Dropping the first parcel upon a neighbor’s doorstep, he returned to the sled, intending to persist in the delivery process, when he heard his name called, quite loudly, over the snow and pathways.

It didn’t seem to matter a moment later anyway, because her attention was drawn towards Belial – who flashed his fanged grin and unfurled his wings, clearly proud of being the one gaining the attention instead of Zuriel this time. “My companion. A peryton.” His glance went back and forth between the pair, before shaking his head. “Did you need something?”
