Roger glanced at Chrys, who was reading a large book. He gave Dina a crooked smile. “Well, Daddy fought werewolves once. And a djinn in a desert cave. And vampires in Rumania, and he personally, personally drove a silver dagger through the eye of a fallen angel that was helping the Nazis.”
Dina looked at him with grave eyes, then rolled them in a fashion that only young kids could. “Da-deee,” she chided, then skipped off.
Chrys spoke from behind her book. “The least you could do is lie to her.”
