BLOODY CRAVINGS - CHAPTER 31&32
•~★★★~•
Kelly was laying on her stomach with her pillow on her face, as she kept on soaking it with tears.
Suddenly, her phone buzzed next to her.
Without raising her face, she picked the phone and turned her face to the screen.
It was Leo. And that alone made her start to sob all over again.
She hastily sat up and looked at the screen patiently, contemplating on if to pick up his call or not.
The door flung open and her thumb quickly clicked on the cut button without her notice.
She looked up and found Kitten walk into the room.
” Kelly. Did Dad tell you that he was supposed to be here in Cape Tower?” She asked.
” No?. Dad is here??”She sniffed out her tears.
” With mom and a funny looking guy” She said and kelly eyes got wide.
” I’m coming after you!” She said as she rushed down the bed. They both left the hostel together and closed up the door.
Kelly phone was still out on the bed and it kept on buzzing aimlessly.
**
Lucas was leaning on the rail naturally, watching the scene happening at the ground floor.
He seemed relax from where he was, enjoying the family drama he didn’t pay to see.
Mrs CeCe looked up from her phone screen to meet her two daughters approaching them.
Kelly was the one with a smile and kitten eyes was grazing on the new guy.
‘ Looking at this guy’s nose, the only thing I think of is Mr bean cartoon series’ Her subconscious thought.
” Kelly, Kitten!” Mrs CeCe smiled, widening her arms out to their reach.
Kelly quickly took in the hug while kitten remained in her spot, eyeing the other guy.
” Mommy” Kelly smiled and her mom held her cheeks in both palm.
” Kelly. Are you okay?. Your eyes seems bigger and redder than normal?” Mrs CeCe asked.
Kelly forced a smile as she adjusted her fleek hair into the side of her ear.
” I’m very fine, mom. What about you?” She asked.
” Healthy as always, my baby girl. You are gaining more weight than I expected. Look at your cheeks.” Mrs CeCe smiled warmly and Kelly lowered her face giggling.
” Kitten!” Mr CeCe called and she snapped her gaze at him.
” Yes? Dad?”
” So you couldn’t welcome us after the long trip, huh?. Did you suddenly loose your manners?”
Kitten chuckled and started walking up to him with her two legs apart playfully. She stopped and took his hands, shaking him.
” I’m surprised the airplane didn’t crash with you in it” She smiled and her dad brow rose up.
” What do you mean by that?” He scoffed.
” Haha, was only pulling your legs daddy” She chuckled and that got him crazily upset.
He tried to leave his spot and aim his arm at her but Kelly immediately hugged him from behind.
” Welcome dad. I’ve missed you so so much!!” She smiled and his anger subsided instantly after her warm contact.
He turned to Kitten and glared at her.
” I knew you’d never change. Something you inherited from your mother” He scoffed with hint of h@?? in his voice.
” Don’t let us start with that or else you might end up with a bandage leg like last time!” Mrs Cece spat.
He sighed with a little nod of his head.
” However, you might be wondering who this guy is?” Her dad gestured at the new guy and the girls both took turns to look at him.
He’s leaning on his car while going through his phone like he wasn’t part of the scene.
” I don’t want to know who he is but why is he here?” Kitten spat, folding her hands under her B-__-bs.
” This is Miles ?ï?kson. The only son to one of the founder of MWA fashion. A member of the ?ï?kson family” Mrs CeCe introduced.
” More like Mr ?ï?k son” Kitten laughed and Kelly bit her lips to avoid laughing as well.
” Ahem!, Kitten!” Her mom cautioned her and kitten bit her lower lips to hold it in.
” He is from a wealthy and respected family, you should know how to control your tongue in his presence. And since we have two grown up girls who is expected to finish college soon, we’ll be getting one of you betrothed to him” She continued.
Kitten immediately looked at her.
” Which girls are you talking about?” She asked.
” My daughters, of course!”
” Kelly, should we tell them?” She asked and Kelly turned to look at her.
” Huh?. Tell them what?”
Kitten grabbed her sister’s hand and looked back at her parent.
” Mom, Dad. These two girls you see here, have their own man by their side. Yes, we have people we like already. So Mr ?ï?k son should take his shameless ?ï?k away from here!.” She said.
Kelly took her hands off her sister’s as her face fell horribly.
” I don’t have any man” She said and her lips formed a pout.
