Novel & Cerita Mad Honey

I pretended not to notice and asked, "Can I borrow your phone?" He nodded and handed it to me. I quickly tried calling Daniel again. As soon as he picked up, I hurriedly said, "Daniel, your whole family got stung by wasps. It's really serious! Transfer the money for the surgery to me now!" I thought he would ask how much, but after two seconds of silence, he cursed at me, "Linda, if you want money, you don't have to curse my family!" I was stunned, then quickly explained, "I'm not lying. They really were stung and are now in the ICU. We have to raise money immediately for the surgery."

"Yes, I did. My throat feels much better now. The honey you bought is really good. Even your grandfather, who's not fond of sweet things, finds it soothing." Melody smiled. "I bought it from a beekeeper in the countryside. It has much fewer additives than those processed ones. It's pure and natural, so you and Grandpa can drink it without worries. I'll buy more next time!" Meanwhile, Lucas was still playing with Melody's hair. For some reason, Beatrice was glaring at him.

The next morning Maddie woke up with a shock. For a moment she did not know where she was until she recognized the open doors that led to the balcony and heard the sound of the twittering birds. Eighteen years old, it shot through her and she felt a strange tension in her stomach. Omem had made a special tea for her, which she drank before going to sleep. A mixture of marigold, elderberry, and anise, sealed with a ritual spell. Among other things, it was supposed to help her refresh her mind.

Who is the person to give all this? “Hazel, pride of my mansion! I am pleased to see you. Good morning, how did you sleep, huh?” Honey was dripping from her tongue but alas, the honey was mixed with sugar. Something fake and indigestible. “Come here, we’ve got a big deal and I want to go there and take care of my customers, as we know how beautiful you are…” she threw a fake smile in her direction. Like always!

She says simply and I laugh at his face, getting outed by a 7-year-old. “What flavor did you get?” I ask her. “Cherry currant and toffee surprise, I got two scoops!” She giggles as she runs the length of the apartment. “And this is why she doesn’t get sugar, Marshall.” I say gesturing to her as we watch Maddie dealing with her sugar high. “I guess it’s a good thing whatever Tyson is taking us to is full of walking.”

But he had chosen to leave, to disappear, and to hide in the shadows while I ate his food and read his words and tried to make sense of a man I did not understand. I picked up the bread and tore off a piece, and the warmth of it spread through my fingers and into my chest. I dipped it in the honey and put it in my mouth, and the sweetness filled my tongue, and I closed my eyes and tried to remember the last time I had eaten something that tasted like this. The honey was rich and golden, with a floral undertone that reminded me of summer, of flowers, and of warmth that had nothing to do with fire.

Áine double-checks with a look of surprise on her face, much to Irina’s and my amusement. “No, I said Ma-ma-jua-na,” I sound out. “It’s a spiced drink made with run, red wine, honey, tree bark and herbs. Kind of tastes like port.” Irina makes a grossed out face. “Sorry, Lani but that sounds vile. Rum and red wine? Seriously?” “Don’t knock it till you try it. The one my mamá makes is ¡qué rico!” I exclaim smugly. “Your mum makes alcohol?” Áine quizzes, her surprise only growing.

Allan already had a taste of so many beverages out there, but so far, nothing tasted any better for him aside from Mellow Cola. As such, when he heard Jace mentioned his favorite drink, he could not help but felt excited. Juts the mentioned of its name was already enough for him to salivate. Mellow Cola, so as by its name was a type of carbonated drink like Cola made but it was made from the tears of a Salamander Spinx. A special kind of beast that was specifically reared for one specific purpose and that was food production. Mellow Cola has unique carbonation that felt like a firecracker inside one's mouth when one drank it. Also, its year-long fermented sugar was a hundred times sweeter th

Zlata Likhachyova’s corner bakery has always been popular, ever since I can remember. She’s famous for her freshly baked cookies and Medovik (honey cakes.) That familiar warm, sweet smell filled my nostrils invitingly as I hurried inside. Three people bundled up in heavy jackets and warm clothing waited patiently for their orders, sitting in the only four available seats. I used to hound Zlata about buying a larger space, but she’d wave me off and give me something to “stick my nose in so I’d stay out of her business.” Crowds would come and go, and there were days I’d be rolling out dough, baking, and layering the final products with rich creamy icing without any breaks for eight hours strai

"Here my friend, Beluga vodka. Made from pure grain; down from Russia. It has a very high alcoholic content of about 40%." He dropped the bottle and picked up another transparent bottle, although, the content was not as clear as the previous one. "And this one is called American Honey. Made with wild turkey Kentucky bourbon and pure honey. It is a 35% alcohol liqueur blended with honey and real wild turkey bourbon whisky. And of course, from the United States of America." He makes his way to another bottle. So, I interrupted. "I am sorry Mr. Bendez, but I don't think we can do that today. I got people waiting for me at home. So, I am gon have to take the lessons next time."
