HIS BEAUTIFUL CAGE
"Zara... the barrier... the bullets didn't even scratch it..."
"The barrier is strictly kinetic," I said, my voice as steady and unyielding as the stone foundation of the bunker. "It reacts instantly to the high velocity of a bullet. It reacts to the sudden force of a punch or an explosion. But it cannot react to the friction of a slow, steady, deliberate cut. It’s a digital shield, Luciano, and all digital shields have a refresh rate."
I stood up slowly, the chipped ceramic blade held firmly in my hand. I didn't look at the simulation of Silas. I didn't look at the flashing mirrors of my past. I kept my eyes locked entirely on the amber liquid of the center cylinder—the "Primary."
