Chapter 282

James and I step out of the elevator on the restricted access floor to find Ryker running down the corridor toward us, Aaron nowhere in sight.

Ryker is holding something, and I recognize the cylindrical

solid state drive we’d used at Roberts Corp with the full and final software on it. He has it!

The Al tech is in that solid state drive. The SSD is the key.

I don’t even stop to really think.

I have to get that SSD.

I launch into a sprint straight toward Ryker, partially shifting as I lunge.

Ryker barely breaks stride as we crash into each other, and while we both have Alpha power, he outweighs me by a hundred pounds, and it feels like getting hit by a train.

Still, I try to grab for the drive.

Behind me, I hear the sound of James growling as he aims to
