Ginger X Cosmo Novels & Stories

Cosmo placed some cakes and a flower bouquet on the table before he whispered, “Happy birthday, I was busy with a publicity event yesterday, so I couldn’t rush back. I’ll compensate for it today.” “Is this birthday celebration for Naomi or Summer?” Naomi smiled. Summer’s birthday was yesterday, but Naomi’s was tomorrow. “It’s a birthday celebration for you.” Cosmo put the flowers in Naomi’s hands. “Not for Naomi, not for Summer, just you.” Naomi was stunned. She raised her head, looked at Cosmo, and could not help but laugh. “What should I do? When I look at your face, I feel like I’m looking in the mirror.”

Returning, he sat a small pot on the fire and emptied the contents of his water skin into it. Linus watched curiously as his omega carved up some kind of root to add in as well as a dollop of his precious honeycomb that was nearly all gone. Next was the stems of a leafy green herb then a few small, dried flowers, pretty blue petals unfurling as they soaked in the simmering water. Skye caught his eye and explained, “Ginger to ease the stomach, Krene stalks to relax the muscles, Blue Penny flowers to calm the nerves, and honey for the sweetness to balance out the sour flavors.”

Two names didn’t make it to the list his party members shortlisted, and Zen wondered why. “The Margarita is daintier than a Cosmopolitan. Your Valentini is a tad more flirtatious and forward-coming with her sweetness, but she packs a punch if you drink too fast. A Cosmorita is similar to the Cosmopolitan on the outside, but it is made from stronger stuff on the inside. Screwdrivers are more sour, but it is a staple drink. If you’re feeling adventurous, I’d recommend a Moscow Mule because it skips the juice for ginger ale. Not for those without spice tolerance.”
