Eighteen:

With most of our leads dead and in such little pieces that we actually had dust collectors out, I was forced to wait for Ren and Grendel to let me in on whatever they learned from the one captured.

Despite my best efforts, I was forced to abandon my goal of making a proper meal of Grendel this morning. After breakfast, my very grouchy Ren alpha male was darkening my doorstep waiting for the Grand Magus. He seemed to eye me with some new level of frustration and edge. I suppose seeing me fugue out like I had the night before must have been more than his alpha senses could handle right now.

“Look, I am not saying you have to let me into the super-secret Hidden hideout, just let me in the damn door long enough to get permission!”

My tone was increasingly more irritable as time wore on throughout the day. I had spent most of the day waiting for some words, so I decided a more proactive approach was in order. Being the industrious little beaver I am, I just happened to have shadowed Ren back to his Hidden New York Division law enforcement operation. This small factory-like building in Red Hook was a small jail detention and general immortal police station hub.

Contractors may not have intended for the uses the facility now had, but the Nix and the Tren were savvy builders. They fortified the foundations and reinforced the walling with titanium to hold in just about anything short of an apex dragon shift. I am not very sure what precisely one can do with an angry dragon, but I understand the answer is not to incarcerate them.

The door opened and Ren came out with a growl in his eyes he was so grumpy. I was actually worried he might maul me at this moment, but I did not let him in the loop on that little personal fear. Nix are amazing predators, so I do not need to have him thinking of me as prey.

“I am having trouble finishing my interrogation. This obnoxious civilian keeps banging on my damn wards causing the tech to go crazy.”

I frowned and questioned, “Why is your expression setting off your tech?”

Ren gave me a look and said, “Classified, for all you are concerned.”

He growled at me with no shortage of bite in his tone.

“It is because we layer expression and tech into the perimeter defenses and the containment protocols. Our tech redundancies have expressive redundancies built into them as well.”

Grendel explained and I waved my hand at Ren as if to say, “See, wasn’t that hard to answer, was it?!”

Ren rolled his eyes and slipped back inside, he clearly decided that if the Grand Magus was willing to fraternize with me, that let him off the hook.

“What’s his big deal? It’s not like I embarrassed him in front of the troops or anything!”

I grumbled to Grendel who smiled keenly and said, “Luv, that is exactly what ye did last night. Might as well have pulled his trousers down in front of that entire club full of enforcers.
