The Neighborhood Keeper Chapter 1
I had been on a job hunt since graduation, but nothing had panned out. So, a buddy of mine then suggested a security job in an upscale neighborhood.I didn’t care for the job at first. As a top-tier college graduate, I couldn’t fathom taking a blue-collar job.My buddy then said, “The job pays 30 thousand dollars a month with full social security benefits and bonuses for good performance.”A security guard raking in 30 thousand dollars? Unbelievable. After a day of hesitation, I attended the job interview. The interviewer was a middle-aged woman with a one-inch scar running along the corner of her eye.She introduced herself as Emmy. “I’ve reviewed your resume.” Emmy scrutinized me from head to toe for three whole minutes, her arms folded, even demanding that I got up and do a turn for her.Then, she said emotionlessly, “Strip.” Taken aback, I nervously glanced at the door. “I don’t think it’s a good idea.” Emmy clicked her tongue in annoyance. “This position is
The Neighborhood Keeper Chapter 2
With the paperwork out of the way, Emmy took me around the neighborhood. She gave me a tour on foot. “The homes here are standalone villas, and the residents are exclusively women…”My attention was diverted from Emmy’s introduction as an approaching woman caught my eye. She wore plain, casual attire, her thick curls cascading down her chest. The woman was a vision of beauty. It was the first time I had seen a woman more beautiful than a celebrity in real life. She took my breath away. I only managed to break free from the spell when the stunning woman spoke. “Is he the new guy, Emmy?” Her sweet voice was like music to my ears. Though she was talking to Emmy, her eyes fixated on me. Her gaze was inquisitive, albeit more subtle than Emmy’s. It seemed Emmy and the pretty lady were acquainted. “Yes, he is. His name is Brook D’Amico. He’s highly educated and intellectually gifted.” Emmy paused and blinked before drawling. “He’s a total package.” Miss Curls spared me another

“Yay! You’re a good person, Brook.” Hannah took my hand and pulled me to the bed. She ran her hand down the center of the bed, marking a visible line. “Alright. I’ll sleep on the left, and you take the right.” I was about to share a bed with a beautiful woman. Sure, we were just sleeping in our corners, but emotions ran through me. I climbed into bed, feeling flustered and stiff. Once Hannah turned off the lights, I relaxed my tense muscles. With the lights out, a whole new world of sensations opened up.The delicate scent of Hannah drifted to my senses. I couldn’t get the image of her murmuring my name out of my head. Her hot body and long legs filled my mind. Before long, I drifted off to sleep. While half-asleep, a thought entered my mind. I only wanted to cop a feel. It would just be a quick one. With that in mind, I allowed my hand to creep up Hannah’s body. The moment I felt her delicate skin, a thrill ran through me. Her skin was smooth to the tou
The Neighborhood Keeper Chapter 4
I dreamed of this moment since I first met Hannah. It never occurred to me that my fantasy would come true so soon. One night was all it took to bring me and Hannah close together. In the days to come, we often hung out at her villa. We couldn’t keep our hands off each other, only exploring our chemistry within the privacy of the villa. Whenever I tried to express my feelings to her, she would change the subject. “We’re happy, aren’t we? Isn’t that good enough, Brook? “Why bother with labels?”She appeared hesitant to commit to a relationship with me. I was frustrated, but deep down, I was aware of the gap between us. Hannah lived in a villa and enjoyed the finest things in life. I was just a fresh graduate, trying to find my feet. That was when we came to an unspoken agreement. I asked nothing about her life; she didn’t dig into mine. We simply savored the present and enjoyed each other’s company. As always, I was making my way to Villa No. 3 one day after m
The Neighborhood Keeper Chapter 5
Sparing me the details, Emmy simply told me to do my job. “If you want out, I can release you with one month of wages.” I fell silent for a bit before shaking my head. There was no way I could find another job paying 30 thousand dollars a month. Besides, I hadn’t figured out what was up with Hannah. My tone was bitter. “Who was that man, Emmy?” Hannah pretended not to know me in the man’s presence. She called the man Daddy. I doubted a father would fondle his daughter. Emmy was a bit frustrated with me. “I thought you were smarter than this. You sure are naïve. “You’re a college grad. I’m sure you can figure out what an older man and a younger woman have in common.“Wise up. At least you got something out of it.” She kicked me peevishly. “You’re relieved for tonight. I’m giving you tomorrow off, too.” I went back to my dorm in a daze. I lay in bed, tossing and turning. Later that night, I snuck back to Villa No. 3.The Maybach was still there. It to
The Neighborhood Keeper Chapter 6
After that day, I cut off all contact with Hannah. Even when she invited me to Villa No. 3, I declined. One reason was to protect my sad ego. I had also gone back and reviewed the job contract. There were indeed some absurd job requirements buried in the contract. I was expected to relieve the needs of the residents when required. It blew my mind. When I contacted Emmy about the contract, she gave me a look of disdain. “What? Do you actually think you lost out?“You’ve met these ladies. You’re clearly out of their league. “The idea of this whole thing started because they couldn’t leave the place.“If you can’t cut it, quit now.” The residents couldn’t leave the place. It sank in right there and then how things didn’t add up in the neighborhood. I had never come across male residents around the area, nor were the residents ever seen leaving the neighborhood. I suspected they were trapped in the community.Emmy read my mind. She patted my shoulder with a sco

Following Hannah’s death, I wasn’t allowed in the neighborhood for a long time. Emmy even put me on an extended vacation. By the time I came back, a new resident had taken up Villa No. 1. I didn’t know how Emmy did it.However, Hannah disappeared from the world without a trace. No family came to give their last goodbyes. It was as if she had never existed. I didn’t feel sad in the slightest. Now that I was back at work, I often showed up in several villas. The residents loved me, some even taking their arrangement with me seriously. Claire from Villa No. 2 expressed her thoughts about eloping with me. I told Emmy about it, prompting an immediate reproach on Claire. Emmy’s trust in me grew, and I was tasked with more responsibilities. Slowly but gradually, I learned about the founder of the Caged Canary community. I also found out about Emmy’s past. Emmy was the previous resident of Villa No. 1. Due to her age, she stepped down from her active role. She told
