Chapter 59: Sticking around for Dessert?

Ethan pulled out Seo-In's chair for her, whilst Jaxson pulled out Mia's.

Ethan took his seat directly opposite Mia and she absolutely hated it. While Klaus sat opposite Seo-In.

Next to Ethan sat Sasha with her great double Ds out on display whilst Jaxson sat next to Kavyaa to keep her at ease.

Sasha and Kavyaa kept shooting evil stares at one another, whilst Klaus played a quick game of candy crush, to avoid obvious jealousy between them.

Seo-In didn't dare look at Sasha for fear that she'd grab her jaw out of the blue again.

The chef then served them dinner, and Seo-In was already drooling at the sight.

"I hope you like Italian, Seo-In?" Ethan said breaking the awkward silence at the table.

"Yes, that's fine." Seo-In smiled in delight, as the chef served them.

"How about you Mia?" Ethan asked trying to get his beloved's attention.

"Looks edible enough." She said rather coldly, causing Ethan to smirk shortly at her. Sasha rolled her eyes at her reply, as the table grew awkwardly silent once more.

Laughing nervously, Seo-In broke the awkward silence at the dining table.

"She means it looks tasty, right Mia?" Seo-In nudged her but Kavyaa simply kept her eyes on the food.

Kavyaa made it her mission to eat quickly so she could get out of his sight. She was deeply troubled by her guardian's behaviour with her the other night. There was no way in hell she'd be sticking around this place if he did that to her again.

{R} Well at least she's talking to us again?

Roman Ethan's inner wolf spirit chimed in his head.

{E} But she's not looking at us.

Sasha scoffed.

"Edible, are you kidding me? We have the top chefs in the world cooking our meals, you should be a little grateful you ungrat -"

The tone of Ethan's voice was calm and laced with a warning.

{R} B!tch if you don't shimmer down that cold tone of yours, I'll put you on a leash!

{E} Roman, not a leash, she'll be locked in the cellar, if she can't handle her wolf.

Sasha seemed to catch her last warning and she looked towards Seo-In's quite shocked face, at her cold angry reply towards Mia.

Clearly these two didn't get along.

"Please don't mind her, Sasha has a tendency to speak her mind." Klaus said towards Seo-In, whilst helping himself to a bowl of saucy pasta. He succeeded in distracting her attention away from the she-wolf.

Seo-In smiled as she helped herself after him and soon, everyone started to dig in.

"Hmm, this is so good!" Seo-In said taking a mouthful of the pasta, whilst Kavya helped herself to some coleslaw and some garlic bread.

"Thankyou I'm glad you like it. So how is school, have you guys figured out what you'll do in college?" Ethan asked swirling his pasta in perfection on his spoon, in an elegant manner.

"Oh? Umm well I'm hoping to be an children's illustrator someday or even a comic artist." Seo-In said.

K: Oh, nice she's into comics?

"How interesting Seo-In, have you made any so far?" Jaxson asked out of interest.

Seo-In blushed towards Jaxson and begore she could reply a cold hearted she-wolf beat her too it.

"That's a low earning job." Sasha scoffed.

K: Here we go.

J: Sasha needs to shut her trashy mouth.

Ethan looked at his feisty little mate. Fire danced in her eyes as she took a heated look back at Sasha, all whilst remaining calm and collected.

"Actually it's not, with the right story and her excellent creative skills she can earn a decent living out of it, and heck even score a deal to have her comic turned into a tv show a movie or even a game for that matter, and she's doing quite well on NetToon with her half a million watchers rooting for her work."

Seo-In and Kavyaa, automatically high-fived each other, immediately supporting each other.

"NetToon, what's that Seo-In?" Jaxson asked intrigued, since he too loved drawing when he wasn't patrolling or over looking pack duties with Klaus.

Seo-In dived in the fascinating world of creating comics online whilst Sasha and Kavyaa silently glared at one another.

They were itching to have a fight, due to many reasons between them, however for now they let their feud slide.

"How interesting, and what about you Mia?" Ethan asked.

Kavyaa suddenly felt something grazing her foot from underneath the table.

Oh my god?!

Both of them held eye contact whilst the others around them were eating their food or deep in conversation. Kavyaa on the other hand felt heat upon her face as Ethan stroked her leg up and down, in a slow sensual manner beneath the table.

What the hell was he doing?!

Was he flirting with her, whilst his girlfriend sat right next to him?!

Ethan gave her a short wink.

This crazy jerk was playing footsie with her?!

The sole of his footed sock moved easily over her ankle, then slowly rose up, stroking her leg.

Her cheeks caught heat, when his foot briefly touched her knee, sending a wild sensation down her spine.

She gave him a hard cold look, ordering him to stop, but Ethan ignored her and concentrated on eating his meal, whilst he played a little circle upon her ankle, loving how he made her nervous to his touch.

Kavyaa found him annoying yet a little turned on, however to compose her sudden flustered self she quickly kicked him heavily on his leg.

"Oh!" Ethan groaned in low minor pain. Kavyaa smirked to herself as he easily retracted his foot away.

