‘Done Alpha. “Tighten the border security, I want every post covered at all times," I said to Clint, my head of security. “No one leaves or enters the pack without my permission.” He nodded, “Yes Alpha.” My gaze swept the scene. 'She was a rogue, but I could smell another distinct smell coming from her,' I said to Max.‘I believe that is the hybrid smell,’ his reply came shortly after.

Now she walked up the driveway in combat boots and a black coat. Liam was by her side. Genevieve, too. Elira had arranged security to hold the grounds while they searched. “You sure you’re ready?” Liam asked. Nova didn’t answer. She just walked through the front doors. Inside, dust cloaked the furniture. The air smelled like cigar smoke and dried blood. Nova led them to the study, Cassian’s sanctuary. Bookshelves. A decanter of scotch still half-full. And behind the desk… a painting.

“She’s under extra security now. Twenty-four hours. No one gets near her without getting scrutinised heavily by security first.” I let out a breath I didn’t realize I’d been holding, but the knot in my stomach didn’t loosen completely. “And if they still try?” The corner of his mouth curved in amusement. “Then they’ll wish they hadn’t.” The way he said it sent a shiver up my spine not because I doubted him, but because I believed him completely. Max didn’t give me any more room to argue. His hand was on my elbow, firm and guiding me toward the door.

Like a fly trying to break into a lion’s den. What’s worse, the place is swarming with wolves. Nova wasn’t exaggerating when she said security was tight. At least six guards patrol the outside alone, their movements precise and calculated. They aren’t just regular enforcers—they move with the discipline of trained killers. “Damn,” I whisper, pressing my back against the hedge. “This isn’t some rich guy’s summer home, Nova. Who the hell did Silas send me to steal from?” Her voice is tense in my earpiece. “I was about to ask you the same thing. I don’t like this, Raine.”

My whole body was screaming at me to run, to escape, but I forced the fear down. Not this time. Lisa had hunted me for too long. She had stolen too much. And I wasn’t about to let her win. A flash of movement—Noah darted to the side, disappearing into another room. Dominic fired a shot, forcing Lisa to duck behind a decorative column. Raven’s voice crackled in my earpiece. “Guys, security’s on the move. You have about sixty seconds before you’re surrounded.” No pressure, then. I exhaled sharply, steadied my grip, and did something reckless.

What’s the next move? But Isolde’s words echo in my head, and as much as I want to argue, as much as I want to press for more, I know she’s right about one thing: It’s not safe here. And I can’t ignore the strange, unsettling feeling that lingers. Something about her, about this entire situation, isn’t adding up. What did she mean by "maximum security"? What did she mean by the steelpaw pack not being safe? As we sit in the quiet aftermath of her departure, the questions pile up—more unanswered than before.

"I only want the best for Riley. I want to honor Greg and Lucy. I also have several guard dogs that security will use if anyone tries to break in. In each master bedroom, yours, mind, and Riley's, there is a panic room built in." Maryanne is left speechless, "What. . ." "What's wrong," Max turns to her, his brow furrowing. "Is all of that necessary?" She ends up repeating herself. "I don't want to take any chances, especially on the days that I have to go into the city. I want to know that you guys are protected." Maryanne's heart flutters, but she pushes it down immediately. "What's that," she points to one of the smaller screens that she can't quite make out.

Some guys climbed to her room by her window. "Who are you?" She asked with fear. "None of your business. Give the secret book to us." "I won't." She said. One of them hit her and she fainted. Then they started to find the book. They find the secret book behind the photo frame. Then took it and run away.
