First Offense
Almost at the same time, James and Fenwick placed a piece of steak into their uncontrollably salivating mouths.
Instantly, their eyes went wide as the steak almost melted as it touched their tongues, without them having to even chew.
"Ahh~!"
"Delicious!"
*Scrrrrtch*
Suddenly, their teeth scraped against a few hard objects, sending a shiver down their spines.
"Hmm, what is that?"
"Is that a piece of rock?"
They frowned with displeasure as their dazed, yet happy expressions soured.
The sensation of their teeth scraping against jagged rocks was not pleasant.
James and Fenwick gazed at each other with puzzled, frowning expressions before gently pulling the unexpected objects out of their mouths, revealing small, ruby-red, crystalline jewels that shone brightly under the dim light of the moon.
"What… are these?" James asked Lucian as he took in deep whiffs of the mouthwatering red wine aroma from the jewels.
