《His Personal Chef》Chapter 9
Advertisement
I woke to the knocking of my door bell. I ignored it hoping whoever it was would get the message but as soon as I got comfortable again, there was that annoying sound. I swung my legs to the side of my bed, slipped on my slippers and went to open the door. But I think I was still sleeping, because I'm not sure why he would be here right next now. "Damien?" I asked shocked.
The fact that it was 2am and there he was in his shorts and shirt I could tell he plans on staying the night here but how did he manage to look so good at this time. Damn! I don't know how long I was ogling because when I finally broke out of my trance he had a small self satisfied smirk on his perfectly, slightly parted pink lips. I stepped to the side allowing him to enter but he didn't enter.
"You look messy shit." He muttered under his breath but I heard it. I caught my appearance in the near by mirror and to say his statement is true. In my defence it's 2 am.
"What do you want, Mr Knight?" I folded my arms waiting for a good explanation as to why he freaking disturbed me at this time.
"We need some coffee."
"Are you telling me that you woke my up at this time to make you coffee?" How could he? He has been nothing but rude to me and look at his guts. Asking more like ordering me to make him some coffee. What an idiot!
"Winnie, please make us a good coffee." I heard dad's voice from behind as Damien smirked. "Some snacks with coffee would be perfect." He turned around leaving me stunned. What?

"Wait, wait!" I stopped him, he turned around raising his eyebrows at me, impatiently. It was like I was taking his precious time, is he for serious?
"Magic word." I said. He groaned and turned back around. "Then forget about the coffee, Damien." He walked away not bothering with me. I closed my door shut. The least I deserve is being politely asked.
Well let me tell you. It used to happen all the time 4 years ago. Damien used to come and stay at nights for photoshoot or some business related talks with dad, staying up all night. So I used to make them coffee and snacks to eat, sometimes dinner even. Back those day I was naïve, I wanted to stuff Damien's stomach with my food as I used to think it could be a way to make him fall for me. I shook my head at my stupid old self.
I know I would feel bad so I decided to bake them some cookies with coffee. I could never say no if someone ask me to make them food. Cooking is my passion. Food is life. I fixed my hair and went out to the kitchen. Dad and Damien sitting with their laptop, probably discussing some business. I felt bad for them they have to work so hard. Well a good coffee for these hard working men.
As I prepared coffee, i thought about what could have happened if Damien didn't step in last night. Raped? by an ugly druggie. For sure he is a jerkface but he does have a heart that beats, sometimes only.
"Stupid little girl, you cannot stay out of trouble, can you?" He drawled out, He stepped towards me as I backed away. My back hit the tree and I was trapped in his arms. My eyes soon filled with tears as I asked out of no where, "Why did you reject me?" I let tears out.

Realising it makes me look like a desperate hoe, "I wanted to just tell you that it was a small crush which faded away just like all other crushes I had." I continued. His jaw clenched as his eyes darkens.
"You were indeed faking it." My heart tightens with the feeling of hurt. Believe whatever you want, Damien.
No one spoke for a minute or two, "I'll drop you off." He said walking to his car, probably thinking I'll follow. When he realized I wasn't, he stopped and turned around. He took a deep breath, "Really?"
"Aurora must be waiting for me." I said in a low voice. "She is busy with Ethan."
Can he take the hint, "I don't wanna go with you."
"Then stay here and get raped for all I care." I stood there still as he got in his car and drove off. Later Aurora and Ethan came looking for me and Ethan dropped us at home.
My coincence didn't let me go with him. Maybe if he asked more nicely. I don't exactly like him anymore but I don't hate him either. He was a great business man and a model, but he just had no regards for my feelings. It's like I'm not a human to him. People even treat animals way better then how Damien treats me.
I snapped out of my thoughts. I put my Macaron inside the oven while making buttercream in a large bowl. As my macarons got ready I piped them with buttercream of three different flavours; lemon, raspberry and chocolate. It looked tasty but I don't eat such unhealthy things at this time. I took a big tray and put 2 cup of coffee; french vanilla for dad and hazelnut for Damien. With macarons and some other snacks.
They were so busy that they didn't notice my presence so I cleared my throat to grab their attention. Damien looked at my direction, his eyes looking at the tray in my hands as they sparkled with happiness. Maybe he was really starving. He loves my food, does he not? I smiled to myself.
"Thank you, princess." Dad said, his eyes still on laptop. "You can go back to sleep now."
"I'm not sleepy anymore."
Damien didn't say anything. He sat there muted, whilst taking his coffee and sipping on it as well as biting on macaron. He caught me staring at him so he turned around and set his face towards dad, completely ignoring and avoiding my existence.
"So Damien, how is Winnie doing at office?" Dad questioned.
"Settling in," His answer was short. His attitude is quiet frustrating. He didn't even say a single "thank you" for waking up at this time to bake cookies and make coffee for him. Ungrateful human. But as I think about it, he never did back then too.

