The gentle whirring of tires on pavement announced the return of the Chevrolet SUVs as they rolled through the gates of the USOV premises. The agents sent on the special mission had completed their assignment and returned. The vehicles came to a stop in the front lot, engines humming to silence as doors opened and operatives emerged one by one.
Team A stepped out of the first SUV while Liam exited from another.

He had also decided to abandon his inquiries about Liam's true nature, knowing that whatever the young man was would eventually reveal itself in time.
As they walked into the main building, Liam noticed the relative quiet. It appeared most of the other agents were out on missions today, but he paid little attention to this detail. He and Team A made their way toward Director Grey's office, ascending the stairs in steadily.
