Kadaj gave Tris's unconscious form one last mockingly apologetic look before taking Ansem's hand. There was an obvious expression of eager anticipation on his face that he didn't even bother to hide. No point in trying, was there? After all, the sooner they got back, the sooner he'd be able to see his traitorous older brother get the treatment he deserved, the treatment all humans deserved, for the way they treated Mother.

And as for Tris? What empathy he felt for her was unimportant and would probably fade soon anyway. There may be some lingering guilt over tricking her like that, sure, but she was no different from the others, now was she? They would all meet the same end anyway. It was just a matter of time.
