Chapter 250 What He's Done

• Jace POV
• “In the right doses, yeah, it stops nausea, helps with vertigo, even used to be given to pregnant women way back. But in higher doses, it doesn’t just make people sick, it erases their ability to form memories.” He taps his temple. “It was used in war, Jace. The fucking Nazis experimented with it in interrogations, trying to make people confess without them realizing they were talking. The CIA had it in their MKUltra program, testing if it could turn people into mindless puppets. Even today, in places like Colombia? Criminals use it. They call it ‘Devil’s Breath’—slip it into someone’s drink or blow it in their face, and boom, they’ll do whatever the fuck they’re told.”
• My stomach twists. “That’s bullshit.”
