Hayden chuckled. There might almost be hurt in his brother's voice. "Of course, of missing out. A brother who isn't my father -- that's pretty golden, don't you think?" Hayden rolled his eyes. He'd known since he was eight, but that didn't make it any easier to deal with. Ethan was never his father -- never would be, no matter how many times he tried to be. It just wasn't going to happen.
But he smiled brighter and pushed the childhood drama and trauma aside and started a simple tale. "So this guy, he's extra-ordinary, and I don't mean extraordinary in bed or anything -- he is that, but not what I'm talking about. Extra ordinary. He seems normal, but he's not. My employers don't trust him, yet he does what he's supposed to do, and he's good at the job. But they have me watching him in case he screws up. Far as I can tell, there is nothing wrong with him. Except that he's different -- The Ascendancy kinda different." Hayden laughed. "Not exactly sure what I can do against a man like that, but it is what it is." Hayden was also good at his job, he knew that, but if it came down to a fight -- there was no way Hayden was winning. Thankfully Hayden didn't play by the same rules as others. "Suppose I'll just have to figure out his weakness -- other than cute guys."
