Cassie stood frozen in the hallway, Erica’s words echoing in her head. “We’ve found your replacement.” She quickly lowered her eyes, hiding the shock on her face.

This never happened in my previous life,she whispered to the System. There was never a replacement. The System flickered into view. [WARNING: TIMELINE ALTERATION DETECTED.]

Cassie’s heart skipped. What?

[AN UNEXPECTED VARIABLE HAS ENTERED THE WELSON FAMILY’S PLANS.]

Her eyes widened. Who?

For a moment, the System remained silent. Then

    Nurse Helen hesitated before answering. "We've had twenty patients with similar symptoms today. Seventeen have tested positive for the zombie infection. Only three have tested negative so far."For a moment, Briar stood completely still. His eyes shifted from the nurse to Fiona, then back to the doctor. "Zombie infection?" he repeated, his voice dangerously low. "You think she has that disease?"Dr. Zaiela glanced at Fiona before meeting his eyes. "We're investigating a possible infection. We cannot confirm anything until her results come back.""Then why are you looking at her as though she's already infected?" Briar demanded. "You haven't even received her results!""Because her symptoms are concerning. We're taking precautions to protect her and everyone in this department.""She's a human being, not a number on your screen! She's my girlfriend, and she's lying unconscious in front of you. Stop standing around discussing statistics and find out what's wrong with her!""Sir, I need

    She should have told him to stop. She knew she should have. But her fingers curled into the fabric of his shirt instead, and she pulled him back in. This kiss was different. Less careful. His hand slid from her jaw into her hair, and he tilted her head back, kissing her deeper, like he’d given up pretending he didn’t want this. A small sound escaped her throat, and she felt him smile against her mouth.He broke away just long enough to murmur, “Come here,” and then his hands found her waist, lifting her easily across the console. She ended up half in his lap, knees on either side of him, the steering wheel pressing awkwardly into her back. She laughed, breathless. “This is not a very practical car for this.”“Noted.” His voice was rough, but his eyes were warm. “I’ll buy a bigger one.”She laughed again, and he kissed the laugh right off her lips. His hands slid up her back, warm through the thin fabric of her shirt, and she forgot to care about the steering wheel. She cupped his face

    Hank raised an eyebrow, looking thoroughly amused by her response. “I’m only considering my options.”“Fine. I’ll make sure your first lesson is difficult enough to convince you that escaping isn’t an option.”Cassie laughed, shaking her head at his confidence. After a moment, she leaned back in her chair and studied him with curiosity. “What about your childhood? What were you like growing up?”Hank gave her an amused look. “You’re asking about my childhood now?”“Why not?” She shrugged, resting her elbows lightly on the table. “I’ve heard enough about your business and your training. I want to know more about the man behind all that seriousness.”“And what exactly would you like to know?”“Everything. Were you always this serious? Did you get into trouble as a child?”Hank chuckled, leaning back in his chair. “I wasn’t always serious. In fact, I was quite troublesome.”Cassie’s eyes widened. “You? I find that very difficult to believe.”“Believe it. I climbed trees, got into fights

    “FIONA?”Briar stepped back, staring at the mess on the floor. Fiona was bent forward, one hand pressed against her stomach while the other gripped the edge of the table. “Good Lord! What’s wrong with you?”Fiona tried to answer, but another wave of nausea forced her to cover her mouth. She squeezed her eyes shut, struggling to breathe through it. “Don’t just stand there,” she muttered. “Get me some water.”Briar picked up a bottle and handed it to her. She rinsed her mouth before taking a small sip. Her face had lost its colour, and sweat covered her forehead.“Maybe you should stop shouting and sit down,” he said.“I’m not shouting,” Fiona replied irritably.“Fine. Whatever you say.”She tried to straighten, but the room tilted around her. She grabbed the table again. “Briar…”He looked at her. “What now?”“I don’t feel well.”He folded his arms. “You were threatening to walk out a moment ago. Now you’re telling me you’re sick?”“Can you stop talking for one minute?”“You’re the one

    Cassie still couldn’t understand why Hank had gone to so much trouble. He could have simply taken her out for dinner without sending an entire outfit. “Turn around,” Maya ordered.Cassie glanced at her through the mirror. “Why? You’ve been staring at me for the past ten minutes.”“Because I’m trying to understand something.” Maya stepped back and looked her over again“How does a woman go from being betrayed by her useless ex-husband to having a handsome billionaire send her a dress, shoes, and a handbag for dinner? Please, I need to know your secret.”Cassie groaned. “Maya, don’t start.”“Oh, I’m not even close to starting.” Maya placed a hand on her hip. “My goodness, look at you! If that man doesn’t propose marriage tonight, I’ll consider him a disappointment.” Then she picked up the handbag and handed it to her. “Now, remember to smile, eat properly, and don’t spend the entire evening arguing with him.”“I don’t argue with him.” Maya slowly turned her head and gave her a look. Cass

    Briar remained still, his fingers still wrapped around her arm. Fiona’s expression hardened. “Briar, I won’t repeat myself. Let go.”He finally released her and stepped back. For a moment, neither of them spoke. Fiona rubbed her arm, glaring at him. “You seriously need to get a grip. Just because you can’t control your own life doesn’t mean you get to put your hands on me.”“Are you done?” Briar snapped.“Not even close, but I have better things to do than stand here watching you throw a tantrum.” She folded her arms. “You want to find out what happened to your shipment? Then investigate it. Check the suppliers, question the drivers, and find out who handled the delivery. But stop dragging Cassie’s name into everything without a single piece of evidence.”Briar turned away and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows. Outside, the sky had taken on an unsettling red colour, casting an eerie glow over the buildings. “She was there,” he muttered. “She was the last person to see that s
