Christian gaped at his nemesis. Flirting?! Nox had to be messing with him right now. There was absolutely no way all of that was flirting.
Saving the person you were actively working against was wild enough; flirting involved some degree of attraction. There was no way this weird guy liked him like that. That was so messed up he was getting the heebie jeebies just thinking about it!
"You were what?!" he screeched.
Nox cracked up so hard he doubled over. He wrapped one arm around his stomach and pointed the other at Christian gleefully. "Your face! Hahahaha! I really had you going for a minute there, didn't I?"
"Were you seriously teasing me again?!"
"Duh. Who ever heard of a villain having a crush on their hero?"
He frowned. "I'm not 'your' hero."
