Safe (The Shielded Series Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
He’d called Estoria, the first GEC he’d offered sanctuary to, and told her to gather the others in the great room. Best to do the introductions all at once. Better to outnumber the outsiders upfront. He wanted to trust them wholeheartedly, but that would be pretty stupid. He and the others had gone undetected as GECs all this time by not being stupid. And then I go and tell three outsiders I’m a GEC. Nice going. What had caused the false sense of trustworthiness when it came to Darina? Was it false? Was he picking up on… on something? Hell, he hated having doubts. He hated putting his fellow GECs at risk. He hated being out of the lab. He hated how his gaze kept roaming to Darina as she silently followed him, taking in her surroundings. Cop instincts most likely. She was probably looking for the quickest way to leave should the need arise. Why did that thought bug him? He didn’t want her to want to leave. Shaking his head, he led them up the half-log front steps, pausing when Ghared crouched to inspect the stairs more closely.
