Currently, he was walking towards Ashely's room, cup of hot coffee in his hand. Just as he turned the corner leading to the room, he spotted Christian draping a blanket over Leonica's shoulder and handing her a cup of coffee. Leonica accepted it with a tired smile and a little thank you' unaware of how her actions caused Gabriel's jaws to clenched.

Firstly at the banquet and now here. Enough was enough.

Dumbing the coffee into a nearby bin, Gabriel approaches the trio, namely Leonica, Christian and Anastasia who had arrived during the final hours of the operation.

Christian sensed the aura radiating off his friend the moment his eyes landed on him. He was about to question this, but Gabriel best him to speak.

"Christian, we need to talk. Follow me." He demanded and turned around, walking away before his friend could question what about.

Passing Leonica one last look of sympathy, Christian followed after Gabriel.

"Hey, what are we talking about?" Trying to match his friend's pace, he asked.

Much to his dismay, Gabriel ignored his question and continued to lead him to his location of choice. Only when they arrived in the confines of an empty room did Gabriel speak. Questioned to be precise. "What are you feelings towards Leonica?"

The question caught Christian off guard. "What?"

led out with a gesture in the air that indicated that even Christian's own bed partners didn't have that honor. "and you don't hesitate to defend her, so give it to me straight, do you like her?" "What? Why would you think that?"
