Chapter 9: Part 4 - A piece of cake

= Sarah POV =

 A few moments after I had signed the contract Ms Jun returned with a tray of drinks and a slice of white chocolate cake which had a sheen of green powder dusted over it.

"I just had Mary frost my original white chocolate and pistachio cake, you have to try it, Sarah, it is so good," Ms Jun said and placed the tray down in front of me.

I thought she would sit across from me as before, however she sank down onto the couch next to me and picked up the contract to flip through. Her long elegant legs crossed, she leaned back comfortably into the plush backrest and looked over the contract at ease.

My heart on the other hand was a flutter and I wondered if Ms Jun could hear it beating loudly but chose to ignore it out of politeness.

I tore my eyes away from the elegant pinstriped pant leg that was causally swaying as Ms Jun read the contract, and I told my brain to tell my hand to pick up the Latte and bring it to my mouth to drink it. 

She was the one who came onto me, why was I the one being affected so intensely? Ms Jun's delicious cologne of freshly baked bread ( and was that hints of toffee? ) engulfed me. Did I want to eat her or be eaten? I didn't know but what I did know is that she smelt like a treat.

I took a sip of the Latte and I immediately felt myself wake up. Was that one, or two shots of espresso she added into it? And Why did it taste...extra creamy?

"Good?" Ms Jun asked as I continued to sip my drink.

"Yes, it is delicious," I said and timidly placed it down " I've never tasted anything so creamy and yet so strong before"

Ms Jun closed the contract with a satisfied nod and placed it down on the table " Well now that I have you in my care, there are a lot of creamy and strong flavours I will have you experience" she said as she reached out for the slice of white chocolate and pistachio cake. We were already sitting so close so when she leaned forward, her shoulder pressed into my arm, and I found myself scooting back a little, but then hitting the armrest as there wasn't anywhere else to go really.

"This was one of the first recipes I invented when I was learning about pastries. Sure, there is the basic framework of the cake, however only here at Jun's Café, can you taste something this potent" Ms Jun said and turned to me with not a spoon full of cake, but a piece of cake that she broke off with her bare hands.

"Don't be shy, taste it", Ms Jun said and before I could react, closed the distance between us, and held the cake up to my lips.

"I-I could um, help myself" I said but Ms Jun's smile only grew bigger. Her right arm reached around me and casually rested on the back of the couch, but I could feel her hand on my shoulder, almost a hair's breadth away from touching me.

"I'm sorry, I forgot to bring spoons, just take a little bit for me, before it drips onto the couch. I promise this will be one of the headiest cakes you will ever taste" she said, and then biting her lip " You do want to get to know the product you will be selling, right?" Ms Jun said with a twinkle in her eyes. 

I felt my entire body feel hot. Her eyes on me, the piece of cake hovering in front of my face, her hand almost touching my shoulder. I just signed the contract. I didn't want to lose this job, but I also didn't know where this was going, and I didn't know how I felt about Ms Jun, doing things to me…

…but I needed the money.

"Ok" I said and reached up to take the piece of cake from Ms Jun, hoping that maybe that would signal to her that I didn't want to be hand-fed by her.

"Ah" Ms Jun suddenly said and like a lil dingus, I immediately copied her and she pressed the piece of cake into my mouth.

I sat there frozen, my hand in midair as I found myself with a mouthful of cake.

"Chew it my sweetness" Ms Jun grinned, making me blush as I realised how dumb I must be looking with my mouth open, cake just sitting in my mouth.

I quickly chewed and swallowed the piece. In all honesty, it was amazing. The creamy flavour of the white chocolate, the nutty bitter elements of the pistachios and the dark rich flavour of something else… was that coffee? It just brought the whole flavour palette together beautifully.

"It's amazing, but there is this…heavy undertone that I can't quite figure out" I said nervously. In fact that one little piece felt like it was having a strange effect on me.

"Rum. You know rum raisin is a very popular ice cream flavour, well I experimented with it in other recipes, and this one turned out the best. Isn't it finger-licking good?" she said and before I could think, pressed her sticky creamy fingers to my lips.
