THE PROFESSOR'S DIRTY CLAIM
The residual rift shimmered in the center of the room like a wound that refused to close.
Damian stepped forward alone. The team waited outside as ordered.
The device activated. The rift widened with a scream of tearing reality.

Endless versions of the hotel suite stretched into infinity. In one, Alex knelt in lingerie, whispering “Master.” In another, Damian bent him over the conference table. In a thousand others, they fucked in every position, every level of desperation and love. The children’s hum echoed everywhere Hope, Grace, and Kai calling to him.
