Chapter 8 - Marcus Vanished for Six Minutes—and Those Six Minutes Nearly Destroyed DominicWhen the lights returned, Marcus was gone.
I screamed.
“Marcus!”
Dominic moved faster than I had ever seen.
Doors slammed.
Guards ran.
Cameras were checked.
Six minutes.
Six minutes without my son.
I thought I would die.
Then Marcus appeared from behind a storage cabinet.
He was holding a small key.
“I found it.”
I grabbed him.
I cried against his hair.
Dominic crouched beside us.
“Where were you?”
Marcus pointed.
“Secret door.”
Behind the cabinet was an elevator.
It led to a second laboratory.
There we found the original records.
Including a photograph of Dominic's father.
And Victor.
And Dr. Vale.
The three men had been working together.
But there was one more name.
Clara Hale.
Dominic froze.
“My mother?”
I looked at him.
His mother had supposedly died when he was twelve.
But the file contained recent photographs.

She was alive.
And she was the person who had ordered the experiments.
