Chapter 17
For the next few days, I avoided Ryker as much as I possibly could. I stayed in my room all day and barely left it unless it was absolutely necessary. Whenever I saw him. I would mumble a greeting and leave the area as quickly as I could.
He knew I was avoiding him, hell, everyone knew I was avoiding him and I knew at one point he would get fed up with it and demand an explanation from me. What I didn’t expect was for it to happen today.
Today started like any normal day, I took a bath by myself and because I had no plans of going out, I put on a really pretty black night gown and lay in bed.
Eve brought me my breakfast as usual and when I was done, I took the tray downstairs because Lucy had told Ryker to inform me that I needed to walk around a little every day to make sure that I was exercising the leg.
While I was taking my tray down. I saw Ryker at the dining table. I flushed pink in embarrassment and hurried to return the tray to Eve. I rushed back upstairs not even realizing that he had spoken to me and I had ignored him.
I successfully locked myself in the room when a few minutes later I heard a knock. It was not soft like Eve’s but it also wasn’t overly violent. I ignored it the first time and it grew louder.
“Fuck this shit Camilla,” I heard Ryker say through the other side; “We’re talking about this today.”
I still wasn’t convinced on whether or not to open it but then he said, “I have a spare key downstairs and I am not above using it. I am only doing this because I want you to have a say in this. But so help me if you don’t open this door in the next three minutes I will find my own way in.”
I knew he was going to make do on his threat so I exhaled deeply and unlocked the door. He was standing there in a black button up shirt and matching slacks. He looked like he was prepared for a day of work while I was in frilly long sleeved pajamas. I’m sure it would have been a sight to behold for anyone who saw it.
He looked frustrated and annoyed but he managed to keep his composure as he walked into the room and took a seat on the chair directly opposite my bed. I remained standing and he gestured for me to sit down on the bed.
I hesitated for a second and I could see that it annoyed him because he clenched his jaw but he didn’t show any other outward signs of his annoyance. I quietly took a seat at the edge of the bed and the room fell into an uncomfortable silence.
“Camilla,” Ryker spoke up after a beat of silence, “Why are you avoiding me?”
“I am not avoiding you.” I lied and he shot me a disbelieving look.
