Hermes (Frozen Origin #2) Read Online Free PDF

I’m not sure how to explain this. My people are genetically manipulated super beings that were enslaved by Origin.”
    “I’ve heard of Origin before but never anything bad until I heard Keven talking about them. They kept you against your will?”
    “Yes, but now we are free. We now run the facility where we were kept, but Origin wants us back. Keven wanted to sell me to them. They will do anything to get us all back.”
    She listened closely and now she understood the danger was far beyond just Keven and his merry band of misfits, there was an organized and wealthy company after Hermes that had incalculable resources to use to find him. Life had just gotten even more complicated or at least now she knew how complicated it had been all along. She knew in that moment she would do anything for him as long as she could find a way to protect Fabian. He was innocent and defenseless and she couldn’t risk his safety no matter what she wanted.
    “We have to find a way to get Fabian to safety, then I will go with you.”
    “Where can we take him?”
    “There’s only one place, one person I would trust to see to Fabian’s care. Be n Ryman was a friend of my dad most of his life. They went on safari together until Ben lost a leg and couldn’t go anymore. He’ll take care of him until we can come back for him.”
    “Won’t Keven know to look there?”
    “Keven didn’t hang around at home enough to know anyone who Dad was friendly with.”
    Now they had a plan to follow and it was time to go. She got on the phone to reach the pilot who would be available at a moment’s notice. Larry answered on the first ring as if he expected her call. “I’ll be there in an hour. Where do you want to go?”
    “We need to go Texas, Dallas to be precise.” She hung up and turned to Hermes. “We have an hour to get ready and pack.” She wasn’t expecting him to pull her into his arms and hug her tight. He just held her until he was ready to release her then he kissed her lightly on her forehead before he dropped his arms to his side. She felt oddly disappointed that he had let her go. She went into Fabian’s room to tell him to get ready but he was already packed up. It was sad that at so young an age, he had learned to anticipate what would happen next.
    The pilot arrived, they loaded everything on the plane, and they headed for Dallas. She had n’t seen Ben since just before her dad had died. Dad had visited Ben regularly over the years, never forgetting to visit and encourage him since Ben had sunk into a depression after he had lost his leg. It wasn’t just because of that, Ben’s wife had left him and taken their two children with her as soon as she found out. They were grown up now and visited him often, but he had lost many of their childhood years because his ex-wife moved often and hid the children from him. Ben was what most people would call a character; he was friendly, likable, and could tell a tall tale with the best of them. He had lived an exciting life that most only dreamed of when he was younger so it was sad to see how he had pulled into himself after the accident. It was years later before he started to come back out of his shell and lived life again.
    They landed after only a couple hours since they weren’t that far away. She worried that Ben might not be home because he had remarried, even had another child, and taken back to his adventurous ways to some extent. Maybe she should have called him but it was too late to worry about that now. Larry would wait at the airport for them either way since she and Hermes would go on to Washington. Ben lived about ten miles from the little private airfield where they had landed. A rental SUV was waiting for them full of gas and ready to go. Her dad had traveled a great deal and had contacts all over the world, the owner of this airfield being one of the many friends he had made when he had gone on his safaris and other travels. There was no doubt when you were in
