" Harder".
"Goddess, I'm trying".
" You should pump your fistt into it harder then let your fingers do the work".
" You know I'm not gonna get anything done with you breathing on my neck like that" I sent Drex a side eye, making sure to express all my frustrations in it. I love cooking, I really do but sometimes I just want to strangle Drex with the dough I'm kneading. I never tried cooking at the moonbeam pack — Alpha wouldn't let me... probably thinking I'd be tempted to poison the whole pack.
Not that it never crossed my mind.
But I had always love the idea of cooking and baking. I romantize it on my mind, thinking it'll be a walk over but goddess, it really isn't . And having a professional like Drex as teacher is really what made it harder — he's never satisfied. I think he secretly enjoys seeing me tormented.
" It looks just like the one you knead yesterday. How come you're saying mine isnt stretchy yet?". To emphasize my point, I dragged the dough before giving him a look that says "See? Stretchy".
He rolled his eyes before grabbing my wrist " See this". He raised my hands up to my eye level and I huffed " The dough is still sticking to your hands. If truly it's ready, it'll stop sticking". " Just imagine the dough to be the person you hate the most and then bash it like you're bashing his head.
Oh, that's easy. I stared at the dough, or Alpha Bastian's head, and cracked my fingers , smiling wickedly. " Oh, you're so dead".
I bash into the dough with a strength I didn't know I had in me. " You crazy... bastard...psycho... ,
" —"insanely handsome...but murderous...son of a bastard... Property?...Uh?". I delivered each word with a blow on Alpha Kaelith's head.
Wait...I paused, mid air. When did the head change into Alpha Kaelith's own?.
" Wow!! I know I'm always teasing you but you didn't have to go that far".
" Uh?". The look Drex was sending me made me a bit confused. He looked at me like ive suddenly grown two head and he actually took few steps away from me.
" You said insanely handsome. I'm pretty sure you were referring to me".
I was still confused until I finally got what he meant "Wow, Drex. At the rate your ego keep increasing— I think you might need a doctor soon". I gave him a seemingly unamused look.
" Ego?". He faked hurt, dramatically putting his hand on his chest " More like fact. You're really lucky having a chef that is not only skilled but super handsome as your friend. I am the master of Culinary "...
Here we go again...

I knocked twice on the intimidating door ,that leads to a more intimidating person ,before turning the knob open. I was suddenly swallowed by darkness when I stepped into the room and it took sometimes to realize that the study light was off and that I wasn't the one that went blind.
I set the food troller aside, blindly looking for the switch with my hands but the voice that came from the dark, startled me.
" Leave the light off".
I thought he wasn't in the room since the light is turned off but guess the Shadowmoon Alpha really do like being in the dark. This time and that time in the kitchen, what does he think he is...a vampire?
I stood at first, clueless on what to do and how to move around. I gripped one of my hand on the trolley while putting the other forward so as to feel the direction of where I'm going.
That didn't work though, as my leg hit what I assumed to be — a shelf? Oh, goddess!
" Left". He voice commanded
"Uh". My brain felt all mushy from hearing his voice and it took a while to realize what he meant...., "Oh". I stepped to the left.
"Take eight steps to the front and wheel the troller aside to the right".
I did as he instructed and took 8 steps forward. It's a wonder how I was able to clear my clogged head and listen to him but then , it's not too hard when his voice commands attention naturally.
After putting the trolley where he directed , I took 8 steps backwards and did the reverse of what he said earlier.
I know he has werewolf gene and all but really, it felt like he was mocking me.
I waited for him to dismiss him but no words came from him — instead, an eerily silence filled the air. I fidget on my feet, praying that he'll just let me go but—
" Sit". He broke the silence but his words...word, made me confused
Sit? As in SIT?
