Chapter 24

TIA WALKED UPSTAIRS, wishing she had a bedroom so she could throw herself on her bed and cry. Not that she was the crying sort but damn it, today just felt like that type of day. At least to hide away and be alone for awhile. She could try to sleep but it wouldn’t work with her head all messed up.

How could she be hooked up with a cop? God she was an idiot.

She was also a fool for making it matter so much.

He was right. Not all cops were bad. Just because she’d had a horrible experience didn’t mean they were all like that.

Dean certainly wasn’t. But he might turn on her and do something to screw her over eventually. She hoped that was her history talking. Seriously, he’d bent over backwards to help her so far. So good cops did exist. And she shouldn’t be mad at him. She sat down on the bed and buried her face in her hands. What the hell was she supposed to do? She had nowhere to go and this was a waiting game that would never end. The asshole had to be connected to the lab. No one else knew she existed. No one ever had. This had to be related to the lab. And she couldn’t squelch the fear that somehow Wilhelm had faked his death and was after her himself. He’d never forgive her for escaping a second time.

The man she’d seen at the restaurant was vaguely familiar, as if he’d been at the lab with her, but had he been Wilhelm’s assistant? A grad student or another patient?

She frowned, letting her hand drop away. Was it possible to gain Wilhelm’s records? A list of who’d been put through his program. Those who stayed. Those who failed out? That would at least give them a list of where to start. Hell, the cops should know who he was by the damn fingerprints he’d left behind. Her prints were taken when she’d first arrived at the lab. The process had terrified her. She’d done nothing wrong. They’d said they needed them for their security clearance process.

It had been minor to all the other infractions. Not the least of which was to keep her a prisoner for all those years. Like what the hell? How had that been legal? Or okay with society? She didn’t even want to think about her family and their responsibility in this. She had a brother – were her parents still alive? Her brother? Did she care?

Mostly on a curiosity level but other than that, no.

At least she didn’t think so…

She groaned. All of that had been taken away from her a long time ago. It was stupid to care. Stupid to wonder. If they’d wanted anything to do with her, they always knew where to find her. Except her brother.

He likely didn’t know she existed.

Sad. For both of them.

“Are you okay?”

Dean. Damn.

“I’m fine.”

“Well, you look more than fine to me.”
