🏃💨I'm not fluent in English. İt's my first time writing
You watched as your teammates brainstorm, trying desperatly to find a solution to this mess. You just leaned back on your chair, listening half heartedly.
You knew better than to try and speak your mind. They didn’t listen to you that much, you learned it hard way. You manage yourself just fine. You gaze slide back to the file at the edge of your desk. Reaching a hand out to catch it between your fingers and pull it to yourself, going unnoticed.
But that didn't mean you were going to turn blind eye to the situation in hand. İt was still your job. Two demi-humans. Snow leopard. Rare. Niko and Eliza. Eliza was pregnant with cubs, fragile and weak and Niko was.. Brooding. He was looming over Eliza every second, growling at any body that got closer then six feet. They seperated them when Niko get aggressive, deeming he might hurt or distress Eliza or the cubs.
Now everybody was suffering through consequences. Eliza was weak, hiding in her room, not letting anyone close to check on her. Niko refused to move from his nest or reachting to anyone. The solution was clear in your eyes but the scientists had closed it the moment someone else suggested it, saying Niko might lash out to his mate after not seeing her that long.
Niko was suffering through depression and Eliza was distressed enough to harm herself or the cubs. İt was clear. They just didn't see it yet.
You looked up as the break bell echoed in the room. Your co-workers pulled them self together and start to leave the room, the door closing behind them as the last person leave.
You glance back at the monitor displaying Niko's still presence in his keep the at the door. A determination surge in your chest. Your eyes narrowing. Half of the staff was probably on the lunch break on the mess hall. Forty-five minutes of break. The hallway between Eliza and Niko's keep wasn't that long...
Was it illegal? Kinda. Was it going to deter you? Probably not.
You rise from your seat, grabing your key card. You move to the monitor displayed security feed. You almost feel bad as you enable the cameras. Key word, almost.
You made your way out of monitoring room, walking down the hall hurriedly. Everybody was already at lunch. Good. You glanced the cameras, the lights blinking red. Even better.
You quickly make your way to Eliza's keep, swiping your card to lock, the "Ding" echoed in the silent hallway as the door slide open.
You step inside the keep that was decorated to copy a comforting habitat for the demi inside. You had to search for a while since Eliza was hiding from eye sight.
You find her huddled in a corner behind a flat rock, chest heaving, eyes darting, four months belly hiding under her clothests. A pang stabbed itself in your chest. "Hey.." Your voice come out soft, aiming to sooth. Eliza backed away, this wasn't going to be easy. But you didn't had too much time.
"Shh Eliza... I know, you are scared." You shed your jacket off, crouching down on floor. You slid it in her way, not moving any closer. "I'm not going to hurt you.. I'm here to bring you back to your mate." Neither of you moved seconds bleed into minutes, you were getting desperate but not impatient.
Finaly, what felt like hours, only six minutes, Eliza moved, you first thought she was going to flee. Fortunely, she didn't. Her gaze stayed on you as she slowly reach out and grasped your jacket, pulling it to her chest and going back to her corner.
A smile pulled on your lips. "Good girl.. See? Come on. Come here.." You slowly rise to your feets, hands out in front of you as you approach her slowly.
Step by agonazingly slow step, you stood in front of her, hand reached out to her. Eliza looked skeptical, you couldn't blame her, until finaly she lend you her clawed hand. You let out a breath you didn't know you were holding.
She let you help her up to her feets. You lead her to door, glancing at her one last time before unlocking the door with a swipe of your card.
You peek out to both sides, no guard, no one. You lead her out. She trail behind you, a nervous mess. She was slow, you had to slow your steps to lead her. Every noise spiked your nerves. İf you got caught you surely will be fired before you can blink. Because your team didn't know, no one literally know. But you were a proffesional as well, that's the only reason you got where you were.
When you finaly stoped in front of Niko's keep door, you realized Eliza wasn't as jumpy as she was in her keep. Probably already catching her mates scent. You took a breath, swipe the card to the lock. The door slide open painfully slow, it give you time to take your jacket from Eliza before leading her inside.
Niko was laying on cool grass, eyes glued to ceiling. Then his white, snow leopard ears twitched. Tensing up. He shifted. Eyes locking on you and Eliza. You release Eliza's hand, not wanting to risk Niko biting it clean off, steping back.
Niko was on his feet instantly, approaching Eliza who was visibly calmer. He grasped her Amr and pulled her closer, burying his nose in the crook of her neck like making sure she was real and still the same mate.
İt was cute, you couldn't help your smile. Until it was not. Niko's eyes snapped open, locking on you. A aggressive growl building up his chest. Ah, right. He is aggressive when Eliza is around. But before you can escape neither he could lunge at your Eliza nuzzled closer to him, a noise leaved her like she was cutting his bullshit off. Niko's body didn't relaxed fully, still aware of your presence, but trusting his mate. Stil, he made a growl that clearly meant he was warning you.
Taking a hint, you back away to door, unlocked it and slip out before it even open fully. Relife flood in your chest, then panic. You glance at your arm watch. 14.00. You only had fifteen minute left before lunch break is over.
You run back to monitoring room, barging inside. Still empty. You rush to security feed, opening the system takes more time then shutting them down. Six minutes. Why does this take so long? You shrug your jacket back on. Alright, fourteen minutes. You rush to mess hall, because you cant be in monitoring room, sitting there calmly while the monitor displays Niko and Eliza together. You snatch a tray, fill with what's left and sit down at a empty corner table.
You stuff your food into your mouth as your gaze scan the room. No one noticed you are late, your team is sitting at one of the tables in the middle, talking animatedly. A sigh leaves your lips. You are safe.
You spent whats left of the break eating, more like stuffing your mouth with food. When you get back to monitoring room, the whole team is panicking at the sight of Eliza in Niko's keep. You slip inside unnoticed, take a seat and watch the chaos unreveal.
That's it! Not sure if I will write a second part!
