said.
| opened my eyes and realized | was leaning against Edward's chest. He was holding a glass of water and two
pills.
| sat up quickly, took the pills, and swallowed them with the water.
“Where am 1?” | asked, taking in the masculine, sturdy bedroom around me.
“This is my place,” Edward replied.
| was totally thrown off. | thought he was takingto the hospital. Why were we at his house?
“Why didn’t we go to the hospital?” | asked, my voice barely above a whisper.
Edward smiled. “I've got a family doctor. Going to the hospital would've been a hassle.”
| just stared at him, a little dazed, and he reached out to gently ruffle my hair. “Don’t worry so much. Look at
you, you're a mess. | promise, you're safe with me.”
“You look wiped out. Try to get ssleep,” Edward said softly, settlingonto the bed and making sure | was
comfortable.
After a little while, the doctor cin and spoke quietly with Edward.
In the end, | had to get an IV. While the nurse was setting it up, Edward never left my side, keeping watch over

smile. “Are you hungry? | can have someone bring you something to eat.”
He'd caught me, so there was no point in pretending anymore.
| nodded. “Yeah, I'm a bit hungry. Do you have any gruel? | just want something light.”
Edward set his papers aside and turned, locking eyes withfor a long moment. “I've had it ready for a while.
Letbring it in for you.”

Before long, he cback with a bowl of vegetable gruel and a few cute little pies, all looking fresh and
delicious.
“Csit on the couch and eat,” Edward said, setting the food down.
| got out of bed and walked over to the couch, sitting down.
| took a quick look out the window, but all | could see were big trees blocking my view. There was no way to tell
what was going on outside.
“Is this where you actually live?” | asked him.
Edward nodded. “Yeah, is something wrong?”
“Are you sure it’s okay forto be here? Won't it cause you any trouble?” | said, surprised.
Edward gave a casual shrug. “Trouble? You mean, worried about my reputation?”
| couldn’t think of any real reason, so | just stood there, speechless.
Edward said gently, “Con, stop overthinking it. Just eat.”
| picked up the gruel and took a spoonful. It tasted just like home. | glanced up at Edward-he’d made this just for
me. Did he actually try to recreate the taste of my hometown just for me?
This guy... he was so attentive, it was almost scary. If he set his sights on someone, they'd be doomed-no
chance to fight back, you'd just end up falling for him.
Edward sat beside me, watching as | ate. When he sawspacing out, he chuckled. “What are you thinking
about now? Don’t overthink it. If you ask me, you should just open your heart and roll with whatever fate hands
you.”
“I'm not as unfazed as you are, and | definitely don’t have your knack for handling trouble,” | said with a self-
deprecating
smile.
“You really think I'm that amazing?” Edward gave a small, teasing smile and leaned in closer to me.
My heart gave a little jolt, and | nodded. “If you weren't, you wouldn't be where you are now.”
Edward chuckled. “So, do you want
someone strong PRS yourhatk?

then suddenly said, “Ryan and Fiopa

| swallowed another spoonful of gruel, and couldn’t help but admit-he made sense.
If | kept locking myself up in my own little world, I'd just end up as unhappy as | was before.
Ryan was part of my past now; there’s nothing left tyingto him anymore.
