She was right. He'd do anything to protect Cruz. He wasn't a child anymore, but he was his son. And he'd do anything to protect Ana and his father as well.
Dorian took a deep breath. "That was the Atharim sent by the IA investigator who was looking into me."
Dorian thought if I'm going all in, I might as well make it known who is who that he knew of anyway.
Yun nodded and Slav questioned again. "What happens if we don't get him off your back?"
"I expect he'll try to kill me, even if you do get him off my back. The Atharim are relentless. They send person after person against Ascendancy and he's a god. A trail of dead bodies follows him. I know of very few Atharim that live if they catch a reborn god who knows what they are doing."
Dorian looked to Yun his wine glass poised to drink, "I'm not of any use to you if my family is dead. I need a round the clock guard on my house. And a tail on my son and wife. I will help you, And with my help I'll bring you my boy god. He's far more Atharim then I am. He hunted the monsters, he worked inside the system. But he doesn't work for you. He doesn't kill humans, he's an innocent boy with enough problems on his plate. But he will have no problem telling you about the Atharim or about the reborn gods. Or teaching whatever godlings you find to work for you. He's a crude teacher but his skills are good at making things go boom."
A small smile spread to his lips then he drank from the glass and continued on with his meal. She might think she had the upper hand, but Dorian had been doing the whole corrupted cop thing since he joined the force. This was nothing new.
