Chapter 329

**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?

"No, thank you. I'm pretty full already."

"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.
