"Have you decided on anything yet?"
Tessa didn't hesitate.
"I'll take the largest cut of your roasted venison," she said confidently. "And double the mashed potatoes."
The waiter blinked once but nodded professionally.
"Of course."
Mira followed smoothly.
"Roasted lamb with rosemary. Fire-spiced potatoes on the side. And a glass of red wine."
Isolde closed her menu gently.
"Herb-roasted venison as well. Mushroom cream stew. And tea."
Aria glanced at Elion again before speaking.
"Honey-glazed duck," she said. "And the sweet berry cider."
The waiter turned to Elion.
"And for you, sir?"
Elion smiled lightly.
"Grilled river bass with garlic butter. Roasted vegetables. And whatever strong ale you recommend."
The waiter nodded, scribbling the last note.
"I'll have everything out shortly."
As he left, Tessa leaned forward and folded her arms on the table.
"We all agreed that you're paying you're way," she said again, pointing at Elion.
He raised a brow.
