Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 7

Theon and Zayne were both touched, but they still stuck to the rules. However, Nyx insisted they join her for the meal, and after a brief exchange of glances, they gave in and sat down, eating with a little more restraint than usual.

The ingredients on the planet were from specialized Resource Planets. Those planets were free of industrial pollution, where food was naturally grown. These ingredients were not only healthier than anything Nyx had eaten back on Earth, but the flavors were way better.

The potatoes were savory, the tomatoes were juicy, and the asparagus was crisp with a refreshing aroma.

The ribs had been grilled until their surface was crispy. Wrapping itself around the rich potato, the meat tasted even more indulgent. The beef brisket practically melted in their mouths, soaking up all the tomato goodness, leaving them craving

more.

Both males were completely stunned by the “home–cooked” meal Nyx had described. They’d expected the dishes to be decent, but not this astonishing!

Growing up on nutrient drinks, with the occasional visit to high–end restaurants, they thought they knew what “good food” tasted like. But after trying this, they realized just how badly they’d been wasting ingredients all along.

Sitting in front of Nyx, the two of them were doing their best to maintain some level of decorum, but their focus was entirely on the food.

For Nyx, having someone to share the meal with made her appetite a bit better than usual, though she still ate less than most would.

She finished first, excused herself, and got up from the table. The moment her footsteps left, the atmosphere shifted. Theon wasted no time to grab the last three pieces of ribs off the plate and add another piece of potato to his own plate. Zayne quickly scooped up the last of the tomato beef stew, leaving only a sad little pool of broth and two lonely chunks of beef, along with some shredded tomatoes.

It wasn’t that the fried asparagus wasn’t good–it just wasn’t their thing. Both of them were carnivores type at heart, and even though they were in human form, their dietary preferences still leaned heavily toward meat.

Still, they didn’t completely ignore the veggies. They divided the asparagus evenly between them and polished it off.

Once the plates were cleared, Theon arranged his portion artfully, snapped a few pictures with his Intelligent Brain, and sent them off to Felix.

Theon: [Nyx cooked. They are amazing.]

Felix was stunned when the message came through. His rebellious nephew, who barely ever bothered to contact him, had not only rejected his calls twice today but was now sending him a message out of the blue.

Felix clicked open the message, and as he had expected, it was about Nyx.
