That was a problem, though Xander didn't let his smile slip. And Z wasn't much different than Tobias. Who had seen him? Rowan was gone. She hadn't been back since the day he saw her. It was concerning in and of itself. Would the mistress of the house remember him? Would she know his name? Staying in one place was starting to cause problems.
"Sadly Rowan hasn't been available since the day I met her. I've been back for the Beignets several times." Not a lie. "Though you can definitely meet authentic cajuns. Some you might not understand at all." Xander pulled up the flyer on his wallet. He saved everything important. "Here's the flyer." Xander didn't ask for contact information. He didn't offer to wire it. He would if asked, but there were hoops to jump through. And today Z was out and about. Alexis rented the apartment -- everything came from him at the moment. Staying was beginning to become a problem... a retoric he wasn't about to change. Something kept him here... and Xander was afraid it might be a girl he wasn't even interested in.
Xander said neither yes nor no to the offer. His inner crisis still plaguing his mind. But if pressed he knew he'd say yes. It wasn't often you met interesting people, but he hoped that Rowan's absence might deter him. Now that Rowan was on his mind he was worried. That man had been a snake -- a fucking snake. And they were dangerous to anyone -- but to Rowan even more so. Fucking snakes. "Last I saw the voodoo preistess she was in the company of a dangerous man." Peril... misdirection... He only hoped he wasn't pressed.
