That mind of his was spinning as Deucalion started to put things together, yet when she apologized the man simply shrugged his broad shoulders and spoke up once more. "Well then, by all means do please come in." And with that the wolf invited her even, moving to pull out her chair for her at the dining table too. Without saying another word he patiently waited for her to join him, before grabbing their wine and sitting down across from Elena. "The wine was paired with the meal in particular, but as I said before...if you'd prefer a different bottle that can be arranged as well." There was no trace of worry or concern on his face; if anything the Alpha seemed quite comfortable to be sitting right there. Oh he had survived all these decades by being quite clever, and by learning how to read others too. From what the wolf could tell, well it was clear that she posed no intentional threat presently, and so the man decided to press on with their evening as planned.
