They Found Me

[Sage]

There were lots of things going on in Sage's head. Lots of processes he was following just for the day. And he was slightly distracted by the fact that Nox had a baby strapped to his chest. It seemed perfectly normal to Nox. He acted like it was, but that child was an aberration. Though Nox dotted on it like it was his own. Sage had done all the paperwork and officially the kid was his, so were all the refugees from the Blackthorn mansion. All the paperwork would be completed by the time they landed the other side of the ocean.

They had another man joining them and Sage was waiting to ID the man, he hadn't even been given a name, only to book his flight under an alias. Sage could have let the CCD fly them in, but it looked better being totally under Nox's dime. Though Nox didn't know he'd paid for it, he barely understood the money he had in his bank account -- or rather the one Sage had set up for him. Nox could fund himself a little army if he wanted to. That was the benefits of letting Sage use his name as a holding, he got a percentage, even if he didn't know it. Aurora would want Sage to look after her little brother, and that's what he did.

When the strange number came in Sage was already tracing it and Nox knew that he would. It wouldn't take long to know how they'd gotten the number. And who it was on the other end.
