Gunther leaves her rooms and Gertie already knows how this is going to go.
It’s the third—no, the fourth time that they’ve done this dance, and she can’t help but she’s seen the ending before. She tells Gunther the truth. He goes to confront Archeron because he doesn’t quite believe her. Archeron does what he does and the whole cycle starts all over again.
She’s tired. But she is also determined to pry Gunther out of Archeron’s hands.
She gives it a few days, before she finds herself on Archeron’s front door again, prim and poised, only instead of Gunther answering the door, it’s Archeron. Her back straightens, but she doesn’t give away anything just yet.
“Good morning. I was looking for Gunther.”
“He’s sleeping. And I think we’re done with this little dance, Gertrude.”
She scowls. “I am not done. I’ll pry him from your cold, dead hands if I have to.”
“Threatening me will not get you what you want.”
“You can’t stop him from seeing me.”
Archeron’s face darkens as he leans in to meet her. “I will erase every inch of you from his memory if I have to. You can’t stop me, no matter how hard you try.”
She knows that. The problem is, she doesn’t understand why. She doesn’t know what it is about Gunther that Archeron feels the need to hold on to. She wishes she did. Instead, all she can do is look up to the bedroom window and see Gunther staring down above her, black circles under his eyes, and knows that she can’t simply let this go. She thinks of his finger locked in hers when they were younger—a promise to keep each other safe. She will find a solution.
Her attention swings back to Archeron. “Watch me.”
