Alec shrugged, “So yeah. I worked for him for three or four years. We did jobs, I learned the family trade. Called myself Hijack at first.
That’s a pretty fitting name.
It also makes me think or Paranatural, where Hijack is some kind of being with the power of possession.
He started to get on my case. I think maybe he was having trouble affecting me the same way he did before my powers kicked in, so he compensated for that by riding me.
Confirmed that Heartbreaker used his power on his kids, including Alec. 
Also, “riding”? I hope you mean in the sense of making Alec work hard. I really do.
Pushed my limits, made me do stuff that was dangerous, stuff that was hard on my conscience. Wanted me to break, beg him to stop, so he’d have leverage to get me to do what he wanted.”
“And?”
Ugh.
…I have a feeling Alec only got more and more bitter and resolved not to break. Question is whether he managed to keep that resolve.
“And he ordered me to kill this foot soldier for a group trying to push us out of their territory. After I was done, he told me I did it wrong, that I had to do it again with a captive we’d taken, and I knew no matter what I did, he’d make me keep doing it.
So that’s at the very least two lives he had Alec take for the sake of abusing him. There’s a chance he was going to murder these two anyway, but still. Rude.
…ohhh. I think we just found out what Armsmaster was talking about in Agitation.
