Avoiding the question of why was easy especially when there was so much else to address. "I never asked for reciprocation did I? Things are fine as is... maybe I'm an emotional masochist, who knows and who cares because it's not going to be relevant to you. If you say all you can feel is negative or nothing than it should make no difference should it?" He pointed out since by his logic Dimitri shouldn't want to please him and Kane had showed no desire in killing or maiming him. Then again he also knew the demon to be beyond curious so he chose to focus on the comment which was public enough knowledge. "No. She is a demon, my father was a human." He shrugged, "Doesn't mean there aren't ways to kill one and my father knew enough to do it. I think he did it simply because he got bored of her but I suppose I will never really know." It wasn't like he was going to seek out the bastard's soul either, he was sure he got his dues in some form or another. He sometimes wondered how in the world him and that man were related, maybe his mom had cheated on him and that's how she met her end because there was certainly no love lost between them.<br/><br/>"But my mother was estranged from the 3rd house, a wild child who fled and pretty much the black sheep of the family. Syndar rarely speaks of her and yet against the odds I'm the apple of his eye now." He smirked at that saying with a bit of sarcastic humor. "I got my blood purged a long while ago though so I suppose I'm accepted as full now, as accepted as that gets." Most knew the history of the 3rd house and their struggles in the last century or so. They had lost a lot of people during the angelic wars and even more of their young had died or been disposed of. It was all a very dark and messy history and there was a point Syndar was almost out of heirs all together, to have Kane now and Iris, as well as a few others, was akin to a phoenix rising from the ashes but it didn't mean they were out of the woods yet as they tried to increase their numbers once more. It was no surprise them really that Kane, even with dirty blood from a human, was enough of a viable contender for the head of the house when under normal circumstance the high society might have turned their nose up at him.
