TREX Special Director Dan Weber sat off in the corner, staring at his reflection in one of the giant silver balls decorating the tree. Maybe it was a mistake bringing several of his senior agents together like this. He had hoped bringing them together would, well, bring them together. The team dynamics had taken a dive the past couple years. The tension had never been higher.

And it was his fault.

He needed to be a better director but didn’t know how. Hell, he’d never been much of a leader. He preferred to work alone. That way he wouldn’t have to argue with SACs, deal with pain-in-the-ass agents, or bury his best friend.

It was his fault the team had fallen apart. They couldn’t even spend a single evening together without it turning into WWIII. He’d done nothing but bark at everyone, glare at them when he couldn’t think of anything to say, or simply ignore them. No wonder they were at each other’s throats. That’s exactly how Dan directed.

He slid his lids closed and leaned his head against the wall as he sat on the floor. This had sounded like such a great idea when he’d pitched it to Malcolm McKoy. With threats multiplying like rabbits, TREX needed to be more proactive in the agency’s approach. Homeland Security had already beefed up several of its units. So had the FBI, CIA, and numerous other alphabet agencies. TREX used to be the forerunner in everything and had fallen behind. They were privately funded, so he couldn’t use budget concerns as an excuse.

It was him.

Which brought him full circle to why he’d wanted them all together. Dan and Malcolm both agreed to expand the agency. Vic Greene, the guy signing their paychecks, had approved the new org chart. The board had signed off on bringing in more agents.

Now he had to inform his senior agents they’d be losing agents to other teams, gaining new agents to train, and even sending existing agents back to Gahanna, TREX’s training camp, to learn new skills.

His SACs knew. Since David knew, that meant Charis knew. If Charis knew, the rest of the McKoys knew, too. Judging by the way Wayde kept stealing glances Spencer’s way like he wanted to say something but didn’t know how, he knew, too. It was time to tell the rest of the group which, ironically, left his wife as the last person to break the news to.

As Dan opened his eyes, he was surprised to find the kid sitting next to him. How’d he sneak up on him? Was he losing his touch? He’d always been able to bank on his ability to sense danger, read people, and pull miracles out of his ass. Why was the kid just sitting there? It bugged the shit out of him not being able to read this one.

“Can I help you with something?” he finally asked when the silence grew deafening.

“No.” He stared at the presents under the tree.

Ah, hell. This kid would wake up on
