| snorted as | walked over. "What are you doing?" | pulled out a chair and sat
down. | crossed my arms as Rowan uncorked the wine and poured a glass. | just watched as he slid the glass
towardsand poured himself a glass.
"lI am enjoying a meal, while | clear up sthings with someone special." His words sounded so sincere. But |
just snorted.
"I'm not hungry." | snapped out again, but then my body betrayedby letting out a loud growl. He just lifted a
brow. "Fine!" | snatched my glass and took a big drink. Rowan snorted and uncovered the plate in front of me.
The smell of steak and baked potato hittingin the face, causing my stomach to growl once more.
Rowan chuckled as he uncovered his own plate of food. | growled softly as | glared over my glass of wine. OI
needed another drink, so | downed the remaining wine in my glass. Rowan had already picked up the bottle to fill
my glass, so | just held it out. He shook his head as a smirk graved his lips. "I know you have every right to hate
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme, but please just listen tofor the duration of this meal. Then if you still want nothing to do with me..." He
trailed off as he put down the bottle. "Goddess, | hope that doesn't happen, but | would respect your wishes." He
looked over atand for the first tin a long time, | believed him.
"Fine." | put down my glass and grabbed my fork. | wasn't stupid enough to starve myself just to stick it to him.
He was obviously staying until he said his peace. I'm not going to let Clara's food go to waste. "But." He looked
up from his plate and met my gaze. "When this is over." | waved my knife between us. "I don't want to see you,
or talk to you, unless it has to do with Vince and his clowns."
Rowan sat back. "You don't want to talk to me?" He chewed at his lip and | groaned inside. "Like at all?"
| was staring at his lip, and | needed to snap out of it. Nix and Megan were no help at all, as they were back to
purring. | shook my head. "I will do my duty to you and our kind. | will ensure you continue your reign as king,
but for my sake...a clean break is necessary." | tilted my head. "And | think that includes Erubus coming to see
Nix and Megan."
Hey! Nix called out.
But Megan just shushed her. She's right. If we still see him, we won't ever give anyone a fair shake. Megan
looked back at me. | don't want to hurt Amy anymore than | already have.
Nix looked between us and then sighed. Fine. Then she stalked away.
Rowan watchedfor a few seconds before he sat back with a nod. "Fine."
| felt my stomach unclench. "Fine." | shook off the tiny pit in my stomach and started eating. | waited for a few
seconds before | glanced up at Rowan. "Are you going to start, or are you just going to stare at me?"
He smiled and gave a tiny nod as he grabbed his own wineglass and upended it. He placed his glass done softly
and grabbed his own fork and knife. “Its funny." He chuckled as he sliced into his steak.
"What is?" | took a bite.
He chewed his mouthful slowly, then swallowed "had this entire thing planned out. After you outran Erubus
earlier, | chere to wait. | spent the entire tplanning on what | would say and how I could fix
everything..." He trailed off and looked atas he cut into his steak.
"And now?" | tilted my head as | stuck a new piece of steak into my mouth.
He sighed. "Now | don't know what
to say. | don't even think | could say anything to make you change your mind." He grabbed the wine and
filled up his glass before pulle
out
his phone. He dialed someone and waited. "Hi. Can | get like three more bottles of wine to Amy's room, please,
Clara?" He waited for a second. "Any will do. I just need to work up the courage." There was a soft giggle. "Thank
you." He hung up his phone and turned back top me. | raised my eyebrow, and he smiled, then downed another
glass of wine. "I don't even know if | should try to explain it at all."
| felt like a noose was tightening around my neck. | shook off the feeling and
shook my head a little. "Oh...why is that?"
"Because." He took in a deep breath through his nose. "You deserve way better than me."