” What do you mean?. What of Leo?” Kitten asked calmly but instead, she bit her lower lips, hiding her pain.
A car drove into the surrounding in full speed and it caught everyone attention.
Leo stooped out of the car and he forgot to close the door before walking towards them quickly.
He halted in his steps when he saw the situation of the scenery he met. Kelly saw him and she quickly lowered her gaze to avoid staring at his face.
Mrs CeCe turned to Miles.
” Please Miles. Come make your choice on my daughters” She said and he finally leaned away from his car.
He stared at kitten and she gave him the bombastic side eye. That alone sent a signal into his system.
” I’ll take the one who was earlier crying” He said and Leo eyes widened.
” Kelly. Hope you’re aware?. He chose you” Mrs CeCe said and Kelly raised her chin.
” Me?.”
” What??” Kitten yelled.
” That’s enough. Give me the papers, Miles.” She said and Miles stretched it out to her.
” This is the contract papers. You’ll fill this blanks, Kelly dear” Her mom smiled as she gave it to her.
Kitten snatched the paper from her instead and everyone watched her, wondering if she wanted to fill it herself.
” This is so stupid!. I’ve never been this disappointed. You guys shouldn’t ever pick a soul mate for my sister. Stop using her inferiority to get advantage of her. She deserves to fall in love the right way!” She yelled and tore the paper in half.
👥 Gasp!
She stepped forward and folded it into Miles small mouth hole.
” There!” She spat and pinched his mouth close.
” Holy!” Her mom gasped and her dad jaw dropped at the crazy sight.
” Go eat your betrothal right!. ?ï?k.less set of people!” She spat and turned around, part of her hair strand getting into his eyes.
He fell on his butt and choked from the paper in his mouth.
Lucas leaned away from the rail and he pocketed his hands proudly.
” Good girl” He raised his chin, smiling to himself.
Miles helped himself up and stepped back a bit before turning to her parent.
” My flight was supposed to be tomorrow. But I’ll be taking my private plane out of Cape Tower this afternoon. I’m done here!, with your daughters and with both of you!” He scoffed and started to walk away quickly.
” I hope you have a private jet to fly home your tears with you too!” Kitten laughed, not noticing the range in her parents face.
In less than a minute, he had drove out of the surrounding immediately.
” Kitten” Mr CeCe walked up to her. He was wearing a very serious dead pan expression on his face.
” Just so you know, I already made a deal with your mom before coming down here. And that was- if you misbehaved in this betrothal arrangement, you’ll have to work and pay your own school fees for the rest of the semester.”
” What!!” She screamed.
” I think that’s the best way to punish you since you’ve refused to change. Do you know the kind of insult you just committed in front of Miles, by insulting him and tearing his marriage contract. After flying all the way down here only to receive such!. He could even get you arrested!” Her dad yelled with pain in his voice.
” But dad..”
” Shut your trap young lady!. Your school fees this semester will be completed by you and that’s alot of money. I don’t know how you want to get that done, but it will be none of my business!” He said and started to walk away quickly.
” Darling?” Mrs CeCe called out to him.
” If you want to start schooling in D.D, remain there with the girls” Mr CeCe spat and got into the car quickly.
Mrs CeCe turned to give Kitten a sharp glare.
” You’d better look for an after school job before it’s get too late” She said before turning around and leaving them there.
Kitten looked down at her feet sadly and Kelly walked up to her.
” Hey. Don’t feel bad sis. I’ll join hands in funds raising too” She said.
” Just forget about it. Nothing counts” She said and turned away, walking back into the hostel.
Leo quickly walked towards Kelly.
” Kelly” He called and she turned around to face him. Her gut changed immediately their eyes met.
” What are you doing here?!” She snapped.
” I..I…I’m clueless, Kelly. I..I..don’t even know why you’re upset. You left without my info, I tried calling but you didn’t pick. I’m as worried as a fool wandering about” He said and she folded her hands.
” Let’s end it Leo. I don’t want to date you anymore and I mean it!” She said briskly.
” Wait…Really?” His heart skipped.
” Yes, i think it’s better being myself now. I’m tired of crying, thinking you’d change one day when I know you wouldn’t” She said.
” I don’t understand. B..but I didn’t do anything wrong. I’ve not even been with any girl except you” He said.
” Really?. So your cooks are telling a lie?. You still f-__-k around and you expect me to be happy?” She scoffed and turned her backs leaving quickly.
