Rune had seen his picture and videos and stories and all kinds of ways someone could see another person's face, but she didn't really get it until he got into the car and looked over at her. To be technical, he looked at her legs and then up to her. It kind of gave her a thrill. Nobody ever looked at Rune like that.
He was so handsome. Damn the luck that he was also a blood-thirsty godling that'd smite her to ash as soon as look at her. Well, he hadn't smote her yet, so maybe not as soon as he looked at her, but either way, Rune was still suddenly nervous.
What was worse was the fact that he didn't smell violent at all. He didn't smell like anything! Except maybe a hint of aftershave and vodka...
"You're definitely a better driver than I was. Maybe I should give my career choice a second thought."
She winked at the side of his face.
"I bet this baby can really get to speed fast. Too bad we're stuck in town.
And my name's Rune. You know, like the letters of old Norse alphabet?"
She flipped her bangs out of her eyes and gazed ahead, seemingly bored and unimpressed by the slow-goings.
Uncle Seth growled in her ear piece. He'd made her swear to not tell Jaxen her real name, but Rune didn't see the point in hiding it. She wasn't on any government list anywhere
