Nox was capable of normal conversation? Count Elias fooled.
"Thanks,"
he said when he took the water. He drank it all in one gulp and placed the glass aside. Apparently he was thirsty.
Lucas did tattoos, and when pointed out, he studied the drawing of one. Some kind of Celtic knot? It was rather interesting, and of course sparked Elias' imagination over whether he would go for anything like that. Despite his hair, eyeliner, clothes and pallor he really wasn't into body modifications. He had no piercings or body art. He hadn't avoided something like that. He simply hadn't considered it before. The permanence of it grated, though.
The unavoidable question included him, however. The guys might be surprised to learn the answer. "I'm a student."
One corner of his mouth twitched. The look on people's faces when he told them his major thoroughly amused him. "Marine Biology."
It wasn't technically true, given that he'd been expelled from the university and had yet to matriculate elsewhere. There was no point explaining all that, though. Surprisingly, something in him missed the consistency of the work. He liked his life in New Zealand, and damn his uncle for getting himself killed and ruining it.
He'd let Nox answer Lucas' question without adding onto it. He was only mildly interested in the answer anyway.
