Jed ruthlessly strangled his own sexual thoughts as he focused in on Elena’s senses. The fact that he could feel her desire too wasn’t helping his own raging need to go away that easily.

He’d done what he did out of reflex. He told himself that it was necessary, but a part of him regretted that he had to. He pushed the feeling away. Careful. Elena was beginning to get wisps of his thoughts too. This brainwave entrainment experiment was unpredictable; no one knew exactly how she or he was going to be affected with prolonged synchronization.

Capturing each other’s thought-images as a side effect was logical. If he’d been doing it to her, it was also logical that she would probably be able to do it to him too. His lips quirked. So far, it was fortunate that they didn’t actually read each other’s minds. He didn’t think that would be possible, seeing that the brain generated a multitude of random thoughts and sensations in a second.

Jed shook off the analysis. Later. Questions and analysis would make them inattentive and put Elena in danger. He concentrated on Elena’s perception of this new wing of Stratter’s Pointe. He shouldn’t be surprised that the old building had been renovated and added on to. After all, it’d been twenty years or longer.

This new section looked nothing like the rest of the place. Very clinical, like a hospital. Stratter’s hadn’t had a medical wing when he was there.

“There are bars on the inside of windows on this floor, Hades.”

“Yes, I’m seeing them.” Jed frowned. Prisoners in need of medical attention? At Stratter’s? Things had changed.

“There’s a reason why I bilocated here, Hades. Our intruder is somewhere in this place with bars in the windows that smells of antiseptic. I’m going to go check out a few of the rooms.”

“Your attacker, Elena. Be careful.”

The intruder somehow had managed to do something to Elena. In Jed’s book, that made him dangerous. That they had to deal with something as yet unknown, someone who could possibly hurt Elena while in remote-viewing state, didn’t sit well with him. It was difficult to protect someone from the unknown and it was his job to make sure she remained safe.

“I hear something. Follow it?”

“Yes.”

Jed let go of his thoughts about his past and concentrated on Elena. He knew, from previous experience, if he just kept quiet and let her work instinctively, she would relax enough to allow their thoughts to immerse even more, thus projecting her experience on him naturally. When Elena wasn’t concentrating too much on being tied to him, he’d found that her thought-images even projected themselves into the virtual reality environment, that he could see her surroundings with his eyes open. It was as if he’d bilocated with her. It didn’t happen often because they were both controlling persons by nature; sooner or later their self-consciousness intruded and he would find himself blinking away the sudden double vision.

He saw four people in a room. One of them was curled in a fetal position on the bed.
