The Hidden Place Novels & Stories

She wasn’t ready to die. “I have a place,” Karan said, his voice lower now. “No one will find you there.” The baby whimpered as if sensing the fear in the air. Hema pressed a kiss to her forehead before passing her gently into Karan’s arms. Then she followed him. ⸻ The Hiding Place Karan’s house was small, but old. Built with secrets. He led her through the narrow corridor, past the kitchen, past the back door, then up a creaking flight of stairs. At the top was a storeroom—a cluttered space filled with forgotten furniture, boxes of old clothes, and dust-covered trunks.

Trained ears catching a sound, a scent, something out of place. They knew. “They saw us,” I confirmed quietly into the mic. Nyra’s voice came through again. Smooth. Pleased. “Good. Let them. You have three minutes to disappear.” She didn’t say what would happen in minute four. She didn’t have to. Safehouse – Unknown Location The hideout was buried deep in the hills, a brutalist skeleton of concrete and steel. There were no windows, no clocks. Just cold air and colder silence. It was perfect.

Sara ushered him to the dimly lit table where a crystal was glued to a single spot on a map of Transylvania. "She's in a place called Hoia Baciu Forest, a famously believed haunted forest in Romania. In the centre of the forest is an ancient castle hidden with a powerful spell, so this castle has been hidden for centuries," Sara explained and showed him pictures. The forest was eerie and yes, definitely creepy. In one of the photos was a bird's eye view of the forest and as Sara said, in the middle of the forest was an empty field, most likely where the castle was. It's no wonder that no human has ever discovered it by accident, Dmitri thought, because surely Madeline does have the power to

The place was well-hidden. "We can't call for recall! They will surely pinpoint our location when we attempt to recall. That means we can't return to the healing base yet." "Then we should find a place to hide," I whispered, aware that we were outnumbered. "Follow me," he instructed, crouching down and parting the thick carpet of moss. As the moss strands fell away, they revealed a hidden tunnel beneath the mound of trees. He entered first.

I grab her waist holding her so she doesn’t manually unlock the door and jump out. “STOP IT ROSALIE YOURE GONNA MAKE ME WRECK!! I scream WE’RE ALMOST THERE!” My nerves are shot. I’m drinking a beer and smoking the whole pack of cigarettes when we get there. The car becomes deathly quiet. We pull in and she angrily directs me to their hidden spot. It’s hid back near a large waterfall that not many people know about. Her family’s secret hidden hide out looks like a slice of paradise. I wish I could appreciate it right now but I have a hot headed brunette that I love possibly contemplating how to kill me and bury me in the woods.

He made his bed, now it was time to sleep in it. "I should get dressed, Prince Mitchalus." I hurriedly added, "Wouldn't want your subjects to think something was going on in here. After all, you're supposed to be an honorable man." I scooted to the bathroom and closed the door behind me. I didn't want to hear whatever excuse he had cooked up in that head of his. We were done and nothing was going to change my mind. By the time I got dressed, an entire plan swam in my head. The perfect place to hide out was at the shelter for merfolks. Once I was already registered, they wouldn't have a problem finding me somewhere to stay. I just couldn't tell them who I was.

"There’s so much to see! I have to show you all my favorite places!" Kayla followed closely behind, her excitement growing as they ventured from one place to another. They visited Caleb’s secret hideout in the woods, a small, quiet spot surrounded by tall trees that provided a sense of peace and adventure all at once. Next, they stopped by the lake, its surface shimmering under the midday sun, where Caleb told her stories of the times he had raced with the other kids and the thrilling dives he had taken off the rocks.

It was a location so shrouded in obscurity that even Ardolf, a powerful werewolf and shapeshifter with a keen nose for danger, couldn't fathom its existence. The hideout stood nestled within a dense thicket of ancient trees that had witnessed the passage of time itself. Towering oaks and gnarled pines formed a natural fortress, their interwoven branches a formidable shield against the outside world. The entrance, a seemingly innocuous crevice between two colossal boulders, was cloaked by a thick curtain of ivy that danced in the whispering winds. Only those who knew the secret of the hidden passage could reveal the path to its heart.

She cried more and my heart clinched as I felt pity for her "There's a warehouse deep in the forest if you go north, that's where he is hiding the kids and Lia and maybe himself. You wouldn't notice quickly as it's under ground but you'll find the entrance if you look hard enough" joy coursed through me and I let out a breathe I didn't even know I was holding "Why are you telling me this?" I wasn't stupid enough to think their wasn't a catch

It was the complete opposite of that Balck Forest…this was—light, comfort, a beautiful haven. “This…” I whispered. “Where are we?” Ronan, standing ahead of us, turned back with a grin. “Welcome to the heart of the Hidden Realm. Only a few humans can ever step here, and most of them are extremely special. It is the intersection of all the continents, the center of everything in existence.” My eyes widened as I turned slowly, trying to take everything in. He chuckled at my shocked face. “I know. Pretty, isn’t it?” Theo was equally stunned, looking around with his mouth slightly open. Celina clutched her bag tightly, muttering, “I feel like I’m in a dream.”
