Hidden Flame: Bound to the Triplet Dragon Kings

**Avery**

After my non-date with Clint, I slept fairly well. I dreamed but I don’t remember them. I start my morning routine of

showering and getting dressed. I opt for a casual knit dress and my comfortable sneakers. I make my way to the kitchen

and the Trio is standing there waiting.

“We waited for you,” Clint says.

I am not surprised after yesterday. These guys might be gods on the football field but they are rabble in the kitchen. I

decided to teach them how to make omelets. They are fairly simple and the guys can stuff them with whatever

ingredients they want. While I am doing the eggs, I have them chopping their fixings. I grab spinach for mine and toss it

to Clint to wash and chop. I have them crowd around me so that I can show them how to add the egg and when it is

ready for the ingredients and to be flipped. They watch me as if I were an expert surgeon.

Their positive attention was nice even if I felt a bit uncomfortable under their gazes. Cooking is one of my escapes and I

am very good at it. Maybe I will study culinary science when I go to college. After breakfast, we left for school. I started

walking until a black Jaguar pulled up beside me.

“Get in,” Cassius ordered as he pushed open the passenger door.

I roll my eyes because I doubt that the Hags will try something again. They showed me their claws and I lived. What are

they going to do now, call me names? It is not like I have not been called vile things before. I just hope that none of them

are the Trio’s mates because I would demand that I be relieved of my service. I would die before I serve them!

“If you do not get in, I will come and put you in,” Cassius says as I catch the red flakes in his tepid blue eyes.
