this.”
Tears streamed down her face and she swiped
at them in fear for Nathan and for her. BioGen would
probably punish her as well, and the things they could
do terrified her. She choked, her body shaking, and her
pulse rate went through the roof.

only way to do this is to hire a Companion to keep her occupied.

Still gripping his jacket and feeling shaky, she
nodded and whispered, “I do trust you, Nathan.”
With an encouraging look he reassured her,
“Good. Just hold on tight and I’ll get us back to The
Inspire. You just be ready with that magic necklace of
yours to get us back into the building so no one will

make it in time, Crystal saw two Nul guards approaching with BioGen uniforms on, evidently making their
last rounds. Pulling back against Nathan’s forward progression, she urgently whispered, “Nathan, BioGen
guards.”
Immediately, Nathan steered both of them off
the blacktop and over to one of the large trees bordering
along the path. As soon as they were under the large
spread of branches he spun her around and pushed her
back against the trunk. The bark was rough but Nathan’s body surrounding and pressing against her was
rock hard. He felt good and she felt protected but the
Nul’s were getting so close and she could see them
watching. She started to shake with nerves because she
was sure they were going to get caught.
Nathan shifted slightly blocking her completely from the guard’s view. He leaned against his arm
which he had positioned above her forming a protective
cocoon around her. He leaned down just enough so he
could push her hood back with his free hand and put his
lips near her ear. Crystal could feel his warm breath
brush against her and the sensation made her shiver for
a different reason.