Leo couldn’t believe this. His own cooks lied against him and not just to anyone, but his oan girlfriend.
He bit his lips hardly, imagining what to do to the them as soon as he returns back to the mansion.
He quickly went to her and pulled her quickly, making her rest against his chest.
” Little Please…” His arms wrapped around her tightly, not wanting to let go. ” If you trust me, then you’ll know it’s all a lie. Please…believe me.”

*MILES CAR*
Miles took up his phone and quickly raised it close to his ear.
” Karen?” He called.
” Yes, boss” She said and a sigh left his lip.
” Good. All I wanted to hear, you did a great job by staying in the hostel without coming out.”
” You told me not to” She said.
” It was for some reasons, Karen. And whereas, I saw the guy”
” Who?. Lucas?”
” Yes. You should be quick in this mission, we have no time cos we need him ASAP”
” Yes boss”
” And Kitten’s parent will be lounging in Farris hotel, one of the hotels in Cape Tower for three days. You should keep your identity covered.” He said and she got mute for some seconds.
” Are you listening to me??. I said you should avoid crossing path with kitten’s parent”
” Yes, Boss” She quickly said.
” Good. Its for your own safety, Karen. Who knows what might happen to you if they saw you. I’ll Talk to you later” He said and cut the call quickly.
***
NEXT DAY *BIGGS RESTAURANT*
Kitten raised her phone as she took a picture of the new restaurant that opened down the street.
” This might be a good place to start, right?” She smiled, turning to look at Lucas.
He paraded his eyes at the restaurant before turning to face her.
” I think so. You should probably go ask for enquiries. Like how much they pay?” He said.
She bit her lips as clutched hold of her phone. she could vividly remembered her experience on finding a job when she was a teen.
” Last time, I almost poured hot tea on my boss head when he tried to fire me. I’m scared of working in a restaurant” She said.
Lucas grinned as he looked at her.
” I know you can do this. Maybe this time, you shouldn’t go for a tea but for a mop” He said and she palmed her lips laughing.
” Did I tell you my parents came yesterday?” She asked.
” I knew myself. And I like your reaction to them” He said and she bit her lips, moving her body sideways.
” But I’m so disappointed. You couldn’t even come down so my parent could see you” She pouted.
He palmed her cheeks and smiled.
” I want to be a little bit familiar with your parent first before I meet them. I’m sure they won’t be quite happy to see me”
” They dare not!” She spat and he throated a chuckle.
They were about to walk in when a car drove past them, throwing rain splash at them.
” Who’s that drunkard?” She spat as they both turned around.
Frankie came down the car and Lucas eyes thinned with h@?? immediately.
” Sup” He smiled, pocketing his thumb as he walked up to them.
” Come Lucas. Let’s go in” She grabbed his arm but Lucas didn’t move from his spot.
” Why do I feel like you’re following us around?” Lucas asked, keeping his deadly facial expression.
” Cos I am” He said with a smirk on his face.
A middle aged woman with a one year old boy stopped in front of them.
” Hello guys. Please, is this the newly opened restaurant?” She asked.
” Yea, Yea” The trio replied, nodding at once.
” Oh geez. I hope I’m not late?. The interview was supposed to take off at nine” She asked.
” Not at all. I also came for a job interview too” Kitten said.
” Oh really?. I think we should go in together”
” Yea, sure” Kitten replied.
” But my son, he can’t possibly go with us. I was rushing to come over here so I couldn’t put him in a day care center” She said.
Kitten sighed as she thought of what to do. There was no day care center around and they were both running out of time.
” Don’t worry, this two guys will help us” Kitten said and picked the baby from her.
” What?” Lucas brows raised.
” Are you kidding me?!” Frankie almost yelled.
Kitten gave Lucas the baby and handed his backpack and snacks to frankie.
” Here. Hold the child for her. We wouldn’t last an hour in the interview room. I promise” Kitten said.
” But…”
” Thank you so much!. Two handsome, gorgeous greek god!. Mua!!” The woman kissed the air and kitten followed her into the restaurant quickly.
Lucas turned to face the little kid in his arms.
” Boo!” He scared him and the kid started to sob loudly.
” Geez. Why would you scare him like that!.That’s enough to scare me too!” Frankie yelled.
” I wasn’t expecting the kid to cry so loud!. I can’t even hear my own voice!” Lucas snapped back at him.
Frankie sighed and searched his backpack. He found milk and that brought some sort of hope to them.
