Onyx Latte Novels & Stories

I pour the drinks first then served it to Tyler. He asked, "What’s this?" I pointed my finger to the orange. "This is a freshly squeezed orange a that is a cofe con leche." "So, it’s basically like latte?" "Quite similar, but latte use a lot of milk whereas cofe con leche use a bit of milk. Have a sip of the drink, your food will be ready by now." Turning my body around, I make my leave. I took a few orders then proceed to handed them the note.

A burning, chemical heat that I recognized instantly. "Oh," I said, staring hard into the dark red liquid. "This blend is highly unusual." The young Omega maid standing behind my chair scurried forward, her shoes squeaking against the polished floorboards. "It is a special house mix, Luna. Crushed currents and winter root. Is it not to your liking?" "There is a distinct note of silverthorn in this glass," I said, my voice dropping to a harsh, gravelly whisper. The maid blinked, her face draining of colour. "I am certain the kitchens did not include that, Luna. I will have it replaced immediately."

I say with a little smile pulling out my pen, my compliment seemed to stroke some of their egos as they send me a smile and one even a wink. “Cameron over there will have a large black tea, Mason and Thomas will both have flat whites and Rupert, who can not handle the caffeine, what a joke right Miss Hart, will have a chocolate mocha.” Owen explains pointing to each man as he speaks, whilst scoffing at the poor man I now know as Rupert.

"Sera, you're finally willing to see me. I knew you'd come. I knew deep down you still cared." I sat down across from him with no expression, keeping my face carefully neutral. He frantically pushed over a cup of coffee he'd already ordered, his hands shaking slightly. His face wore a pathetic, pleading smile that made my skin crawl. "This is the flavor you used to love most. Vanilla latte with extra foam. I specially ordered it for you, just like old times." My gaze fell on that cup with its elaborate latte art - a heart shape that must have taken the barista extra effort.
