A FEW HOURS LATER, the lights flicker above me, and I blink. For a second the lab is bathed in darkness, the only light coming from the computers. I stand, but they come back on, as if everything’s normal. My computers are all running, but they’re on backup generators so if there’s a power outage, I don’t lose any data. Still, it’s odd. “Security,” a low voice calls and I rear up from the desk. A young man with spiky blond hair holds up his hands. He’s wearing black jeans and a black t-shirt molded to his muscled chest. He’s not a big guy, like some of the security guards, but he is pure lean muscle. Something about him makes my near-extinct libido rev its engine.“Hey, sorry. Didn’t mean to scare you.”“It’s all right. Um, do you need me to go?” I gather up some papers. “No, I won’t be here long. Are you on the night shift?”
