One thing that Lina learned today was that in the one thousand years that had passed, Kaden's cooking had improved. He went from burning fishes caught from the river to serving her a full-course meal.
Lina enjoyed every moment of his performance and meal. From the way his long fingers curled around the hilt of the knife to the way he rubbed them together to sprinkle seasoning. Within thirty minutes, he had prepared the perfect meal for her.
Lina's mouth watered at the sight of the perfectly seared steak cooked with butter, garlic, and rosemary, sliced on top of a bed of creamy mashed potato with a hint of thyme, served with a side of refreshing salad and vegetables.
"Good?" Kaden teased, cleaning the countertop as her eyes rolled back at the meal. The corner of his mouth curled upwards as she nodded her head, but proceeded to lie.
"No, it tastes burnt," Lina stated, whilst placing another piece of meat into her mouth, moaning at the taste.
