Rin Shelter Novels & Stories

“I want to. I really do, but I can’t. I’ll just take my bath and leave. I’m sorry for all this trouble.” I kept the door locked as I hurried into the bathroom. After taking a quick bath, I stepped out with a towel wrapped securely around my body, water still dripping from my wet hair onto my shoulders. The moment I entered the room, I froze. Lucas was already there. “How did you—?” “Spare keys,” he cut in, holding them up with a small, almost sheepish grin. “I didn’t mean to invade In here” Lucas said. I immediately lowered my head, too embarrassed to meet his eyes while I was standing there nearly naked.

It was a scar on the face of the dead world, but a scar that was healing, turning into something new. The main gate of Birkin Shelter was a formidable structure, a reinforced wall of shipping containers and scrap metal, topped with barbed wire and punctuated by two guarded watchtowers. As the blue sedan approached, a figure waved from the left tower, and the heavy, makeshift gate, mounted on shrieking metal rollers, began to grind open just wide enough for the vehicle to pass through.

But here's the thing. What's a shelter? Ethan Brooks scratches his head and regrets that he hasn't watched more episodes of Wilderness Survival! But it's all in the mind of the beholder. Shelter, isn't that what it's all about, shelter from the wind and rain? One's shelter must depend on that rock wall, which itself is considered a shelter from the wind, and to keep out the rain, it must be built on a sloping surface for easy drainage. Ethan Brooks had a quick idea in his head of a herringbone-shaped nest with his back against a rock wall. The project was not a big one.

The cries had faded, but the memory of them lingered. Beatrice went back to close the shutters, making the house darker. “We will stay inside until it is quiet again,” she said. Rina nodded faintly. Her hands rested on her belly again. She whispered softly to her unborn babies, “I will keep you safe. I promise. Even if I must hide forever.” For the first time since leaving the Crystal pack, Rina realized the human world was not the refuge she believed it to be. It was another battlefield. Only this one carried chains and execution instead of claws and teeth.

“Your mother is going to be both furious and insufferably proud.” Rin’s throat tightened. She nodded once. “We’re moving in twenty,” Rhea went on. “There’s an abandoned watch hut half a mile up the slope we can patch for the night. Healers will want more than salve and curses for those wrists.” “We’ll be there,” Kael said. Rhea gave them one more measuring look, then went to bark orders at Deren. Kael turned back to Rin. “Can you walk?” he asked. She eyed the rough ground, the loose stones, her ankle, which had stopped screaming and settled into a low, savage throb.

I asked as I glanced around us looking for the Rinitor, “It was with us just a while back, no?” “It is okay, Princess,” Sandra reassured me, “Rinitors can camouflage themselves. Become invisible whenever they wish to. He is probably still lurking around us but in camouflage form. It is how Rinitors are.” A wave of awe enveloped me. “Oh, that explains a lot. When he first came at me, it looked to me like he just materialized out of thin air.” “We are here!” Selene suddenly called out but looked at me to let me know she was relaying the information to me in particular.

"SHIN!" Shireen was not a woman who was easily seduced by the tricks of the men. Shireen is a woman who is loyal to her partner. No matter how many times David asked her to have a fling, but Shireen's heart was still strong with Redric. Shireen really loves Redric, and vice versa.

After the jostle in the car, he finally halted the car in front of a huge building in the woodland. No one would imagine the building was there except they were too curious. It's actually a sanctuary home which Raven had built for refugees that were attacked in a remote town by the werewolves or any places they had escaped from. They were able to get treatments and free food to survive on while most of them seemed to have their sons work with Raven since she was their life saver. Even females were volunteers for this kind of job.

“Still, it is highly dangerous. They are beginners and they are not deeply knowledgeable about how our world works. Their families did not even explain what they are and how much potential they possess.” Aloysius stood up and adjusted his suit. “Prepare the car, Mr. Grahamsz. I’m going to visit my good old friends.” The butler bowed and sighed. He already knows what that “visit” means. He pressed the intercom and stated a few instructions. “Prepare to seal Areas A and B. Notify authorities that Aloysius von Rochester will reserve the road. Also, contact DTL Inc. to repair the roads and infrastructure tomorrow…Yes. I know they just fixed the park but they already know what to do. Yes…”

Instead of leading her out of the shelter, they headed toward the openings at the back. Squatting her head to avoid the poor archway, she slipped into the cramped space that offered a natural cistern. As she straightened, she was prepared to find Rhye. His power was tangible this close. What she hadn’t expected was to find him stark naked as he rose from the shallow water, tossing his wet hair over his massive shoulders.
