Harvey staggered back several steps, his chest heaving as he gasped for air. Beads of sweat rolled down his brow, pooling in the hollows of his eyes. The moisture blurred his vision, yet the window remained intact, without even a hairline crack.
Suddenly, Niamh wrapped her arms around him from behind. Her hands roamed freely over his body.
“Harvey… I can’t take it anymore…” she said as she reached for his suit jacket, trying to peel it off.
Harvey twisted violently, attempting to shake her off. “Let go!”
He growled through clenched teeth, but with his hands restrained behind his back, Niamh easily stripped off his outer jacket.
The suit jacket caught around his wrists as Niamh slithered like a snake to his front, looping her arms around his neck. She wore barely any clothes now as she stood on tiptoe to reach his jawline.
As she pressed closer, Harvey’s stomach churned with overwhelming nausea. He stumbled backward in panic, but Niamh clung to him like a leech as her entire body glued to his.
“Niamh Jones! Snap out of it!” Harvey shouted, but Niamh only gazed up at him with dazed, unfocused eyes.
“Harvey… I don’t know what’s wrong with me… I feel so strange…. I can’t control myself…” Her words slurred as she tried to kiss him.
Harvey’s eyes widened in horror, every fiber of his being recoiling from her touch. Then his calves hit the sofa, throwing him off balance.
As he toppled backward, Niamh landed atop him, whimpering, “Harvey, Lfeel awful!”
“You’re in agony too, aren’t you? Harvey, help me. If we don’t do something, we’ll both go insane!”
“Don’t touch me!” Harvey twisted his body away, his voice ragged “Niamh! Just endure it! Get the hell off me right now!”
Niamh braced her hands against his shoulders as she said, “Harvey, if we don’t counteract this drug, it’ll only get worse!
“When the effects peak, we’ll lose control like rabid animals! We might even hurt each other…”
Her eyes locked onto his, burning with a frenzied desperation. “Let’s do this while we’re still sane enough to think!”
“Stop this madness!” Harvey shouted. “I’m warning you–get off me, or we’re done as friends!
Niamh let out a frustrated cry. “I’m not asking you to take responsibility! l’urnot some purity–obsessed prude! “We’re just curing the poison! Once it’s out of our systems, everything goes back to normal!”
“No!” His refusal was absolute.
Her voice turned pleading, laced with Irritation. “Harvey, n even letting you take the lead here! Why are you so stubborn? We’re saving each other’s lives!”
Harvey’s scalp prickled with tension. His fists clenched as strained against the handcuffs, desperate to break free.
“I won’t do those things with you!”

Niamh nearly screamed in frustration. “If we don’t act, our bodies will break down! What’s the damn holdup? “You’re divorced from Elara–what’s left to lose? We’re best friends, so just go for it!”
