The woman who'd wept during injection was now lying on a cot, her body wracked with visible chills. Her temperature, according to the monitor above her bed, was 101.2 degrees Fahrenheit. Her heart rate was elevated. Her respiratory rate was climbing.Psychological stress had evolved into physiological reality.The virus was already replicating."Observe the speed of symptom onset," Elizabeth said, making notes. "Most subjects begin showing measurable physical symptoms within 8-12 hours. The psychological stress accelerates viral replication....the immune system's response to fear hormones actually creates a more permissive environment for the virus."Fear kills faster.That was the implication.The woman's eyes were closed, but her facial muscles were tight with discomfort. Her hands gripped the edges of the cot like she was trying to hold onto something solid while her body betrayed her."Will she experience pain?" Dimitri asked."Significant pain, yes," Elizabeth replied. "Headaches

The next four explosions detonated in carefully calculated sequence as Dimitri moved upward through the facility.Fourth explosion: the mechanical room on ground level—bringing down the primary structural support for the entire eastern wing.Fifth explosion: the cafeteria area...destroying the secondary support columns.Sixth explosion: the administrative offices, collapsing the upper portions of the western wing.Seventh explosion: the research wing....the final, catastrophic blast that would seal the doom of everything The Covenant had built.The facility was coming down around them.Dust filled the corridors. Debris rained from above. The structure groaned and shrieked as steel twisted and concrete fractured. Emergency lighting systems were failing, leaving only the flickering red of backup power.Dimitri ran.He moved through the chaos with the precision of a man who'd memorized every exit route, every corridor, every turn. Behind him, the building was collapsing. Above him, he co

Eve looked up at him.Her eyes were dark with desire and something else...determination."Too late," she said.And then she disappeared under the covers.The first touch of her mouth on his dick made Dimitri's entire body go rigid.Hot. Wet. Perfect.She took him deep immediately...no teasing, no build-up, just the overwhelming sensation of her mouth surrounding him, her tongue moving against the underside of his shaft as she worked him with single-minded focus."Fuck," Dimitri groaned, his hand finding her head through the covers, his fingers threading through her hair. Not to control her....she was doing exactly what he needed....but just to feel connected to her.Eve hummed around him, and the vibration sent electricity up his spine.She was taking her time. Building him slowly. Her mouth moving up and down his dick in a rhythm that was calculated to drive him absolutely insane. When she reached the head, she circled it with her tongue, paying special attention to the sensitive spo

"I'm sorry," she said."So am I," Dimitri said. "But he saved millions of lives. That facility was going to deploy that virus. It would have killed entire cities. James knew that. He walked in there knowing it would probably kill him, and he did it anyway."Eve's arms came around his neck, holding him close."You saved him," she said. "You brought him home. That matters.""It wasn't enough," Dimitri said, and his voice cracked slightly. "He's still dead.""I know," Eve said. "But he's not forgotten. And because of what you both did, no one else has to die that way."They stayed like that for a long time....wrapped around each other in the cooling bathwater, the weight of what he'd done settling between them like a physical presence.Eventually, the water began to feel cold. Dimitri helped Eve out of the tub and wrapped her in a towel, then pulled another around his own shoulders.In the bedroom, they dressed silently. Eve put on soft loungewear....silk pants and a matching camisole. D

POV: DIMITRIDimitri woke to the sound of his phone buzzing insistently on the nightstand.He'd been asleep for maybe an hour, Eve sprawled across his chest, her breathing deep and even. After what had felt like days of needing her, needing to touch her, needing to feel her alive beneath him, exhaustion had finally claimed them both.The phone continued buzzing.Dimitri carefully moved Eve's arm, slid out of bed without waking her, and padded naked to the window to answer.Unknown number. But the timing....early morning, insistent, after The Covenant situation....meant only one thing.Antonio.He answered on the fourth ring."Padre." Father."I assume you've seen the news,"I have.""Covenant facility." A pause."Industrial accident, they're saying. Gas line rupture. Very unfortunate.""Very," Dimitri agreed neutrally.A silence stretched between them. Long enough to be deliberate.Dimitri knew this tactic. He'd been raised by it. Antonio would wait until the other person filled the si
