Nox rudely took his phone away from her. Why wasn't Bas saying anything? Had she offended him by answering Nox's phone? Stupid men! But Nox didn't seem to be having any better luck. He stood there doing nothing, almost like he was concentrating on something. Was he using his gift? He seemed to know when she did but she couldn't tell with him. That seemed highly unfair - she could see a soft glow around Zoya, but there was nothing around Nox. This whole gift thing was just a confusing as the boy himself.
Aria rejoined them and insisted they leave. She didn't even bother to see if everything was alright. She just took Nox by the arm and he moved with her. Was he a love sick puppy? He couldn't follow her blindly like that? Was he that messed up? Connor took Ayden's hand with one simple phrase and Ayden sighed. Connor thought he was bad off, which probably meant he was and her hatred of the Atharim and in particular the little girl leading the pack were getting in the way.
But she had no reason to help them anymore, the girl was dead. It felt like a rock thrown into a puddle except it wasn't just a rock it was a boulder that covered the whole puddle. What would she do if she lost Connor? Would she be in any better shape? But the boy didn't seem too close with his sister? There were too many questions and Ayden knew she wasn't likely to get an answers - and what answers she would get weren't going to be given out in the middle of the streets of Moscow. So Ayden followed the pair of Atharim hunters down into the metro station.
Aria said something to Nox and it brought all her questions to the forefront again. She couldn't stay quiet anymore. Ayden wanted to grab the raven haired girl by her shoulders and demand an explanation. The image running through her mind made her smile but Ayden tightened her grip on Connor's hand and spoke softly. "Let it go? How do you know he is holding his gift? I can't tell and I have it too. And what the hell went on in there?"
