Novel & Cerita Night Guard Jobs

"I er- I am not. My shift starts on Thursday, four- no three days from now." Dante smirked. "Well. . .You will join the guards who are on duty at night for one week." Dante held up a finger. "Also, you will be on patrol all night." Lucius shook his head unbelievingly. "Yup, you heard me right- all night."

The contact I had hired for surveillance reporting in. Security shift change at 22:00 and 06:00. Three officers on overnight duty. Cameras cover the main entrance and perimeter, but not side garden access. Staff are mostly gone by 20:00 except live-in butler. I saved the information to my growing file, adding it to floor plans and exit routes and contingency scenarios.

The job was to kill the person they had in their possession and make it look like an explosion set up by someone who might have an issue with him. He refused at first, but with the promise of a large sum of money, his greediness took over, and he accepted, which led him to doing the job and putting him in his current predicament. He studied the pattern in which the nurses had their turns and waited till it was late at night before they had their final change to those who would take their night shift.

That alone made me feel like I’d been doused in cold water. “No, I’m okay, thanks.” As Cara was about to continue on her way, I said, “Wait. I have a question.” “Yes?” “Who all works here at night?” She raised a ginger eyebrow. “At night? It’s mostly a skeleton staff until after dinner is served. Mostly everyone goes home around nine PM, except for the security guard.” “So there’s no one here at, say, three in the morning?” Cara gave me a strange look. “Not that I know of. Why do you ask?”

"You need rest. You're no good to yourself or your work if you're exhausted." "Easy to say. Harder to do when you keep expecting someone to break in and kill you." "That's what I'm here for. To make sure that doesn't happen. Try to sleep, Adrian. I'll be awake." He looked at me, something vulnerable flickering in his expression. "You're really going to stay up all night?" "I sleep in shifts. Two hours at a time. But yes, someone is always awake and watching. That's how this works." "Doesn't that exhaust you?"

"Don't. She's just taunting us to retaliate, then she will punish us. Just be quiet." We were able to wash after the exercises. The teams started the bonfire and we went inside the tent to treat our minor wounds. We're so tired and dirty. We did not cook anymore and just nibbled on biscuits and candies. Jessie went back to us and gave us our night guard assignment. "Your team will stand guard from 2:00-5:00 am." We looked at her and Charm spoke, "That means we won't be able to sleep at all. I'm sure the alarm will go off at 5:00 am. There are so many teams here and only our team gets a 3-hour night watch?" She was gritting her teeth. Jessie laughed derisively. "I volunteered your team as the

“It won’t.” His voice lowered slightly. “You’re scaring me.” For a moment, I almost softened. Almost. “I’ll be careful,” I said. After the call ended, I sat on the couch and placed my hand on my stomach. Three days. I couldn’t afford mistakes. The next morning, Mia sent a short message. Security guard rotation identified. Night shift leaves the rear side vulnerable between 1:15 AM and 1:27 AM. Twelve minutes. Not much. Another message followed.

"And...what are those?" "I work as a cashier at a 24/7 restaurant during 1:00 am to 4:00 am. Your body guard at 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, a chicken delivery boy at 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm. Mondays to saturday, I'm your full body guard at sunday," he said without looking at me, he is focusing on driving. "We are near, Ms. Scott." "Woah... Don't you feel tired? Why are you even working too hard?"

she replied. "Go to bed immediately!" He turned off the light and shut the door behind him. Gia told me in a whispering tone that he was the chief guard on night duty, going around the palace to make sure everything was okay. He did that every night. I couldn't sleep that night, only one thought consumed my mind. My escape! How I was going to do it was still a mystery to me, but one thing was sure, I would escape from this hellhole or die while trying.

It exhausted me to walk towards the hospital while suppressing my drowsiness. Drowsiness couldn’t win over me, especially when I switched to the night shift. I could already see the tall hospital building and the people in the waiting area; the ambulance at the entrance of the ER; and the families crying and handling the paperwork for the morgue. "Yhra, have you shifted?" The guard at the table joked with me as I approached for my time card. "Yes, it’s my first day on the night shift. Suddenly," I replied, then he checked my bag and signaled that it was okay.
