Which was why it was such a surprise when he got ambushed, Makarov managing to turn the tide and force the gun against the intruders head, pulling off the mask that hid their face and coming eye to eye with you. The one person he’d trusted and thought loyal. The one person who backstabbed and betrayed him.
