“Go eat. Punch him if you have to,” Tori said, shooing me toward the back door.
I reluctantly washed my hands, then slipped out.
Madd was leaned up against the building, smelling like soap. His hair was damp, too. He held a large to-go bag in one hand, and a big foam cup from a gas station in the other.
I tried not to scowl when I realized I couldn’t smell my scent on his skin anymore, and failed.
Damn possessiveness.
“He’s ours,”my wolf said, her chest rumbling.
“I’m aware of your feelings, even if they’re shitty.”
Madd’s gaze moved over me slowly. “You look good in an apron.”
“If that’s your way of suggesting I become your housewife, you can walk away from me right now.”
“It’s not. You’d be a hot housewife, though.”
I rolled my eyes, but took the bag of food from his hands.
He gestured toward his truck. It was parked in the employee lot, facing a brick wall and a few tall pine trees. “Figured you’d want some privacy.”
I didn’t want to tell him he was right.
“What kind of soda do you drink?” I asked him, my gaze flicking to the foam cup.
“What is this, a personality test?”
I couldn’t hold back my snort at his reminder of our conversation the night before. “I already passed with flying colors, considering you won’t leave me alone. So, I’d say it’s my turn to test you.”
He chuckled, opening the driver’s door. I slipped in past him, claiming that seat so I wouldn’t end up in the same position I’d been in the last time Iwas in his truck.
Madd closed the door behind me. A moment later, he’d taken the passenger seat, and set the foam cup on the console between us. “I drink Coke from time to time. This isn’t soda, though.”
So he’d filled a foam cup with water. Weird, but whatever.
I was already breaking one of the containers open. “Are these both the same?”
My stomach grumbled—for both food, and blood. I’d all but drained him the night before, but my body was still recovering from starvation. At my healthiest, I only needed to drink blood once a week.
“The bottom one has extra fries.”
I handed the top one to him immediately, popping the second box open. I felt his eyes on me, and ignored them as I took a massive bite of the burger.
It was heavenly.
He focused on his own burger after a moment, and we ate in comfortable silence.
My fingers caught the foam cup.
I wrapped my lips around the straw and took a big gulp of the water.
It—
Ohhh.
It wasn’t water.
