Winter Calm

PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS WINTER CALM BY QUINN BLACKBIRD. THIS IS A NEW EDITION: "I'll never let you go, Winter." It was less of a promise and more of a threat. "But it seems I might have to share you." One whole year since we took shelter in this underground paradise and let the rotters take the world above.

We're safe down here. Safe. For the first time in my life. But it's me -- Winter -- so you know, my life is never calm. It's Christmas here, there's a lot to be grateful for, but my story isn't yet finished. Not with Castle, not with Leo.

There's more to tell. My name is Winter Miles,

and here is the rest of my story... ____________________________________________________________________________________________ WINTER CALM is a special Christmas novella and an optional extended epilogue.

Years after we left the group at the CDC, let's see where they're at now!
