childhood.

Excerpt:
He faded in and out of consciousness. Sound,
light, and movement all blended together. Coherent thought was impossible;
fragments of ideas filtered in, then slipped through the sieve of his mind. He
was weak, dehydrated, and starving.
The one consistent concept he was able to
grasp was his name. Brennan Miles. He had given the name to himself. It was
simple, strong, and normal; qualities that he longed for. He no longer
remembered his real name, just as he no longer remembered anything before he’d
arrived at the institute.
The few he’d met took one look at his large
frame and stocky build, and thought he looked plenty strong. He could see it in
the way they looked at him with a mix of awe and fear. But he wasn’t strong in
the way that he wanted to be. Now he wasn’t even physically strong. They’d kept
his food and supplements from him for over seventy-six hours—the longest period
to date. Water was the only offering and even that had been the bare minimum.
They wanted to see how long he could go and how powerful his need would be when
triggered.
He had seen how intense his need could be and
what it could drive him to do. All those other times, though, he had been in
prime condition—healthy and agile. In his current state, he doubted he would be
able to lift his head, much less give in to the power of his unnatural
instinct. The doctor would be disappointed.
Serves him right, he thought.
Brennan heard the swish of the door open and
close. His acute sense of smell recognized the scent of Doctor Shinto and that
of a stranger. Repulsion and hate flowed through his veins. The voices of his
visitors drifted in and out. They spoke about him as if he wasn’t even there.
He was just an object, an experiment. He wanted to lash out and crush the
doctor. He wanted to give in to his need here and now, but with his ankles
shackled and his wrists bound he could do no such thing.
