Hell's Kitchen

Meet Chef Victor Delacroix, a culinary genius with a chilling secret! By night, he was known as "The Butcher", a ruthless serial killer and assassin wielding a blood-stained meat cleaver. His grotesque talent? He gains the abilities and attributes of whatever – or whomever – he eats. This macabre skill set made him one of the most feared figures in the criminal underworld. Fed up with his gruesome life of crime, Victor decides to vanish from the radar and start fresh. He moves to the capital and opens an exclusive restaurant called "Hell's Kitchen." His dishes are unparalleled, attracting an elite clientele: the wealthy, the corrupt, and the morally bankrupt, each harboring their own dark tastes... In Hell's Kitchen, every dish tells a story, and every meal is an experience - often literally a slice of life. Yet, his patrons are blissfully unaware of Victor’s true identity as The Butcher, concealed behind the charming facade of a master chef. As Victor tries to carve out a new existence, the ghosts of his past start to close in. Sinister patrons with dangerous appetites, old enemies seeking revenge, and the lure of his own monstrous cravings threaten to drag him back into the abyss. The line between his dual lives blurs, and each night becomes a battle to keep his sinister nature at bay. "Hell's Kitchen" is a twisted tale of redemption and temptation, where humanity and monstrosity collide. In a world where darkness is served on a silver platter, can Victor ever truly escape his blood-soaked past, or will the shadows consume him once again?

Wyvern Hunt

Victor sat in his office, poring over the VIP request that had just come in. Lord Whitmore, one of their most esteemed clients, was requesting a special dinner this weekend. He and his guests wanted to feast on Wyvern meat, a delicacy that was both rare and challenging to procure. Victor's mind immediately began to whirl with potential recipes, the complex flavors and textures he could create with such an exquisite ingredient.

But first, he needed the meat. He leaned back in his chair and called for Elise.

"Elise, I need you to contact your supplier," Victor said as soon as she entered. "We need Wyvern meat, and we need it by this weekend."

Elise nodded, her usual confidence shining through. "Consider it done. I'll reach out immediately."
