Chapter 8 - Dinner

in another city.....

Alex, Josh and Kyle were ready to go back home, they were at the runway where the private airplane will pick them up, They were like fifty guards at the runway waiting for them, Alex was the main deal and he was the heir and now the owner of black enterprises.

Alex was capable of beating fifty men on his own, he trained non stop when he was a teenager, when they went out for summer during school days, he trained and trained, now he could handle almost anyone without a bodyguard by his side, his teacher was actually surprised because he was still young but could still beat ten men hands down.

In the black mansion....

After two hours of hard work preparing the dish, it was finally done.

she gave Abi a bowl filled with soup. Have some she told her sweetly.

when Abi put the spoon close to her mouth, she blew some air into it because it was very hot, then she tasted it....Ari looked at every corner of her face to see her reaction, Ari started to become worried because when she looked at her face it was totally blank.

Ariana...huh she has never called her full name before, yes Abi she answered, is it that bad she thought to herself...

it....is... Amazing, Ari was relieved after she heard that, why did you scare me that way Abi she pouted her mouth, she was red with anger.

I'm sorry Ari, it was too good, I had no reactions to show you how good it was...she grinned.

Abi continued taking the soup from the bowl with a spoon she couldn't stop, it was too good to resist.

Can I have some Ari she asked with pleading eyes, but this is your second time.

we won't have enough to give Alex and his friends she tried to reason with her.

fine, fine but you can't stop me from the licking and scraping the pot when you are done.....Abi said with sincerity on her face, Ari knew she wasn't joking.

fine woman, Ari said as he raised her hands up to show submission...you can have the pot..

They both laughed hard..

umm sorry to disturb you madam but young master us back...a voice was heard, it was the Butler.

Abi was scared, she didn't want to get in trouble with the senior maid so she hid behind Ariana.

The Butler noticed someone was behind, he was about to peep and check who it was untill he was stopped by Ari.....it's fine she's with me, I told her to come assist me in the kitchen.

But madam, you are not supposed to be her the Butler told her worried because it was against the rules for the masters to enter the kitchen when they are still in service.

Don't worry, I insist you don't have to worry besides Abi will help me dish the food, she said with warmth written all over her face.

The Butler thought about it before agreeing to her request, okay mam, as you wish then he bowed down and left the kitchen after giving abi a stern look.

Alex went back to his room to shower after a long day, he didn't see anyone in the room, which was definitely Ari so where did she go.

He removed his clothes and hopped in the bathtub relaxed without making a sound, after some minutes he came out of the bathroom with a towel tied around his waist and his hair still wet then he saw Ari

Ari opened her eyes widely, turned around.

Uhmmm I.... I.. her brain wasn't in the correct format because of what she saw, as if he was given extra time to be created, his abs, torso was perfectly chiseled just seeing that made her cheeks turn into a full red tomatoes.

what do you want to say go on...Alex said with his cold voice giving her chills to her bone, it seems he was walking because his footsteps could be heard....wait he was coming in this direction.

then she felt his arms run through the helms of her cloth, that gave her chills but in a good way...I....I, she wanted to say something.

When she turned around, she was dumbstruck, Alex was actually going for his clothes in the wardrobe. she was close to the wardrobe.

But why did she feel that way in the first place, Abi regained her composure, straightened up her shoulder and told him why she came here.

your dinner is ready she said with a lot of composure in her voice.

uhmm I will be downstairs if you need me, as she walked to the door and closed it behind her, she rested on the door, why Abi....she asked herself...

What will he need me for? stupid! uggh then she went to the kitchen maybe to find someone to help her out of this stupid mess.

where is Abi, for goodness sake, when she needs her, she isn't there, then she went back to the dining area, Kyle and Josh were already there, it seems like they were hungry.

They were chattering with each other, when they saw her, they immediately turned and smile.

Josh started the conversation, hmm Ariana am I right, yes I'm, Ariana said and smiled with confidence.

he stood up, went close.....it's nice to meet your acquaintance, then he brought fought her hand and decided to kiss the hand.

unknown to him, a deadly aura was surrounding the dining room, it was Alex who was looking at their little get together far from the dining room, his eyes was strictly on josh's hand holding his wife's.

Immediately josh his eyes that were bringing out blood lust, he tried to trace where his eyes were looking at so dangerously, and he saw he was looking at his hand still holding Ari's hand.

He immediately removed his hand, Ari was surprised at the sudden movements of josh until he saw that Josh was looking at something else, it was Alex.

Ari saw something different from the Alex she knew, this time he was much more dangerous but what caused this.

Kyle too was perplexed why he was emitting this cold aura.

she tried to break the awkward silence between them ....

The soup will get cold, let's eat.....Ari said because it looked like Alex eyes wanted to tear josh body apart.

Alex went to his seat, it seemed like his dangerous aura that was in the air went down.

Ari decided to dismiss the maids before they even arrived, she wanted them to feel relaxed.

she served josh and Kyle, then Alex last.

Kyle and Josh started taking the soup, they were astonished, the soup tasted really good.

wow the chef in this house stepped up his A game, the soup tasted really good from the last time I came here, he said taking more.

It's Ariana that made it....Alex said with confidence.... oh the both of them stopped taking the soup to look at Alex.

Alex looked like he was enjoying it but it didn't show it, he was taking more than he usually takes, is it because it was Ariana that made it.

Kyle and Josh bother looked at each other and shrugged, It's really good, Kyle said.

Thanks, Ari said shyly.

I will be upstairs, Alex said he seemed like he didn't feel good, Ari thought maybe he was full.

After, Kyle and Josh finished eating their foods, thanked Ari for the nice delicacy.

Ari nodded, and tell Alex, we will be going now, we were supposed to stay here for two more days but family emergency, I hope you can understand, Kyle tried to reason with her.

oh okay, bye then.

After they left, Ari decided to clear up the dining table but Abi the young maid, I guess you are done, she said smiling, now you can't stop me from licking their plates. she said mischievously. They both chuckled.

Yes Abi, it's all yours, she said giving her the sweetest smile. Ari continued the task she was doing by clearing up the dishes.

Abi saw what she was doing and asked, what do you think you are doing Ari, she said angrily.

I'm clearing up the dishes, what do you think, Ari answered honestly

Nooo you are our madam, do you want me to stand here like a fool Ari, no you go to your room, you already had a long day, so it will be best if you leave it to me plsss, she begged.

okay fine fine, do what you want,Ari said raising her both hands up like she surrendered. Honestly she didn't mind clearing, she always did with Aunt Amelia even though she tried to stop her countless of times.

So Ari headed to the room, she saw the light was off, so she reached the switch to on it back. what she saw scared her to her core A..Alex, she screamed.
