Cade listened. He was interested but not too interested. Dancing was never his thing. Could be that was what his mother was before she left a dance instructor. He was only five when she disappeared body never to be found. He had been only five and he hated dancing now. Didn't ever do it, Laney had dragged him out for their first dance. And proceeded to drag him out on the dance floor including the one on their wedding day.
But they turned the conversation to him and Cade gave them all a polite smile. "Not really much to say. Cade went to medical school, met his wife, had a son. Lost them both in a short period of time. And then he dedicated himself to helping children in need since he couldn't help his own. Genetics is a bitch and after my residency ended I dropped everything and came looking for my half brother, in search of answers to why my son died, maybe our mother had something." Cade knew it was a long shot. Nox was what, sixteen when their mother died for real. What does a sixteen year old really know about their mother. He certainly hadn't cared much for Kathy at sixteen.
Other than his current antics on the internet, Nox's presence on line was non-existent before Moscow. Cade was pretty good at searching, he even had some contacts who could dig deeper than he could and the most information they found was a Kansas drivers liscene, several gun permits and a birth certificate. There was nothing. Whoever he was was a mystery to the world, and that meant he had a lot to hide, including a mother who abandoned a child.
