Kindle X-ray Novels & Stories

' In the end, Grant showed her a device that was said to have the function of an X-ray machine. "What is this?" Ava poked at the device curiously. It was as big as a tablet computer. "It's an X-ray machine?" "A---what?! No way!" Her eyes widened in shock. 'That's impossible..." She gasped. "Well, you're looking at one, do you think it's still impossible?" "I see that you have a weird looking device and you said that it's an X-ray machine, but other than than, I still don't see it working as such."

Cole saw him pause, but just for a moment, before putting the book back. When everyone walked out of the room. Xavier stayed behind and when Cole made to walk to the door, he stopped him with a slight pat on the forearm. Cole shut the door and turned to him. Without saying a word, Xavier took long strides back to the shelf, pulled out the book, and gestured for Cole to look inside. Cole peered in and saw a Phylink PLC-128PW; a small-sized flexible smart device with a spy camera. He reached inside and deftly brought it out.

I shove the phone under the rug. The door flies open. Kyros stands there. He is wearing a long cashmere coat over his suit. He leans on his cane, surveying the room. Nikos stands behind him, looking eager. Kyros doesn't look at me. He doesn't look at Zara. He looks at the device in his hand. It’s a black box with blinking red lights and antennas. A signal scanner. It’s beeping. fast. Beep-beep-beep-beep. Kyros smiles. It’s a smile that promises pain.

And allowed myself—just this once—to let the armor rest. When the jet began its descent, I was standing at the window again. Composed. Aligned. Xavier adjusted his cuffs behind me. No words were necessary. We were steadier now. Not softer. Sharper. My phone vibrated. Unknown number. Again. One image. No text. I opened it. My breath stopped. It was an X-ray. Chest cavity. Implant visible. But beneath the standard stabilization unit— There was something else. A second, smaller structure attached to the casing.

“How did you know about that? You weren’t even at the palace were you?” “Ever heard about I*******m?” Draymond frowned, waving his phone in front of Xavier. “I*******m?” Xavier shook his head. “Is that like a place in Jaime’s Woods?” “No,” Draymond sighed. “I totally forgot you are over a hundred years old. I*******m is an app, you can see anything there, pictures, videos and all.” “So I’m on I*******m?” Xavier asked. “Your video is,” Draymond said, slipping his phone out of his pocket. “Come see how dumb you look.”

It wasn't like any of the ones I had experienced with Nolan but it was close. My eyes went to the pale white skin of Sara's shoulders. The drops of water on her skin made her look even more alluring. I reached her hand out to trace the goosebumps on her arm. I heard Sara take in a sharp breath. When I looked at Sara's face, her green eyes had a strange golden ring around them. Her lips were pink and rosy with droplets of water.

“Get him out of here. The stink is appalling.” “What’s wrong with him?” Rhett wondered. “Radiation sickness. We have been refining the use of x-ray on targeted areas, whilst shielding others. This subject’s use is at an end. You can take him to the morgue,” she replied dismissively. “He’s still alive,” Rhett pointed out.

"Here, take this." The phone disappeared from his hand. Xander and I looked at each other, eyes wide. "Okay," he said and then gulped. "Now, hold your hand in front of the scanner. What colors show on the screen?" "It says, ‘no data,'" Scarlet said. "Now, hit the ‘History' button at the top right of the screen." "Okay." "Now, select ‘Saved Scans.' Yours is the first one that I just took while standing here talking to you."

Then she opened a lower compartment—and froze. A large device lay nestled inside. Matte black. Angular. About the size of a travelling box, fitted with vents and digital panels. Etched into its surface were the words: Kyrexin-X. Lylah didn’t know what it meant. But something about it—its weighty design, the way it seemed to hum with dormant power—made her blood run cold, and instantly she knew that this... this was worse than silver bullets.

“Oh, I am asking. This is going in the Yearbook. ‘Miriam: Queen of Black-Market Medical Equipment.’” “Touch me with that camera again and I’ll inject you next,” Miriam warned, already pulling on gloves. She wheeled the X-ray over and positioned it above Xavier’s arm, which was turning a worrying shade of corpse-blue. “Found it,” she muttered, staring at the screen. “Coating’s concentrated near his brachial artery. It’s still intact… for now.” Xavier squinted at her. “You’re not going to amputate anything, right?”
