Eden could see the turmoil in Thane's eyes. He was thinking those insane yet true thoughts Eden knew all too well. This was something they both wanted, even needed. Other agents did it from time to time. But that was all it was allowed to be. Just the occasional roll in the sheets. Nothing more. Love.. was a thing they could not risk. Even say out loud. There were not any traditional relationships allowed. Their missions were first. No if, and or but's. Of coarse children did happen, but they did not come without penalties. As much as Eden hated it, they would simply have to stay partners. She was about to speak, even opened her mouth when their came a knock on the door. It must have been their dinner. She closed her mouth and smiled.
"I got it." She said simply before getting up and dressing quickly. Running her fingers threw her messy hair before stepping out of the bedroom and to the door. Eden barely got within three feet before the door burst open. She was met with a shock wave of magical energy, sending her back and into the far wall. Although this time she braced herself. Kicking back from the wall, maneuvering over the couch, and grabbing her device from the coffee table. Threw the door came three figures in dark robes. Four more behind them. Eden dodged another attack while she took her gun out. Shooting two of the robed figures straight threw the head. But.. They did not fall. Their hoods fell , showing the stone mages behind the robes. They were moving just as humans, but their entire face was made of stone.
