The Ways We Hide Novels & Stories

"It's weird... for a secret base, this is definitely too strange." “I also think so, that's why I am still unsure whether to send people there or not.” “I guess they let it that way to trick the enemy side and people who might be passing through the area into thinking that it's just an abandoned building that doesn't deserve their attention. Quoting the famous American writer, Robert Anton Wilson: "The best place to hide something is out in the open. Nobody ever thinks to look there." "I think I'm starting to understand the meaning of what you just said," Katherine nodded in understanding.

"I couldn't do anything. I couldn't just slam his ears shut or knock him out!" "The moment you guys realized you were going to eavesdrop on a conversation between mom and dad and figured out it wasn't for you, you should have slid open the closet door and yelled 'surprise' or something! Some form of indicator that you guys are there! Some sign to let them know that they are not alone, but you guys didn't do that did you? You let a Costa of all people listen in on the conversation, for all you know, he's recorded it."

There were whispers that we had plotted to overthrow my mother and claim her authority, a theory no doubt spread and enjoyed by Riddle’s leader, who now sat on Moonbane land. Helena had told us many times that survival in the wilderness would only draw more attention. "We need to hide where no one expects us to be," she had said. And so, instead of retreating to some remote mountain, we had concealed ourselves in plain sight, blending into the bustle of a large city. "make yourself being a needle in the grass," she often quoted to us, which is similar to an old Eastern saying she had once heard, which meant, "The greatest way to hide is within the crowd." She believed in it fiercely, and per

I had been hiding for seventeen weeks. Not just the pregnancy, though that was the most practical and consuming form of it. I had been hiding in a broader sense, the sense that preceded the pregnancy by years. I had hidden in the guest room of the penthouse. I had hidden in baggy scrubs and surgical gowns and supply closets with crackers. I had hidden my sketchbooks and my medical records and my own name at the clinic. I had hidden the ticket confirmation in the pages of a sketchbook and then hidden the sketchbook at the back of a table as though even my own plans were something to be ashamed of.

“I remember taking these pictures when we flew back from Vegas in the chopper. Why didn’t we see anything?” “There’s a number of ways a building can hide in plain sight,” Holden answered. “Take G****e Maps, for instance. Houses can be blurred out or taken off the map if you’re willing to pay.” “AP,” Cillian grumbled as AP’s hand blocked out a large section of the map. “Sorry, just wanted to see what it’d do. I’m not going to get cancer in my hand now, am I?” “That would be a pity,” Laya chuckled. “Isn’t that your ‘lonely man’ hand?”

This was not the strength of a human being but a furious beast. "I've had enough!" He gritted his teeth and took out his phone, the screen showing a shocking video. In the video, I was disheveled as I slumped over the examination table with my face flushed, whispering explicit words of love to Heath. My blood froze instantly. The angle of this secretly filmed video was extremely odd. It was clearly from a hidden camera that had been concealed beforehand. If this footage got out... "If this video appeared on the school website..." He leaned close to my ear, his warm breath causing goosebumps to rise all over me. "What do you think your suitors will think of their goddess?"

“Wait…” Olivia stopped instantly. She bolted to the chair where she stared at him expectantly with all her hopes up. “I’ll only talk about it because of her” The aged man muttered and she nodded while Wilder stared at him with gratitude. “A week or so ago, a lady came to meet me saying she needed to know about any secret hideout in the pack, that it was very important, a matter of life and death. She pleaded with me and I offered her the places I knew. In this pack, there are four major hideouts, each at every angle but far from the border. It’s deep inside the forest and without searching well, you’d miss it. If not carefully checked, you’ll never find it. I don’t know if she’s at any one b

A beautiful one that would not come to pass. I tried to make sure that my thoughts didn’t bleed out and I made use of the fake shield that I have built over the years to protect my mind so that the man beside me would not listen in on my thoughts. I really hoped it worked because I was dealing with an alpha of his caliber. He was quite different from what I’ve heard.

"Is this woman crazy?" "Hey, hey! She's prettier in person. How about we mess with her for a little bit?" "No fucking way. He's told us to hurry. You know what happens if we go against his words." He? My eyes dilated in curiosity. "Then let's take turns doing it in the van while the newbie drives," one of them suggested. His eyes had this evil glint as he puffed his cigarette and dropped it to the ground, trampling it as he stared at me lustfully.

- I left after saying that. I drove my car to one of the branch hideout. In every places, we have a small hideout just for protection and a decoy whenever a group of enemy launched an attack to us, but those hideout are not really where they are staying. Beside of those hideout is a simple house where they are staying. It's not suspicious at all because there's also another houses in those places. And it's not like we're some gangster. A decoy to see whose the enemy and to decrease their number. Ain't that amazing plan? We're wiping them out when they are the one who attack first.
