For just a moment, Harrison's gaze flicked downward to the floor. Something that looked almost like remorse passed over his features, if just for a split second. Because he knew exactly what Gabe meant.
His team was never meant to be what they were. They were just techs and doctors, pawns in grand plan. So often he forced himself to feel think of them that way. But something had started to creep under that cold, hard conviction. Especially over the last year. Oh, he'd kill them in an instant if it was necessary for his plan. But right up until that point, he'd come to think of them rather fondly. Children he'd never have.
"And what plan was that?" he asked, calm as ever, as if there'd been no shift in his emotions. Because unlike the others, Gabe was a cuckoo. Inserting himself where he didn't belong. Usurping what was meant for those more deserving. Harrison had no remorse for him.
