Here is a sneak peek at what you'll find in chapter 9:
While waiting
for Duncan to respond, Ryan thought back to the night, several days ago, when
he went back the last time to retrieve the artifact. He waited until around 3am
to slip into the house. Quietly he climbed the stairs and entered Ethan’s
bedroom. Ethan was asleep on his side. Ryan crept around to the side facing
away from Ethan and carefully pressed the injector to his bare shoulder. A
quick, quiet hiss announced that the medications had been delivered. He pressed
his lips gently to Ethan’s temple then whispered. “I’ll always take care of
you.”
“That’s not the
issue here. I wouldn’t be giving my wife medications stolen from the future.
That’s the issue. You went back into the past and administered medications from
our time to a person in the past. You DON’T have a license to practice
medicine. You don’t know what effect the medications could have on him. As a
matter of fact, I sent Terrence back to check on your lover boy and you may be
interested in knowing that he’s in the local ICU. Nobody knows what’s wrong
with him or what to do. Think about that.” He got up to leave. As he reached
the door, Duncan turned back, the look of pain once again on his face. “What
happened to you, Ryan? You were the best, with a spotless record. Now look where
you’re at; in jail, facing multiple counts of illegal interactions with people
in the past, 4 counts of medication theft, 4 counts of administering
medications without a license, and now possible murder if he dies. I wish I
knew what was going on in that head of yours.”
“I don’t care
what happens to me, as long as Ethan lives.”
“Let’s hope he
does.” Duncan closed the door behind him.
