The quiet hum of the air conditioner filled the spacious office, accompanied only by the soft scratching of a pen against paper. Elion sat behind his massive mahogany desk, his piercing gaze flickering toward the woman seated across from him.
Raelynn idly drummed her fingers on the smooth surface, shifting in her seat as she watched Elion review some documents. She tilted her head slightly, letting out a small, exaggerated sigh. "You really made Kade go get our lunch?"
Elion didn't even look up as he responded, his voice even and calm. "Don't worry, it's part of his job."
Raelynn raised an eyebrow. "I thought he was your right-hand man, not your personal delivery guy."
Elion smirked, setting down his pen. "Same thing."
She huffed a small laugh, shaking her head. Before she could comment further, the door swung open, and in walked Kade, carrying two neatly packed lunch boxes in a plastic bag. He placed them on the desk with an exaggerated sigh, giving both of them a flat look.
