I mean, what if it involved conditioning, Mariah? Ultrashock therapy. Mental tooling—
I recalled how Gabriel had tried to slay me after hearing about Abby’s death. How, beneath his words and actions, he hated me even now because I was a killer who couldn’t help herself.
I suppose, in life, there’s always a moment where you run into the wall of yourself. That was what I was feeling now, the crash of knowing there’s nowhere else you can go because you can’t turn back.
“As I mentioned,” I said, “I’d do whatever it takes.”
Up ahead, Gabriel glanced partway over his shoulder until he met my gaze.
His eyes . . . red glows in the night.
I held my breath, then used my energies to think to him, willing his vampire mind to pick up my inner voice.
Believe me, Gabriel. I want to be better.
His only answer was to turn round and slip into the cavern entrance, leaving me behind with an Intel Dog who gave me a sympathetic look, then stranded me, too.
