I spread the comforter out on the bed, fixing it into place. Archer slept elsewhere again, but Iâm not even sure why that surprises me anymore.
No matter how much I tried not to, I had hoped that he would come sleep in the room. Of course, that hope was dashed like all the others.
My poor, stupid heart just canât see sense. It doesnât understand what my brain sees right in front of me.
There is nothing left to hope for.
I huff and stroll out of the room, heading down the stairs to the kitchen. My stomach rumbles, and I pull eggs and bacon from the fridge and grab a pan.
On autopilot, I once again make more food than Iâm going to eat. I sigh. I just canât help myself when it comes to that man; I make him a plate and set it in the warmer.
What the fuck is wrong with me? Iâm not even doing it consciously. I just keep making him food without even realizing it. And even after Iâve made my plate, thereâs still food left.
I trudge over to the table and flop in the chair. I pick up my fork and stab at my eggs, the dark cloud over me fully in place.
The front door opens, and I glance up at Angela who struts in with a grin.
âYou mean I donât have to drag you out of your room today? Thatâs progress,â Angela says.
âI made breakfast, and apparently, Iâm incapable of making enough for just myself lately.â I point to the stove.
âWhat do you mean?â
âNothing. Can you just go tell Archer thereâs a plate in the warmer for him? I donât want to talk about it.â I turn back to my plate and shovel some eggs into my mouth.
It wonât stop her from asking questions, but it feels good to have some semblance of control.
âYou made him food?â She opens the warmer like she doesnât believe me.
âIt keeps happening. I donât even realize Iâm doing it until itâs too late.â I shrug, hoping she will just let it go.
âYouâre caring for your mate. Are you sure itâs not your wolf?â she asks as she grabs a plate from the cabinet and loads it up with whatâs left over.
âI donât know, okay? I just donât fucking know.â I pick up a piece of bacon and bite into it, never turning to look at the disappointment Iâm certain is shining in her eyes.
After what he said and the things heâs done, I shouldnât be doing this, but I donât even know itâs happening.
âJust take him the food, please? I think heâs in his office.â I wave a hand to get her to go.
She stomps from the room, and I sigh with relief. Iâm over the interruption to my breakfast. I am over explaining things that I have no explanation for.
Iâm just over⦠everything.
My stomach drops to my toes, and I push the eggs around on my plate. What is she telling him in there?
Why do I even care? I wish I could turn my feelings off as easily as he does.
