He was clearly caught off guard by the daring way she removed his feet from the desk. A widening of clear green eyes as he was thrust forward by his chair as it returned to a resting position. He held the coffee gingerly in one hand, away from himself. Threatened that it might spill down his already stained dress shirt. “Then get it refinished again,” he replied, tone halfway to a growl as he flipped hair out of his eyes with a toss of his head. He did not, however, risk putting his shoes back on the desk’s surface. He only moved his chair forward to sit at the desk properly as she dropped into a chair across from him. He set the quickly cooling coffee down, very pointedly putting it on a coaster. The lift of his brows seemed to ask ‘happy?’
“I have patience for many things.” A lie. And he certainly did not have the same patience as she. “A continuously screaming child is not one of them.” Elliot was not interested in her approcal or disapproval. The baby could have a voice once more when the warlock deemed it deserved one. He frowned, already displeased by the affection she was displaying for the child.
Unfortunately, he was just that creative, and appeared to have no qualms about expressing it. “Ethan... something... Hart,” he revealed with another lazy wave of his hand. “Something with an ‘A’ I think, I don’t fucking care.” He pretended to be disinterested, but he gauged her reaction, carefully. Not that he ever got one from Eden. Someday, maybe, she would reveal something on those pretty features outside of bedroom. Well, the bedroom and all the other places he chose to have her. Regardless, he would be there to catch her if she slipped.
“Until I say otherwise.” There was a command to his tone that revealed that this decision was final. He huffed. “I don't care what you do with it as long as you keep it alive.” ‘For now’ went without saying. If he’d decided he didn’t need it, he would simply shove the whole thing back into the hole he’d dug it up from.
