I couldn’t take my eyes off Alex who sat at one of the tables across the dining hall. My face was red with

stomach.

“I’m here to do my job,” he answered simply. “Per the orders of my superior.”

“My father asked you to come here?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. “You, out of all his

gammas?”

He raised his brows at my statement.

“Yes; I’m one of his best,” he said, narrowing his eyes at me. “Do you have an issue with how I do my
