Wednesday brief - Love Across Time chapter 18


 Chapter 18 of my Wednesday briefs story, Love Across Time is now up. You can read it by clicking here.

If you have just come across my blog and would like to read the entire story, you can click here to get to the Wednesday briefs page.

Here is a sneak peek at what you'll find in chapter 18:

Ethan looked shocked as he hung up the phone. He just sat there in silence as he digested the information he had been given.

“Well?” Chris prompted.

In a quiet voice, Ethan responded. “They’ve done it. They have a serum that could cure all STDs. They just have to test it. They need more blood from me.”

“Let’s go then.”

“Huh?”

“I’m taking you to the hospital to give more blood. This is awesome news! It’s unbelievable. From your blood comes the universal STD vaccine. My little brother.” Chris grabbed him in a headlock and rubbed his knuckles across the top of Ethan’s head.

“Hey!” Ethan squirmed out of the headlock. “They don’t know for sure if it’s going to work. Like I said, it still has to be tested.”

“Get your ass in gear, bro. The longer we wait, the longer it will take them to get the serum tested and made into the vaccine. God knows how long it will take to get it approved by the government.” Chris practically dragged him out of the shop and into his car.

Duncan, however, was prepared for such an event. Pulling out his CompCom, he pulled up the Presidential Order forming the Timeline Preservation Commission. He scrolled down to the paragraph that have him absolute authority to inspect any travellator at any time, for any reason, including the prototype. “Now, do I have to get your boss down here, or are you going to let us into the control room?”
