Beauties and the Beasts

(Ch. 11) Dinner

Soon it was evening and we got our guest at the door, Everything was prepared wether it was the food or the newly crafted wooden bowls and chopsticks.

Harvey brought five dead chickens or short birds with him, Qingqing's face brightened after seeing the chickens because suddenly the thought that she could make something even more delicious with them struck her.

Looking at Bai's reaction Harvey blushed, Me and Sam were standing there, looking at them like audiences, only if we had some popcorns.

Sam slowly whispered in my ear, "Kyra, if you want then I can bring short birds too".

I shrugged my shoulders as I replied, "I'll leave that upto you" because it's not like I'm hating the meat-meals after all I was able to eat chickens daily in my last life but eating porks and beef daily was a luxury so why would I choose some chickens over high-priced meats.

Oh please~ I'm just thinking practically!.... Okay, fine, I'm being selfish, Happy?

I went toward the two persons who were having a whole lot awkward environment around them. I carefully pulled Bai to one side as I asked Harvey to come inside politely,

yeah.. Bai didn't even ask him to come inside, maybe because it was Sam's house? Who knows?

Harvey came inside, Sam took the chickens when Bai asked him if he could clean them because she wanted to add them to the dinner too, Sam easily agreed and went outside to clean them while Harvey got seated at the place Bai asked him to.

For the time being Harvey looked pretty uncomfortable because I was literally digging holes into him by my blatant staring.

"Umm..Kyra, why are you staring at me?" My hesitant princess finally asked in the end with some hesitation,

I looked at him without any change in my expression and blatantly replied while still shamelessly looking at him, "You're beautiful, that's why".

And BOOM!

Qingqing got choked on her own saliva because she started coughing.

Harvey's face blew red, he became stupefied at his spot while looking at me with surprise yet confusion filled eyes as he became embarrassed.

As for Sam.... he dashed inside, hurriedly hugged me from behind and said while glaring at Harvey, "Am I not beautiful Kyra?" in a pretty childish tone.

I ended up laughing out loud, while leaning toward Sam I replied "How can that be possible? Sam is the most beautiful~"

After listening to my words Sam smiled and snuggled his head in the crook of my neck.

Harvey looked pretty shocked, he looked at public display of affection with surprise accompanied with a little bit of sourness in his chest, he sneakily looked toward Qingqing to find that even she was looking at Kyra with wide eyes, with a blush over her face.

I patted Sam on his head and said, "Sam~ I'm hungry, are you done with cleaning the chicken ?"

Sam parted and went outside hurriedly, Harvey was still in daze but he still mustered up his courage and asked, "Have you accepted Sam as your mate?"

I looked at him and nodded, Harvey was surprised but there was still nothing he could ask because he knew that Kyra didn't like him even a bit and it was a big thing that for the first time she had replied to any of his questions normally, so taking another chance he still asked, "Chicken...what do you mean by that?" just to lighten up the environment.

"Those birds that you brought, from where we are, we call them chickens"
I replied nonchalantly while putting my bright red open hairs into a ponytail after inhaling the fragrant broth.
