CHAPTER 11

EMERY

Emery’s breathing, pulse, and heartbeat didn’t return to anything resembling normal until she’d returned to her office and made herself a cup of coffee. Oh, she knew people who would say pouring a cup of strong, black coffee and imbibing the caffeine wouldn’t do anything good for your nerves, but Emery had always found just the opposite. A good cup of coffee and closing her eyes for a moment allowed her to clear her thoughts and do a reset of her emotions.

Now what? She knew her movements were being monitored here at work, and if some of the rumors she’d heard were true, they were most likely following her outside the complex. She smiled to herself—that had to be one of the most boring jobs she could think of. But if NLGP was as nefarious as she thought, it wouldn’t hurt for her to figure out a way to scan her flat to see if there were any electronic bugs.

She ran a scan on her cell phone. She had an app that would tell her if there were any tracking devices on it—either to give away where she was or to intercept her phone calls, browsing record, or phone numbers she used. The scan showed she was clean, and she made a mental note to run a scan each morning and night and anytime she had to leave her phone somewhere.

Feeling confident that her cell phone was not being monitored, she located and downloaded an app that would allow her to use her cell phone to check her SUV and flat for any kind of electronic bugs. She was fairly sure there wasn’t an inch of the NLGP complex that wasn’t monitored, but she figured scanning it would alert them that she was on to their game. The longer she could play dumb, the safer she and Mason would be.

She really needed to talk to Mason. For one thing, she needed his calming presence. For another, she wasn’t quite sure what her next move should be. Until she could figure that out, she would do some real work on her genetic therapies, work on figuring out how and when to deliver the cave lion DNA to Mason, and try to figure out a way she could get them out of here sooner rather than later.

Emery called the security desk and asked for Terry. When he answered she said, “Terry, it’s Dr. Smoak. There was a hiccup in my security clearance this morning. Could you see if it’s been restored to allow me to see Dr. Payne?”

“Sure, Dr. Smoak, let me check that for you.” There was a pause. “Yes ma’am. All taken care of.”

The end of the day was approaching far more quickly than she had expected it to. She was certain if Kam wasn’t onto them, she would be soon. The time of dithering about the ethics of turning Mason was past. She needed to get the process started, and fast. She could fake experiments and therapies, leaving
