**Archie's POV **

Something is wrong with Harper. She is trying to pretend everything is fine, but I can sense her growing anxiety. Was Dillon right? Is she nervous about bonding with us?

"How can you be full? You've not even eaten half the bowl," I ask.

"I'm just tired I guess," she shrugs, but her gaze briefly flicks towards the unbonded table before going back to her food.
