Chapter 7 - The Trap Laid

Sebastian raised a hand, stopping his house guards from touching Clare. He forced his face into a mask of weak, exhausted surrender.
"Calm down, Viktor," Sebastian said, making his voice sound frail and slurred. "The doctors say I’m getting worse anyway. My legs are completely dead."

Viktor pulled out a fresh roll of white medical bandage and a small bottle of clear liquid from his coat pocket, stepping toward the wheelchair.

"What is in that bottle, Viktor?" Clare asked suddenly, her voice echoing in the quiet penthouse. "That doesn't look like standard saline solution."
