"If you're willing," Daemon agreed easily, though his gold eyes turn a little more wary.
He was surprised at himself. He'd been the one to suggest that they find somewhere more suitable to talk, yes, but he hadn't thought he'd react to her choice of the hostel with...caution. Let's call it caution. Until this point he'd been confident enough. He'd overpowered Blood far more overtly powerful than she—but perhaps the description of overtly was part of his concern? She had a kind of magic he didn't understand, and he had not survived this long by being careless, not when the kind of privacy they were about to find had sometimes been more dangerous for him than he'd care to admit.
"That sounds good," he says anyway. "Lead the way?"
