Protect Her At All Costs Novels & Stories

But freedom doesn’t mean I won’t protect what’s mine. I trust her, but I don’t trust the world around her. She’s young, beautiful, and innocent—men will want to get close to her. They always do. So yes, I’ll have my people watching her, following her every move if necessary. Not to control her… but to guard her. To make sure no one touches her, no one hurts her, and no one steals her away. At least she needs someone who can protect her physically. And until she understands how dangerous this world is, that someone will be me.

The way she trembled when I touched her, the way she clung to me when I finally took her. Big and wild and beautiful. My storm. I’d never been good with words, but last night I said something true when I told her she was mine. Not like a cage, but like a shield. Because I meant it. Every damn word. Protecting her wasn’t just about keeping her safe from Marcus or Raven or the Cobras. It was about keeping her safe from the ghosts she carried. The pain I saw hidden behind her quick smile, the fear in her eyes that no one else seemed to notice.

She was all he had left, and he wouldn’t let anything or anyone take her away. The thought of losing her, of not being able to protect her, was unbearable. He would move heaven and earth to make sure she was safe and back where she belonged. Even if it meant killing everyone along the way.

he asked "Jett. She’s a liability.” “She’s under my protection now. Anyone touches her, they die slower than the last guy. Spread the word.”

He's raging against the darkness. "I want her protected. 24/7. I don't care what it costs. I don't care who you have to hire. I don't care how many people it takes. I don't care if you have to camp out in her front yard. I don't care if you have to move her to a safe house." A pause. His jaw tightens. His hand clenches into a fist. "Yes, I'm sure. She's a witness. She's in danger. She's the key to everything. She's the one who can bring him down. She's the one who can give us justice. She's the one who can set us free."

The universe didn’t want us apart, it never had. My hands flexed at my sides as resolve coiled inside me. Sasha wouldn’t win, not again, not with lies, manipulations or threats. Protecting Ella had stopped being just instinct. It had grown to become a vow, a silent and unbreakable one. I would fight for her, shield her, stand between her and every danger. Even if it cost me everything. My phone buzzed on the desk, jolting me back. A message from one of my most trusted pack members:

“I told security not to let him in again.” A strange chill spread through her spine. “I don’t know who that could be. No one should be looking for me.” Adrian held her gaze with unwavering certainty. “If anyone tries to bother you, they will deal with me first.” She felt the promise beneath his words. Not a threat shouted into the air, but a quiet vow wrapped in fire. She wondered if he realized the weight his protection carried, or how deeply the offer struck her. No one had ever stood between her and danger. She had always been the one shielding others, sacrificing herself to save a crumbling family that had never deserved her.

She had her arms wrapped around herself, looking disheveled—she’d ensured her bangs covered her mark, of course—and scared. My chest ached like a thousand-pound weight was crushing it. I gave her a small, reassuring smile, but she only relaxed marginally. She was looking between me and Kellen, too, but it was more like prey fearing for its life. “More sure than my title as future Alpha,” I said, holding her hazel gaze. Then I hardened when I turned back to Kellen. “She’s under my protection. Anyone who harms her—or tries to—will meet my jaws.”

"I won't let anything happen to you. I promise." And as I burst through the castle gates, Athena cradled in my arms, I knew that the battle was far from over. But I was determined to see it through to the end, no matter the cost. For Athena's safety was paramount, and I would stop at nothing to ensure that she received the justice and protection she deserved. ________

Ava nodded and walked into the bathroom, I turned to Amelia. “Get that potion ready,” I instructed. “But the child,” Amelia protested. “There can always be another child but there will always be one Ava, I cannot lose that one, I don't care what I have to lose to protect her…all I know is that I would protect her at all cost.”
