Elias watched Adeline eat. She was slow with her bites, but chewed and swallowed them. His eyes flickered to her throat, where every action passed through his gaze. He noted she liked soups a lot and wasn't fond of the salads.
He smiled when delight filled her eyes, surprised by the taste of the uni pasta.
