“I was a child, but I was old enough to know better. I didn’t know how to say no. I was the biggest asset to my father’s work. I was the protégé. Then I learned that they were going to make others just like me. I couldn’t let that happen. Couldn’t put other people through what I’d gone through.

“Victor, my father, started on young men. The drugs he poured into them sent some mad. That was at best. At worst, their brains grew too fast. They grew and grew and ...” I shuddered remembering husks of men, screaming in pain, bleeding from their ears as their brains fell apart in front of my eyes.

“What made those men so different from you?” Julius asked.

I shrugged. “It takes years and a developing brain to make the changes he did with me. He’d started on me when I was a baby. I was sick all the time, but looking back, it was the drugs he filled me with. He poured drugs into me that made certain parts of my brain develop larger and stronger than normal. I’d been genetically modified from birth. My body was irrevocably changed.”

I choked back the sob that hurt my throat. I’d started and the damn had broken. I couldn’t stop. It all came back to me, and I relived the hell that was my life. “I took a chance and ran. I got away. I escaped. I didn’t stop running for years. I eluded them. Imagine that, a sixteen-year-old managing to escape the most highly trained organization in Australia. I was free for the first time in my life. I made a life for myself, but I was never anywhere for long. I was too scared to make any friends. To stay at any job. Then one day, I got sick. I was slow. I paid the price, and they caught me. After eight years of freedom, I got complacent. Thought my father had given up. That he’d lost interest in me.

“My father tried to make me do those things again, but I’d learned that normal people didn’t do things like that. Those things were evil. What Victor had made me was an abomination of nature.”

Julius’s hand clenched my arm, but I hardly felt it. “Trust me when I say you are not an abomination. You are a survivor. You have to believe in yourself.”

I woke to rough hands tugging off my clothes. My vision was a whirl of fetid breath, body odor, male strength, and desperation. I hit out, but a fist slammed into my chin, tilting my world. He took that moment to push my feeble hands aside and work at the waistband of my jeans. The button came free, the zip scuffed open. The top of my jeans was peeled away, leaving me open and vulnerable.

I screamed, kicked, raked my fingernails over his flesh, but it didn’t deter the stench of sexual strain that rode in waves from his body. I sucked them in, and it made my stomach heave and buck in response.
