JACK
”Rickety? I beg your pardon,” Jack said indignantly, though the crooked smile playing across his lips suggested that Zephyr was one of the few people who could get away with that jibe. He shrugged and let out a sigh that pretended at lamenting, turning back to the ship that towered overhead. ”Well, I’m sure he’ll keep you on your toes, Zeph.”
The remark about Eloise drew Jack’s gaze back to the other man, and he reached out to swat at Zeph’s hand as he stole one of the flowers from the bouquet. ”The hell you would. If she so much as whispered in your ear you’d run a mile,” he shot back, knowing the dock worker to be very much in the bark-not-bite category. ”Unless you suddenly found your cock over Longnight, anyway.”