The Kiss of Two Moons
The last year is upon us. The world is ending, but you already knew that; everyone does. Spring has come, and the flowers have bloomed here in this small town with no name. Thousands of different colours now paint the field that had been coloured by frost alone just yesterday. The townsfolk have gathered by the field to celebrate the beginning of the last spring with so many smiling faces. Tears too. I can’t help but wonder whether the flowers will bloom again before the sky falls upon us. Others must be thinking the same. There are moments when the smiles fade and their eyes glaze over as they realize just how near to the end we are. They forget it again in moments. They make themselves forget. The children aren’t like that, though. They don’t seem to understand, or they’ve come to accept it in a way that their parents just can’t manage to. This one boy actually asked me why I was sad. I had to wonder whether he was actually aware that the world is ending, but it seemed wrong to mention it. I ended up just telling him that I was waiting for someone, and he scampered off, wearing a silly smile. I can’t help but feel jealous of him. The beginning of next spring; the day that the world ends. It seems so far away, yet so close. Wherever you are now, I have to ask, how are you spending your last spring? Did you get to see the flowers bloom? Did you smile? Did you cry?

This reborn personal trainer is going to whip the royal army into shape!
Olympics Sports Trainer, Meg Thompson, had never even heard of an otome game, so when she died in Japan during the Tokyo Games and was reincarnated into one in error as the minor character, Briar Bell, she might have unintentionally messed just about everything up for the true heroine...Whether it was her befriending villainesses, or hanging out with capture targets, from the moment she was born she was setting the plot careening off course. (although if you ask her, the original storyline was stupid and hopeless to begin with #SorryNotSorry)The Heroine was supposed to seduce this medieval-esque kingdom's most eligible bachelors in order to use the power of their love to stop the encroaching demon army from destroying humanity with her heart magic. Playing the role of 'heroine' was another reincarnated woman named Sakura, a hardcore Japanese otaku who had previously been hit by a truck in a tale as old as time.Whether it is the fault of Sakura's social ineptness (as Briar would claim) or from her own interventions, humanity is now heading towards total decimation. Seems like she'll have to brush off her coaching skills and get this royal army into fighting form.

Death's Daughter | Supernatural, D.W.
My life is normal, or at least relative to it. Really, how normal does life get, being the offspring of the most murderous of beings, the undertaker himself? Being Death's daughter isn't easy. Existence itself is a trying subject; even more trivial when it's based around taking the lives of (mostly) innocent people. The word mostly is an asterisk for people like Sam and Dean Winchester. My father informed me of them at a young age after a reaping that had obviously gone sideways. "If you have the chance," he instructed me, "drag those obnoxious cock roaches down to Hell, and leave them there."Then, one day, two flannel-clad idiots and their angel on a leash wander into my jurisdiction of the veil. My life has never been the same; my life has never been the preconceived notion of 'normal' that it once was.Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or plot lines from Supernatural.
