He'd frightened her, somehow; he wasn't complaining, but it hadn't been expected at this juncture. Had she noticed his eyes? Was she simply feeling vulnerable at being approached while so dressed?
His eyes flared brighter until the moment passed.
"Oh, yes," he assured her. "You did everything that I asked in exactly the way that I hoped you would, you clever girl." Something about her craved praise, and he couldn't help but offer it freely when she was being so biddable. It was such a rare trait, really. At least the kind that was useful to him.
It was early and she was small, so he poured her a simple glass of apple cider. He set it gently in front of her, watching her try to pace herself. He cut her another slice of quiche without asking, and slid it onto her plate. He added a little brioche bun beside it.
"They were not," he agreed. "As I said – you did a marvelous job, and I am quite satisfied with your performance." The corner of his mouth crooked. "Ask what you like. I may not answer, but I do not mind."
