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?

Could It Be The Sauce?

The bustling atmosphere in Hell's Kitchen had returned to its usual rhythm, but something felt off. The night's service was in full swing, and as always, the team moved with practiced precision. The clinking of silverware, the hum of conversation, and the occasional burst of laughter filled the air. Yet, beneath the surface, a strange tension simmered.

Lucien stood in the VIP area, keeping a close eye on the guests. His keen senses picked up on the subtle changes in behavior among the staff. Lyra, in particular, was acting strangely. Normally efficient and focused, tonight she seemed almost exuberant, practically bouncing between tables. Her usual fiery temper was replaced with an unusual cheerfulness, her laughter ringing out more frequently than usual. She waited on the VIPs with a fervor that Lucien found both amusing and suspicious.
