Trust None Novels & Stories

I took a deep breath and made my way over. “Glad you came,” he said, his smile warm. “Thanks for meeting me. What is this “past” stuff all about?” I said, trying to sound busy and annoyed when realistically, I had nothing to do. “Are you ready to hear what I know?” he asked, his eyes searching mine. “Yes, but how do I know what you're saying is true?” I replied. He nodded slowly. “Trust is earned, not given. I get that. But I can share information that could change everything for you.”

"I've built a large client base, and once I start advertising your resort to my people, they'll come swarming." "That's too good to be true," Tom huffs. "I don't know what you're trying to play at, but..." "Trust," Atlas counters, cutting the man off. "There is no game at all. I have always provided my clients with the utmost care and trust. Because of that, they have faith in the homes, businesses, and resorts that I advertise to them." For a moment, neither man speaks as they consider Atlas' words, but from the look on their faces, it's clear that they still don't quite believe him.

"I'm troubled." He told her the entire matter. Lai felt that it was easy. "You say you trust this grandpa. Then you trust him. Bjt blind trust is not good. Sometimes the enemy is in our midst so you don't have any final result till you try to know. Just find it. You wouldn't feel bad later if you missed something now." "I know. I just don't want to doubt my family. It's like I'm doubtful of everyone. It's paranoid."

I exhaled softly, the answer coming easier than I expected. "It feels steady." A pause. "And it feels right." He drummed his fingers lightly against the desk, filling the brief silence between us. "Trust is usually built on evidence, Mr. Kingsley. What evidence do you have?" My lips twitched faintly, more out of irony than amusement. "None." "Then what exactly are you trusting?" "I..." I searched for something, but came up empty. Damn it. Dr. Alonso pushed back from his chair and rose to his feet.

“It’s cute, the way you think this is a war you can win. You’re three people with a stolen drive. We’re the world’s most trusted company.” Kim looked up from the console. “That trust is a lie. And it’s about to collapse.” To be continued...

"One of ours. Been with us five years." "Trust," I said, pushing back from the chair, "is so overrated."

Goodness called me again, moving closer, "you are free to make your own decisions but don't you dare turn your back on me." "I am not turning my back on you rather I am making you understand the reality of life. You can't trust anyone in this world because at the appropriate time, your connection with that person would be broken. I don't trust friendship neither do I trust love. Friendship and love are two sides of a coin, sitting on a table with one always on top of the other." "So, you don't believe in marriage?"

We made our way further towards the trap when we heard a voice, it was a female voice and mind you it was the most beautiful voice I've heard, even in her scared state....she started blabbing about how she doesn't taste sweet or how the gods won't accept her flesh, the most funny one was her sayings no one will buy her organs as they won't work without her, she thought we were carnivores, she must have really been scared, my parents and sister fell into a fit of laughter but I just managed a smile, the soul must have been scared and I was the one

He asked Nick once again, " And Zieve is....... Zieve Stocks?..... our Zie?" Nick nodded again and said," Yes, Uncle Shera! You took too long to recognise us and we took too long to understand you." Shera had a lot of questions but his experience had made him as firm as a rock, so he looked at Nick and asked," What if you are lying? Tell me something that make me believe you!" Nick knew this was going to come, and he wasn't surprised. It was one of the most important things in their line of work. You cannot trust your enemy by mere words. Your enemy will try to lure you in their trap and if you fall for their words, you will be done.

“But there is one problem, Luke. Our group already is at a disadvantage. I lost the flag. I don’t have it. I am sure you want to ally yourself with a group with a flag, not one without it.” “I don’t believe you. How can you lose something so important?” I shrugged. “Well, it happened. I cried about it for a few hours. I can’t do anything about it.” “Then you won’t object to me checking you.” “Trust starts from actions. If you say that you don’t believe me, it means you don’t trust me. So this alliance won’t work.” Marina grabbed my arm and pulled me away again. “You lost the flag?” “Well, you didn’t ask about it. We can always fight for one.”
