“A kiss,” he whispered.

  Ruth smiled and said softly, “Of course.”

  She leaned over the edge of the cage, her lips pursed and a delighted smile in her eyes.

  Clay tilted his head up to receive the kiss, her lips soft and glorious against his own.

  He withdrew the syringe from the blanket, closed his eyes and struck. She gasped as the needle speared into her neck and he drove the plunger deeper as he opened his eyes. The morphine exploded out of the hypodermic, and she staggered back, sliding off the steel.

  Clay watched her drop to the floor, smiled at her and said, “My death is my own, Nurse. No one else can decide my fate.”

  With a wild swing, Clay managed to stab one of the orderlies in the eye with the needle before it was wrenched from him. Clay’s laughter joined the sudden screams of the living and the dead as the surviving orderly beat him to death in the cold, harsh confines of Sanford Hospital.