He immediately plumped the milk bottle into his mouth and he succumbed to it quickly.
” Geez. This is so ridiculous” Frankie spat.
” It’s would be more ridiculous if he poops” Lucas said and something moved under his arm.
” Did he just…”
” f_ck it!. I shouldn’t have said anything!” Lucas spat.
” We should probably call 911. This is real torture!” Frankie cried out.
***
*LEO’S BEDROOM*
Kelly was laying on the king sized bed of Leo room, eating a popcorn.
She sat up as soon as the door opened. The two maids walked in with their heads bowed, their were scars on their skin.
Leo finally walked in.
” This were the two maids who talked those trash about me, isn’t it?” Leo asked.
Kelly climbed down the bed and walked till she got to them. She raised their chin to look at their faces and a smirk followed.
” Yea. its the two fools” She spat.
” What do you wish to do them?”
” Just Sack them, Leo. And let me be your personal cook from now on” She said and Leo smiled.
” Sure babe. But your hands are still too fragile and little” He said, rubbing her little fingers.
” No. I don’t want any girl to cook for you. I want mine to be special, Just for you” She said with determination in her eyes. He smiled, and kissed her forehead.
” My kitchen is yours.” He said. He turned to the other two.
” Drop your apron by the sink, wash them and then leave the mansion barefooted”
” Yes, boss” They nodded and walked out quickly with tears on their cheeks.
Leo quickly hugged Kelly to himself, palming her backside possessively.
” I love you, okay. I’d never ever cheat on you. That’s a promise for sure” He said and she smiled.
” Can..Um…Can you__” She bit her lips, stopping herself from talking further.
” Can I..? What do you want, I’d do anything for you” He said. She pointed at her lips and he chuckled bluntly, grasping what she meant.
” Are you seriously shy to ask for a kiss?” He chuckled.
” I don’t want to look like a bad girl” She said and that caused a laugh to escape his lip.
” Let’s try somewhere different!” He said and scooped her up quickly.
He placed her on the bed and slowly separated her legs. Her thighs were smooth and chubby, just how he liked it.
” W..what do you want to do?” Kelly whispered as her chest rammed harder.
” Shh. And enjoy it” He said and pulled down her P@?tî??. He stared at her pink smooth flower and his ?ï?k suddenly stood in arousal.
His senses started to run crazy and he immediately sulked the lips of her ????.
Her hand grabbed the duvet.
” Ou!. Leo!!”
***
*INTERVIEW ROOM*
Kitten stared at the clock timelessly as the chef took records of her interview.
She turned to her once again and kitten had began to yawn.
” Any past history as a waitress?” The lady asked.
” Yes ma’am” She replied.
” And for how long did you work there?”
” Just three hours ma’am” She replied.
The lady sat up quickly, looking very concerned.
” What do you mean three hours?. I’m not talking about the working hour, I mean, the number of days you__
” Just three hours” She said. ” I worked for three hours and got fired later on”
” Why?”
” Are you giving me this job or not?” She asked and the lady sighed, crossing her fingers.
” Fine. This is a new restaurant and we don’t tolerate any improper attitude here, You must also be punctual and regular at work. Am I clear?” She asked.
” Yes, Ma’am” She nodded.
” Good. You got the job. Come here at 8am tomorrow to fully resume”
” I’m sorry. I can’t come here at that time. I’ll be here at 5pm”
” Who’s the boss, me or you?. Why would you give time limit to yourself, huh?!” She spat
” I’m always at college from 9am to 4pm!. How do you expect me to leave school just to come work here!” She yelled.
” You are already showing some improper attitude and you haven’t even started working yet!” She spat.
” What improper attitude are you talking about. $h|t!, It’s not like this is the only restaurant in Cape Tower!”
” Then leave. Infact, You are fired!” She spat.
Kitten stood up and picked her bag.
” It’s your restaurant that will be on fire!” She scoffed and started walking out quickly.
She got out and met the middle aged woman by the door.
” You didn’t get the job as well?”The woman asked.
” Yea. The chef is just a bunch of slot” She spat and pushed the glass door open.
She got outside and was expecting to see the guys and the baby, but with she saw made her jaw drop instantly.
Lucas and frankie had dozed off on each others shoulder on the subway chair and the baby had already crawled to the roadside.
Kitten eyes widened in alert but the woman had sprang forward immediately.
” My baby!”
