“Yummy.”
“Good. You keep eating, though.” Tobias’s voice was firm and it surprised Jenner. He narrowed his gaze at the other man, unsure he liked the idea of him bossing Immy around.
It was one thing when he was guarding her. Completely another when it came to her care. He expected Immy to get her guard up. She let them all boss her around because she knewthey loved her and wanted what was best for her. That didn’t mean she’d let just anyone do it.
So he wasn’t surprised when she sighed. But he was shocked when she took the mouthful he was holding up to her.
Hmm. Was it because she was still sleepy?
“You’re bossy,” she grumbled at Tobias.
His lips twitched. “You need bossy.”
“Don’t.”
“No? Hmm. That’s not my experience so far.” On that note, he winked at her and left the kitchen.
Immy was silent for a long moment.
“Immy?” Jenner asked.
She jumped as though in surprise.
“You okay?”
She moved off his lap onto the stool next to him and kept her gaze lowered. “Jenner, I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have been on your lap like that.”
He frowned. She always sat on his lap like that. He wouldn’t like it if she stopped doing that.
“I’m just going to go shower and . . . get ready for tomorrow.”
“Wait! Immy! Your pills.”
“I’ll get them later.”
Fuck.
That was . . . weird. And he didn’t like it. Why would she apologize for sitting on his lap? And what experience was Tobias talking about?
He felt like he was completely out of the loop.
And he fucking hated it.

Immy felt like she was being watched.
Which was dumb.
Because of course she was being watched.
But it wasn’t really her they were staring at, it was Jenner. That’s what happened in public with him. They were nearly through the security at the airport, though. Thank God.
They had a private room to wait in once they got past this part.
Still. She had this weird creepy feeling that she couldn’t seem to shake. It was likely because of everything that had happened with Maeve. Now, anyone staring at her felt threatening.
You’re being silly.
