Nox fixed food and ignored Hayden bouncing Lily on his leg and chatting with her like she was fully listening to him. It was cute and it was the reason he was avoiding looking that direction instead he focused on the girl he didn't know her name. "Loss is hard. Losing my mom was one of the hardest things I've ever gone through. Then a year later I lost my father, and two years after that my twin sister. I had nothing until I found Kallisti. I even lost my best friend before I found my true family. You can't ever bring them back, or replace them, but you can find new ones."
Nox tossed the egg fritata and roasting vegetables into the oven and leaned back against the back counter. "What brought you to my home?" He glanced over at Hayden. "I assume you are the woman Ashton and Hayden mades friends with. I'm Nox." He introduced himself.
