Chapter 6

“You’re going to leave me with a few pints, right?” Killian asked the technician who’d just taken his tenth blood sample of the day.

Ford—the male with black eyes and a scar down the right side of his face—replied dryly, “Try and think of it like we’re already removing our DNA from you.”

Killian sniffed. “Just feels like you’re bleeding me dry. Not exactly what I thought was going to happen.”

Jean-Baptiste, who left the three other techs on the opposite side of the room to their computer screens and DNA processing and analysis equipment, walked over to him. “What were you thinking?”

“Well, I was hoping you’d have…an antidote. Something that could go right into my bloodstream and kill whatever they injected me with.”

The massive, tatted-up doctor laughed. “Oh, if only it was that simple. We’ve got urine, saliva tests, MRI…but we’re going to need more blood. Blood tells us everything. A basic metabolic panel to reveal any diseases you might have, how the organs are functioning. And then an analysis of proteins, DNA and RNA—see what’s happening from those all-powerful injections.”

“Sounds like you have some experience with this already,” Killian said. “A protocol in place.” Back in the lab, toward the latter part of his “stay,” he’d heard talk of Pantera prisoners who had been experimented on. It was those days especially when he couldn’t help despising his own species. Nothing was sacred. Not even life.

Raphael walked in then, took a quick look around, and headed straight for Killian.

“Do what you gotta do, Doc,” Killian told Jean-Baptiste, dropping back against the pillow. “I think I’m going to be hanging out here a while.”

“Five hours and counting.” Raphael handed him a donut wrapped in a napkin. Chocolate glazed. Then pulled up a chair. “Eat it. It’ll help.”

“I’m fine, man.”

“That’s right. I forgot. Super solider.” His brows lifted. “But loss of blood is loss of blood. No matter who or what we are.”

True that. And his stomach was making all kinds of noise, so…he took a bite. Then another. “Thanks.”

Raphael nodded. “Now, Benson Enterprises. What do you know about them?”

The male wasted no time. Not that Killian blamed him. They both wanted answers. “Benson was the name of the clinic. Given to me by my commanding officer when I requested an eval, or something to help with my PTSD.”

The leader’s pupils dilated. “Commanding officer’s name?”

Killian stalled out for a second. The guy had a family, wife, and kids. He didn’t want to—

“Just need all the information, Mr. O’Roarke,” Raphael said as if reading his mind. “I’ve got to connect the dots.”

Killian eyed the male. “I’ve known the guy for years, served under him. I’m sure he knew nothing about what was going to happen to me. He’d never send a man under his command into danger unprotected like that. I don’t want him or his family hurt.”

Raphael nodded.

Killian wasn’t at all sure that the Pantera followed the same honor code he did, but they were trusting him, letting him inside their world. Helping him.
