Unless they can stop the deadly virus from spreading. Sergeant Deanver Magallon and doctor Thalia Ricafort are hand in hand just to find out the root of the said virus, and how they can prevent its spread. 

But their undeniable attraction to each other is a huge threat to their mission. And because they are both afraid to enter into a commitment, it becomes a casual affair between them. 

Being chased by their own government and also being chased by terrorists, so Dean and Thalia don't really know who they can really trust. With time running out, they must stop the deadly threat as soon as possible, and they just realized that there are things you're willing to gamble on no matter how risky it is.

Love In The Time Of Outbreak

Thalia just stared at the greenish color of the water for a few seconds, then she took a deep breath, closed her eyes and jumped. 


The water was warmer than she'd anticipated. It completely engulfed her, soaking her clothes, her hair, her tired body. She kicked her feet, propelling herself to the surface, and squeaked in surprise when she noticed Dean's wet head right beside her. 


She spat water from her mouth. "I'm fine." 


They swam together side by side, Thalia feeling like a wet rat. She removed the braid from her hair and let it loose. 


"Ugh. Nothing worse than wet pants," she said. 


"Don't worry, you won't be wearing that for long. You can borrow Ina's clothes when we get to the beach house." 


"And how do we get to the beach house you're talking about?" Her suspicious gaze drifted to the trees. "Don't tell me we're going to walk again. In these wet clothes."
