Elyse took down more of the creatures, but they kept coming. When she shot down one another took its place. The room was getting hot, and she wondered if the creatures generated more heat. Suddenly, Nox grabbed her and pulled her close. He covered her with his own body. Elyse could feel his heart beating against his chest as some sort of explosion happened, and Elyse understood what had happened.
Nox was a reborn god - at least he had their power. She understood the sacrifice he had made in that moment. He had done what she had been willing to do for him. Nox had no idea if she kill him or turn him in to more conservative types. The screams hit her ears and she covered them, hearing them much more acutely than she would like.
Fire leaped from Nox’s hands and killed more of the creatures. Nox instructed her to cover her ears and eyes and she did as he said. She could see a flash through her closed eyelids and heard a rumble through covered ears. She waited a second before uncovering her ears and opening her eyes. She heard Nox command her to run, and he didn’t have to say it twice. They had an opening. Elyse ran, keeping up with Nox.
”I’m clear,”
she yelled as she had cleared the last creature. ”Take them out,”
she said, hoping that encouraging Nox to use his power would help Nox understand that she wouldn’t hurt him or tell anyone his secret.
