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

Dean noticed Thalia's grip tightening over the strap of the messenger bag on her shoulder. The bag contains the water sample and the note on the research done by Dr. Matthews, but he could tell she wasn't anxious to part with it just yet. 


He didn't blame her. Even though he believed that Bhram didn't know anything about the Taurus project, he still couldn't fully trust the man, especially that he said, "You need to come in officially." 


"I promise you, I will protect you. We'll take your story to the secretary of defense himself. Verano--" 


"--might be behind this entire mess," Dean finished. "For all we know, Secretary Verano green-lit Project Taurus." 


"Then we contact the Bureau, place you and Dr. Ricafort in protective custody." Immediately after the words left his mouth, Bhram chuckled ruefully. "Don't bother answering - we both know you'll reject the offer."
