"I'm sure my guests would have preferred it if I had. Fortunately you were with them... I have a soft spot for dark hair and blue eyes." He purposely let that hang in the air for a moment before adding in a low rich tone. "Softer still for one that defends the honor of a warlock."
Brushing past that fact, he figured that was enough in way of thanks for her words. He'd pretended it was of no consequence when it happened. Yet, with just the two of them, he wanted her to know it meant far more. "Your sister is formidable in personality but also chaotic. You are the anchor to her and the chaos that is Jace Way-whatever. I know it started with way."
He released the cat to wave it off and the Chairman hopped off his lap. His golden eyes watched the cat move from him to Alec. The ball of fur sniffed her a little then softly weaved through her legs. "The Chairman likes you..." It made him smile to see it.
But as soon as she said she wanted tea, he snapped his fingers and a cup appeared in her hands. As well as one in his own. "I am prone to laziness." Meaning he had no intention of getting up, even after his cat left him for her.
He looked up suddenly from his tea, however... at her question. Letting his eyes study her, he weighed all the pros and cons of the situation in his mind. Finally he breathed in slowly and decided it was worth the risk. "Well... How about I buy you dinner tonight and you can tell me as I drop you off if you want to see me again. Fair enough? Besides... if my cat likes you, I can date you."
