Dorian nodded. Good. He wouldn't have to epxlain to her why and how she wouldn't ever find the body much less the man. Doria smiled "A cold case -- missing person. His family is looking for him back in Italy, but like his father he's gone missing. Must run in the family. Running away from responsibilities and all." Dorian didn't have to worry about the missing person's case, they had come to Moscow looking, but they had nothing to offer him. His credit cards were not in use, his person hasn't been seen. He just sort of disappeared. Moscow was a place you could do that.
They didn't know he was dust on the wind -- there was no body, no evidence left, and this snow would wash away anything that may have lingered at the scene. But Dorian knew Nox was careful. Knew there was nothing to see, and Sage had cleaned up the rest. There would be nothing to find. And there was no guilt for the coverup -- there never had been. This was why Dorian was a cop in the first place. He was the bridge between the Atharim and the government. He hid what he had to and he did both jobs. It was hard getting out of that habit but he stilll did it.