It would take a lot to give him pain, but having Kavyaa respond to him, made his meal quite enjoyable.

"Haven't thought about it." She said coldly, getting back to her meal, not pay him much attention.

"Well, Mia is into Biology and plants infact she loves gardening, don't you Mia?" Seo-In chimed in since she spoke so highly of her during the course of their meal.

"Does she?" Ethan asked making Jaxson and Klaus chuckle, when they noticed their Alpha teasing her. Sasha gave them a clueless look.

S: Why are you guys laughing?

E: Because it's funny to us?

S: Why exactly is that?

K: Don't worry your pretty head about it.

J: It's just a silly little inside joke, that's all.

Sasha had no idea why his betas were laughing or her boyfriend. She easily felt left out, and not knowing what the hell the inside joke was.

"So you want to be a gardener then? Wow, what a looser." Sasha finished her meal that she barely ate. Kavyaa rolled her eyes at her and then watched her peck Ethan's cheek whilst whispering something in his ear.

"I'll be out in the woods, come find me."

{R} No thankyou.

Ethan gazed back at Kavyaa, which made her toes curl. She hated to think he'd get back at her for what he did to her. The consequences of her hitting her guardian frightened her. What would happen if she invoked the 'Master' again?

"Well look at the time Seo, it's time for homework, c'mon!" Kavyaa grabbed her friend after she completed her last bite of the meal.

"You girls don't want to stick around for dessert?" Jaxson asked, quite enjoying Seo-In company, since they shared the same hobby in common.

"Yes!"

"No!"

Seo-In was rather enjoying herself in being in Jaxson's company mostly. Ethan snapped his fingers and the chef brought out some mouth watering chocolate cake, with vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce dripping all over it decorated with strawberries on the side.

Chef cut the pieces and started distributing them on everyone's plates, then went back to the kitchen, feeling quite hot. He stood up and excused himself to check on his friend's unusual behaviour.

Even Kavyaa caught on to Maurice who was usually a very charming and delightful friendly chef, however he didn't seem to be feeling quite well tonight.

K: Maurice, you feeling ok buddy?

M: Not really, I need to get home to my wife right now, before I phase in front of these two lambs.

K: Ok, just stay calm.

M: Yes. We don't want to upset the girls.

Seo-In shot her friend a short look of confusion. What was bothering her so much and why was she acting so rudely towards her guardian, who had been nothing but a good courteous this night?

"MMMM!! Mia, how can you say no to this? This is so good." Seo-In squealed as the deliciousness hit her taste buds.

"Yes, Mia how can you not enjoy this delicious delight?" He spoke looking right towards her in a secret teasing manner.

Kavyaa sat back down reluctantly, biting her inner cheek, thanks to Ethan's insistence.

She had enough of him teasing her, and she decided that if he wasn't going to let her go back to Mark's house, she wasn't going to behave accordingly under his roof either.

"Ethan, I want to go back to Mark's place tonight."

Her guardian shot her a sharp look.

{R} Mark are you kidding me?

{E} I hate that she's thinking about him even now.

"I thought we had discussed this already Mia?"

"Whose Mark?" Seo-In whispered.

"A friend, whom kindly lent me his place to stay whilst he's away." She reminded.

"Mmm, this is delicious." Ethan said ignoring Kavyaa's request and eating his cake.

Kavyaa scoffed, stood up abruptly from her chair, and grabbed a piece of her cake and smacked it right at Ethan's face.

"Mmm. Delicious, isn't it?" She spoke with anger dripping from her tone, whilst she sarcastically mimicked his tone, making him scoff.

Gasps filled the air, as Klaus came in just in time to witness Kavyaa doing that. Seo-In's piece of cake dropped form her fork out of surprise, whilst her mouth was left open in a fat surprise. She'd never seen Mia act out like this before.

K: Bambi, what did you do!

J: Ethan, just stay cool.

He stood up from his chair and glanced hard at Kavyaa, secretly shaking his head in disbelief at how rude she was to him. He had to control Roman heavily from lowly growling out infront of her and grabbing her, and kissing her out in a hungry possessive manner, that'd shock her to her core.

While she was angry with him, during the bad moon night, she had no idea that it had caused him to get excited around her.

"Quite." He responded darkly, sending shivers down her spine.

Kavyaa nervously gulped and took off running away from the dinner table, after feeling his dangerous vibe emitting from him greatly. She'd no doubt p!ssed him off tonight.

J: Ethan?

K: Buddy just calm down, it's only cake.

Ethan then grabbed a piece of cake and smashed it angrily upon Klaus making Jaxson chuckle out and Seo-In stunned. Klaus then grabbed a piece of cake and threw it at Jaxson, making Seo-In burst out laughing the next moment.

Klaus grinned getting his vendetta easily whilst Jaxson was stunned that his best friend had smashed his handsome face with cake. Furthermore, the little lamb beside him couldn't stop laughing.

Jaxson then grabbed a piece of cake and Seo-In ceased her laughing running away from his sight before she became his next target. The betas ceased their food fight and then noticed that their Alpha was missing.

{E}: She's not going to get away with caking me like that!

{R}: Kavyaa, where did you go?
