She originally planned to deliver the meal at five, then head back for her own dinner.

However, things took a turn and it took two hours before she could hand it over to Stuart at seven. Now, as she watched Stuart eat, her own stomach began to grumble, reminding her she hadn't eaten yet. "Morwenna, are you hungry?"

"Uh, yeah... a bit," she admitted, her cheeks flushing slightly. It was somewhat embarrassing, wanting to eat the food she had brought for someone else.

But the hunger was real, especially as she watched him eat.

That was a new one for Stuart. Throughout his life, people had called him ruthless or cold-hearted, but never kind. Yet, Morwenna had praised him more than once.
