Chapter 26 Summary

Adam walks into Juliette’s room and sees her crying on the shower floor. She is having an attack of self-loathing after Warned had forced her to touch the child. He takes her in his arms and assures her that what had happened wasn’t her fault, that Warner put together this performance to make her believe that she is a monster. When Juliette says she cannot believe how Adam can care so much about someone like her, he says he is in love with her. They kiss and begin to have intimate contact, but Adam has to report downstairs.

Juliette puts on a dress and hides her notebook in one of its pockets. She finally summons the courage to look at herself in the mirror. While she studies her reflection, Adam walks in and tells her she’s beautiful. They begin to kiss and take off each other’s clothes, but all of a sudden, an alarm goes off—all soldiers are notified about a breach. Adam is hesitant about what to do because he has to report downstairs, but he doesn’t want to leave Juliette alone. Before he decides, Warner walks in and orders him to leave. After Adam is gone, Warner notices that the sheets are rumpled and Juliette’s dress is ripped.
