Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 507

I snorted as I walked over. “What are you doing?” I pulled out a chair and sat down. I crossed my arms as Rowan uncorked the wine and poured a glass. I just watched as he slid the glass towards me and poured himself a glass.

“I am enjoying a meal, while I clear up some things with someone special.” His words sounded so sincere. But I just snorted.

“I’m not hungry.” I snapped out again, but then my body betrayed me by letting out a loud growl. He just lifted a brow. “Fine!” I 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 hitting me in the face, causing my stomach to growl once more.

Rowan chuckled as he uncovered his own plate of food. I growled softly as I glared over my glass of wine. OI needed another drink, so I downed the remaining wine in my glass. Rowan had already picked up the bottle to fill my glass, so I just held it out. He shook his head as a smirk graved his lips. “I know you have every right to hate me, but please just listen to me for 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, I hope that doesn’t happen, but I would respect your wishes.” He looked over at me and for the first time in a long time, I believed him.

“Fine.” I put down my glass and grabbed my fork. I 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.” I 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 I groaned inside. “Like at all?”

I was staring at his lip, and I needed to snap out of it. Nix and Megan were no help at all, as they were back to purring. I shook my head. “I will do my duty to you and our kind. I will ensure you continue your reign as king, but for my sake…a clean break is necessary.” I tilted my head. “And I 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. I don’t want to hurt Amy anymore than I already have.
