CHAPTER 29
Tina couldn’t take her eyes off her.
In fact, she wasn’t sure that she would ever be able to.
She had never been this terrified in her whole life…
Not even when the machine guns had raised towards her, ready to shoot.
No… Not even then.
She was terrified because the woman who held her heart lied before her, unconscious, fighting for her life… And there was nothing she could do about it…
Earlier that day
‘It’s Professor Porter!’
The moment she heard James’ words from the window where Kit had joined her, her whole being started to ache in a way that she would have never thought possible.
Bette…
There on the ground…
Unconscious…
Or was she…?
Her body started to shake and she suddenly felt like she couldn’t breathe…Her surroundings slowly became a blur and she felt so dizzy that she barely registered James’ next words.
“She’s alive!”…
She let out a choked sob, and oxygen started to fill her lungs again.
The next minutes seemed to pass in slow motion, as did the beating of her heart.
James lifted Bette into her arms and carried her inside. The second Tina’s eyes rested on the brunette’s face, she knew that she would find no peace until the beloved eyes met hers again.
They took her upstairs in one of the rooms and after settling her on the bed, Kit immediately started to assess her wounds.
Bette’s shoulder was badly injured and her body was covered with bruises, but she didn’t seem to have anything broken.
Kit was aware of what a whole night in the hands of uncontrollable and ruthless soldiers could eventually involve. So after getting some privacy, she gathered her courage and examined Bette for any sign of a sexual assault. When, after several endless minutes, she didn’t find any, she let out a huge sigh of relief and thanked whatever gracious deity had spared her baby girl.
Though, she had suspected that the army probably wouldn’t let that happen. The day before, during her fruitless visit at the Health Ministry, Bette had been able to meet one general, who happened to be one of the main leaders of the new government, and she had identified herself as an American professor from the CDC. Having dealt with this kind of individuals many times before, Kit knew that a new leading group, as authoritarian as it could turn out to be, would always be very cautious not to anger the international community by torturing one of its nationals. Especially an important American scientist, and a woman nonetheless.

Well at least one of them has finally figured out how they feel. Wonderful story, and great chapter as always. Can’t wait for them to see one another in the morning.
This is such a riveting story. With all that is happening throughout the world with daily terrorist attacks, this story reminds me of how precarious the world and life is today. At least in this story there is hope for Bette, Tina, Kit, James and the boys to survive. Tina telling Bette she loved her as Bette calls out her name while unconscious is priceless.
I’m with Seahurst, Can’ seem to get enough of it. PPS thanks
Another amazing chapter! Can’t get enough… pps ;)
You are too cute with teasing yourself with your own cliffhanger!! Please feel free to continue the daily postings as I wouldn’t want you to feel any additional or undue pressure. Can’t wait to know if Bette heard Tina’s confession.
