Royal Alpha Alexander (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 8

~~Skylar's Pov~~
(Aka Lucy)

As I entered the kitchen, eyes wider than soccer ball trailed on me. I grinned at the young woman and took the utensils needed for me to make some cakes. For some reason I craved for something sweet. Once settled down with the ingredients, someone tapped my shoulder. I turned to the person with arched eyebrows.

"Miss, its probably better for me to cook for you. Just tell me what you want for me to prepare for you?" I smiled slightly as my hand made it's way to her shoulder while I gently said, "No worries. I can manage."

"But Lord will be angry if he learn about this." It's funny how they always called him lord as if he was God itself. But on the other hand he did seemed like one, with that manipulative beauty of his.

"If he ever find out about that I'll make sure to take full responsibility. Meanwhile it will stay our little secret." I was not sure if it still was a secret because Jaxon already knew about it. Well whatever, I was hungry. And food is always a necessity of life.

"As you say miss.."

She was about to leave but I quickly spoke, " My name is Lucy by the way." I leaned my hand forward for her to grasp. She quickly wiped her hand with her pink apron as she replied timidly, "Mine is Diana. Nice to meet you Miss Lucy."

With that said she told me that she had to clean dining table. I found myself alone.

I mixed the ingredients effortlessly while humming to the same melody that my mom used to sing to me. Whenever I sing I felt more close to her and her warmth... Her motherly warmth that I missed so much.

At the thought of that I felt a drop of tear rolling down my slightly pink cheek. Why do I always get the feeling that she was alive. Even then, felt that she was still breathing when the bitter truth said that she was not.

Suddenly I saw the familiar curls peeking through the door. "You can come in Jaxon." Knowing that he was discovered, he gave up his hiding place and joined me.

"Woah!" he exclaimed as he took in his surrounding. He was so mesmerised that it made me chuckled; he looked cute. "Is it your first time in a kitchen." I asked.

He watched me wide eyes as he stuttered quickly, "Yes.... No i mean no!" He looked embarrassed making him one zillion times cuter. "No.." He finally gave up.

"Aww you're so cute." I squeezed his cheeks upon seeing his adorable self. He should be more like this. "Hey stop! I'm not cute. I'm not a girl." He frowned.

Way to ruin the mood, big guy.

"So tell me big guy. Want to try something new today?" I looked at him expectantly while showcasing him the bowl consisting of the mixture.

"What! No! I'm not going to do what you're thinking right now." He uttered with pure disgust.

"Seriously, what's wrong with cooking." I pouted and crossed my arms like a 5 years old child. "Need I to remind you that cooking is not for royals. Forget about cooking, I'm not even supposed to enter he kitchen."

"Then why did you come?" I was really curious. I thought he didn't like me. "I..I'm here be.. Hey! No one has the right to question me." It seemed like he was trying to avoid the question but I wasn't going to let this go like that.
