Protect Him At All Costs Novels & Stories

“Harsh but cute.” “Go away, Linus.” He ignored me, picking up a small rock and tossing it between his hands. “You know, you should thank me. I’ve kept your little secret safe.” “Out of the kindness of your heart?” He snorted. “Please. I don’t do kindness for free.” I sighed. “What do you want?” He looked at me then, serious for once. “Protection.” I frowned. “What?” He leaned forward. “I want you to protect me.”

He trailed off his sentence. “I know that probably scares you. But I promise you, that I would protect you with my dying breath. I would never let anything happen to you. I would never let anybody fuck with you. I would never do anything to put you in harm’s way, to deliberately put you in danger.” He folded his arms.

I just do not want to imagine the worst out of this. “That is not going to happen.” I promise you. You're not going to lose anyone. I'm not going to lose you. And you are not going to lose me either. “I can protect you.” I definitely can protect you, i will do everything in my power to protect that. Jonas says. “I can also protect you.” I say to him and he looks at me stepping closer towards me. “No harm will come to you because you're trying to help me.” I will never be able to forgive myself if the same brothers are human anyway.

“You matter too much.” The words landed heavy. “So that’s it?” I asked softly. He turned back to me, eyes dark. “No. That’s the problem.” He stopped in front of me, close enough that I could feel the heat of him. Close enough that every breath felt shared. “If I cross that line,” he said, voice rough, “there’s no going back. I don’t do half-measures. And if I claim something—someone—I protect it. At any cost.”

Then he cupped my face with his large hands, holding on despite my attempts to take my face away from his hands. “You may hate me now and forever, Lyra, but this is my promise to you and I intend to keep it,” he said. “I will still protect you from the world and from yourself. I will also protect you from me so I never get to hurt a hair on your body ever again, no matter what.” The raw honesty in his gaze and voice moved me, my anger flickering against his devotion. But before I could find my voice to retort, the door opened.

In the next second, he pulled me into him very tight I felt it immediately… the way his control cracked just enough for something real to come through. His face pressed against my hair, his arms wrapped around me like he was anchoring himself. “I…” His voice broke slightly before he stopped himself. I held him just as tightly. For once, he didn’t hide it. After a moment, he pulled back just enough to look at me, his hands coming up to cup my face. “I will protect you,” he said firmly. “Both of you.” His thumb brushed lightly against my cheek. “No one touches you,” he continued. “No one comes near you. I’ll burn everything before I let anything happen to either of you.”

"Is that what this is about? Protecting me?" He could see her shutting down, closing him out again. But this was too important. "I'll do whatever it takes," he told her. "It doesn't matter if you return my feelings or not. I made a promise to Roth the day he brought you onto the team. We all did, but I guarantee that promise means more to me than it does to anyone else. I will protect you."

With his injured shoulder, he hid behind the table, as they walked past him. He had been here to make sure she was alright and if anyone impose a threat he was gonna be ready to attack, he thought Barbra would be, but she wasn’t, seems she wouldn’t be in much harm anyway, but he couldn’t say, he had to be there to watch her and he had to protect the master too that was his duty and his promise. He would watch her till Sambas is strong enough to stand on his feet again. He couldn’t say how much relief he felt that he didn’t kill her.

he asked. She shook her head softly. “No.” There was silence,then “I’ll visit them,” he said at last. “And?” “I’ll make it clear to them.” Her cheeks warmed slightly at the phrasing. “And if they attempt leverage again?” His gaze hardened. “They won’t.” “Thank you.”Layla said as she inhaled slowly. He didn’t respond to that,instead— “You should understand something,” he said. She looked at him. “When I protect something, I don’t do it halfway and I don’t let it go easily.”

It was amazing. Then just when we were both letting go, clearing our throats and blinking, he reached for me in the link. ‘Just remember, Rig: Until you challenge him, he can’t take your mate. Not himself. There’s a measure of protection for her as long as you haven’t actually gone for him. So… step carefully until there’s no more room to move without taking him down.’ Shit. I nodded. ‘Thank you.’ ‘I love you, man.’ ‘I love you, too.’
