“What’s that?” Dechen pointed to the pink cotton candy a pup passing by Dayo and Dechen ate.

“What do you mean?” Dayo chuckled, looking at Dechen strangely.

“That fluffy stuff that pup was eating.” Dechen looked confused, watching as the pup’s eyes lit up when he devoured the cotton candy.

“It’s cotton candy, Dechen.” Dayo laughed. Dechen, however, was still confused.

“What?” Dechen tilted her head.

“Cotton candy.” Dayo repeated, noticing Dechen’s confused expression. “Don't tell me you don’t know what cotton candy is, ododo mi?”

Dechen shook her head. “I’ve never tried it before. Is it good?”

“Okay, ododo mi. What sweets have you tried?” Dayo questioned.

Dechen thought about it. “Never been much of a sweets fan… so maybe just chocolate cake.”

“That's it?” Dayo was shocked.

“Yep. Why. Is there more?” Dechen asked sincerely.

“We need to find you a bakery... and fast!” Dayo grabbed her hand, pulling her along the compound till they reached the kitchen to see Malakai and Vanessa partaking in a rather heated makeout session.

“Ahem.” Dayo coughed.

“What do you want?!” Vanessa growled deeply.

“I just wanted to ask Malakai if we can try some of his sweets. Dechen’s never had any sweets before, but if this is a bad time we can come back.” Dayo smirked slyly.

Malakai chuckled and got off Vanessa. “No…” Vanessa pouted, crossing her arms over her chest.

“Vanessa, darling,” he kissed her nose, “we can play later. This won’t take long.”

“I wanna play now~” She fiddled with the buttons on his shirt. “They don’t mind. I bet Dayo and Dechen would love a little show.” She winked slyly at the two. “Don't cha?”

“U-Um… n-no tha-thank you.” Dechen stammered, her cheeks staining red.

“It’ll only take a few moments.” Malakai assured her.

“You’ve been in a Fleshie Town so much working on those pastieries that you forgot the best dish you’ve ever tasted has been right in front of you…” Vanessa grumbled.

“Don’t be like that.” Malakai stroked her hair, brushing strands of her curly black hair back. “Yes, you are the best dish I’ve ever tasted, but I haven’t forgotten about you.”

Vanessa smiled softly. “Hurry back.” She whispered, sending Malakai to deal with the two wolves standing patiently in the doorway.

“So. You said you never had sweets before, Dechen?” Malakai questioned, walking towards the fridge.

“The only sweet I had was chocolate cake. My mom used to make it for me…” Dechen’s eyes saddened slightly. Not enough for Malakai and Vanessa to notice, but Dayo sure did.
