Then tell her to, but do it in a kind manner, okay?â
âOkayâ
He goes back to eating, and soon heâs done. He leaves the table and tells me heâs going to have his bath
before he sleeps.
A few minutes later, Iâm done with my dinner. Iâm exhausted, and I just want to sleep. I get up, just as
Rowan comes back.
âYouâre done?â he asks, sitting down.
âYesâ¦I wanted to check on Iris first, then go to sleep.â
âIâll be up in a few.â
I nod my head and make my way to the master bedroom. Itâs right next to Irisâs room. After making sure
that sheâs asleep, I head to my bedroom.
Deciding to soak my tired body first, I run myself a bath. I get in and just let my mind wander. Everything
has been so confusing since I woke up. I want to believe that things changed, but I canât help but feel
that
something isnât right.
Rowanâs behavior is on top of the things I feel arenât right. Like, when did he change? And can I trust this
new change in him, or am I bound to be more heartbroken than I already am?
The way heâs behaving right now is how Iâve always wanted him to be, so why canât I trust him?
I get out of the tub when the water gets cold. Wrapping my body in a towel, I go in search of something
to
wear. The closet and drawers are filled with clothes. Only problem is that theyâre all brand new. I
recognize none of them.
I take a red nightgown and put it on. After that, I go and check on both Iris and Noah. They were all
asleep. I pass a clock in the hallway and realize that itâs nine. I honestly didnât know that I stayed in the
tub that long.
I freeze when I go back to the room and find Rowan there. Forcing myself to unfreeze, I steadily walk
towards the bed, pull the covers and get in. His eyes are on me the entire time.
âWhy are all my clothes new?â I ask him.
âWhen you got pregnant, your old clothes obviously didnât fit, so you gave them away to charity. After
them away and bought you new ones,â he says. âI only bought a few to tide you over. You can buy more.
later on
nod my head. That made sense.
âAnd about my pregnancy, you said youâd explain why I have a baby with another man.â
Something passes in his eyes, but itâs gone before I can decipher it.
âCan we talk about it some other time? Iâm tired and I just want to sleep
and worn out. Like he
I wanted to argue, but the way he looked caught my attention. He did look tired and worn hasnât slept in
days or weeks.
I nod my head in acceptance and wait for him to leave. Only he doesnât. Instead he begins taking off his
clothes. I watch unable to speak as he takes everything off until the only stitch of clothing remaining is
his boxer.
He starts walking towards the bed, and my mind unfreezes.
âUh, what are you doing?â I ask nervously.
He gets inside the bed. âSleepingâ
âWhat? Here? in this bed?â I stammer.
yes, is that a
problem?â
I gulp. âWeâve never slept in the same bedâ
And it was true, Like I said, we would have sex, then heâd leave. We had separate bedrooms. So this is a
first.
Using the remote control, he turns off the lights.
âWell thatâs going to change. Youâre my wife. We should be sharing a bedâ
âButâ¦â
He shushes me by turning me around and spooning me. My ass is right over his crotch, and his arm is
wrapped tightly around my waist. Itâs not uncomfortable, but itâs new, so Iâm tense.
âWill you just relax and sleep?â he whispers against the back of my neck, making me shiver.
1 force myself to relax. Within minutes, heâs out. I stay awake for hours, but eventually I fall asleep.
inething was definitely going on because the Rowan I know would never sleep in the same bed as me,
alone hold me like he is
Just need to figure out what Iâm missing and what changed. The key to figuring that out lay in my
Jumbled mind. I have to get my memories back.
