Cruz laughed at Siobhan's assessment of Nox. The man was far from feminine even if he was favoring men these days. Though even that was still touch and go he was avoiding Sage and Aiden when all possible. Cruz really couldn't stop laughing sliently while Officer Lih and the wolf woman exchanged words. Lih spoke of Nox and Cruz blurted out "Nox will hate you for thinking he's a woman. I didn't say he was a good guy. He's Atharim. He's good at his job, but he's like us. So in that he's a bad Atharim. Nox's version of morality borders on the gray line."
His father sighed. "Nox, is a good man. He won't kill a human on sight no matter their failings, but don't get me wrong if you threw your power at him in any attempt on his own life or others, he would not hesitate to put you down." Cruz knew that. Nox was better than his father. At least Nox never lied about who he was. Cruz wondered why it was easy to accept that Nox killed things - people. And his father who only covered it up was worse. It was his father and it was all lies. That had to be it Cruz thought to himself.
His father continued on speaking directly to Officer Lih, "I truly hope you do not step away. Domovoi needs the likes of you. Brave, willing to make the hard choices, but conscious of what it means. I'm working a case, that Nox has been working as Atharim. Mostly just killing the monsters, but I have more legal actions. The three of us need to sit down and collaborate. Work this, it will be good to get your feet wet with some good detective work before we have to take action."
Dorian spoke of the monsters that scared Nox. The one he had saved his father from. Nox only knew parts of the situation, he wasn't going to like what he'd found his father in the middle of. A channeling monster - holy fuck!
Cruz interrupted their conversation to answer the last of Siobhan's questions. "No hell hounds, just an elite hacker, and two channelers with a giant hole in the wall to the underground tunnels."
Christian laughed, "And two vicious dogs and an range of practice equipment you'd never think to find in a house much less their purpose for." Cruz smiled, that was one the best things downstairs, He wasn't as good as Nox, but enjoyed trying to block the flying balls with his power. "That's where Nox, Sage and Aiden tend to stay despite the rest of the house being open to them."
