CHAPTER 26 Promise To Make It Fun

  Macy POV

  Edward takes the stairs two at a time, holding me close to his chest. Anger is radiating off his body, but I take comfort in it. It is not anger directed at me. For the first time in Edward's life, he wants to protect me, or at least I think he does. 

  He storms past my bedroom, and I glance over his shoulder. "My room…" 

  "We aren't going to your room," he growls. 

  Peering over his shoulder, I look for Winston, but he isn't following us. "Where is Winston?" 

  "He is taking care of things downstairs while I take care of you," he grumbles. 

  "That's… different," I reply. 

  He kicks open a door and steps inside. "What do you mean?"

  "Shut up," I hiss at her. 

  Edward lays me gently on a bed and hovers over me. "I am going to pretend you were talking to Nyx." 

  "I was," I stumble over my words. 

  He offers me a rare, genuine smile and backs away from me. "What are you wearing?"
