Safe People Novels & Stories

Every smile. Every habit. Every routine. Every vulnerability. Filed away. Waiting for the day they would become useful. Finally, the voice inside the earpiece spoke again. "I don't care about anyone else." "I only want Emily." Silence settled over the room. "Before she remembers." The hacker's gaze shifted from Alexander to Emily. A cold smile slowly formed beneath the mask. "Not yet." "They believe the danger is over." Another pause. "People make their greatest mistakes the moment they convince themselves they're safe."

People fear things or situations that make them feel unsafe or unsure. Ever since Luta first hit me, all I felt was dread. And now, this is probably how the people of Crimson pack feel about me now. Safe To be shielded from risk or not presented to risk or chance; not prone to be hurt or loss. This, this is the very thing I feel whenever I am with Tyler. Solace A condition of actual ease and freedom from torment or constraint. After I told him of my past, he gave me something I never realized I really wanted.

Sarah sat in the kitchen, drinking tea, slowly starting to relax. "I thought I was the only one," she said. "For months, I thought I was losing my mind." "That's how we all felt," I said. "But we're not alone. We have each other." Sarah looked around the room. At Nia. At Elena. At the others. "What is this place?" she asked. "A safe house," Nia said. "A place where women like us can come and be protected." "And once you're ready, you can help," I added. "Protect others. Build something bigger than just survival."

I already mind link the other female leaders while I'm sure Hunter did the same because I can sense him mind linking his commanders. "I'll give an order to the pack to go in lockdown while others stand guard on the border. Can you manage the safe house?" "Yes, leave it to me, Alpha," I assured him that made him smile a bit. Going into panic and fear will not solve any of this, so that is why I am doing my best to be calm and composed. The safe house is one of the safe haven for mostly women and children of the pack. Those who can't fight and those who are not eligible to fight are the ones who'll get to the safe house first during a war breakdown.

Someone said. “I'm going to reinforce more security for everyone to feel at ease. You all don't have to worry. No one would get past any of us in this pack. I promise you that everyone would be safe as long as I'm here.”

I spoke up then. "You're right, we got lucky. This could have gone so much worse and you know what? If it had, we would have handled it. All of us. We would have taken care of each other and made it through. There is no way to prevent this. There is nothing we can do to stop bad things from happening, that's just life. Life is a bully sometimes but you have us now and always. Your friends and family. People who love you no matter what. We are how you can feel safe. Knowing that no matter what comes our way, we can deal with it, together. Look up. Look at them. They are our safety. They are our peace" I said and Layla looked up and saw everyone.

As I enter, I see she is reading quietly and the boys are in their cribs sleeping like little angels. “Any problems?” I ask, startling Mary from her focus. “Oh, Luna! Yes. They are sweet boys, - ” She started before howling interrupted us. “Shit! Rogues! Mary, get the boys. Get into the safe room. Do not come out until you are cleared. Remember the safe word!” That was something else I thought to add as a security measure. In case anyone starts calling, Mary would not come out unless one of the six people who knew the safe word called it out. Those six are Austin, Renz, Jessup, Lacey, Jane and me.

I was waiting in the VIP lounge at the airport when a message flashed on the screen. It was the final confirmation letter of my deployment to a war-torn country. "Dear Mr. Marcus Shaffer, according to the International Peacekeeping Forces Special Regulation, clause 17 of the Non-Disclosure Act, you have agreed to join the body disposal team's "Net Zero Action Plan". "Flight CE1316 will be involved in a staged flight disaster, and you will forever lose your citizenship in your home country. Do you agree to proceed?"

I called after him. He stopped and turned around. “What?” “Look, I know this is your house, but I’d feel safer if you left the spare keys with me. Please.” For a moment, he simply stared at me. Then he dropped the keys into my hand and walked away, slamming the door behind him. I couldn’t tell whether he was angry or hurt. Either way, a strange ache settled in my chest. Deep down, I felt bad for him.
