New Players In The Pattern

[Sage]

Elias really didn't like Nox. But then that' was the way of it. Nox either pulled you in from the get go, or you hated him. Though Sage had never actually met anyone who'd hated Nox from the start. Elyse had a right to hate him, and so did Emily and from all things that Sage gathered Nox was an asshole to both of them. So finding someone who didn't like the good looking foul mouthed kid made Sage smile.

Aiden was pulling him after him and Sage followed a step or two behind. He hoped he was right about that hell hound. He didn't know much about them. Only what Nox decided to share with him as he replayed the footage over and over again trying to find something he missed back then, something he could have used to save his mother. And now his rock was gone, his sister, the one thing that kept him going in one direction was gone. His nightmares were stronger again, and he was an insomniac. Sage sighed. He had a perfectly handsome man holding his hand and he was thinking about someone else.

Once they were in sight of the limo Sage spoke quietly. "I'm sorry, I've been a bad date." Sage wrapped his arm around Aiden's waist as they walked. "And I hate that Nox is apart of this all. I can't imagine what you think of me, with all the talk about him. I really am here to see you. To help you, and to help you, you need Nox." Sage smirked. "And as you can see Nox isn't liked by everyone." Sage stopped and made Aiden stop too. "And to prove I want to be here with you." He leaned in and kissed Aiden.
