Broken

[Nox]

Nox couldn't stop pacing. He'd told Christian that he was expecting a girl. Christian had given him a look that said really, you are bringing a girl here now. But he took a look at Cruz and how he was sitting with Rachel even as Nox and he were discussing the manifestations of the power and what had gone down with the sick feeling they felt. There really was no theory to even discuss what had happened. Cruz just kept bouncing ideas off of Nox and Nox could really only shrug. He'd have to wait to connect the dots with Aria.

Nox and Cruz had actually played with the trip wires while they waited too, but Dorian had yelled at them for making bombs in the house. In their defense they had only broken one additional vase before Dorian had yelled at him. Nox had heard Ana chuckling at Dorian. "See what we could have had if we'd had another son." Dorian only glared at Ana and then tipped his head at Christian who turned away quickly when he heard someone at the door. There was something there that Nox was sure would cause some ripples, but neither man said anything.

Nox quickly followed Christian, he waited patiently for the man to do his job. Nox heard her voice and he was nervously standing just out of sight. Christian moved aside and Nox stepped through. "Hey babe."
He held out his hand and smiled at Christian. He pulled her close and under his arm and introduced her to Christian. "Elyse, this is Christian. Christian, my girlfriend, Elyse. "


Dorian was standing in the door to the study watching them. "You don't mind her staying do you? She's one of us, but she's in a dangerous position as well."
Nox didn't want to elaborate on the subject it was her secret to tell not his.
