Novel & Cerita Pot Calling Kettle Black

The entire house was quiet, save for the sound of dishes clanking and water running. It was late, and most of the staff had retired to their quarters. The kitchen was the only brightly lit place in the entire house. Jethro stood at the counter, his sleeves rolled up and a dish towel draped over his shoulder. The stainless-steel counters gleamed under the bright light, and on one of them sat an elegant kettle, steam coming out in volumes from its spout. He’d measured the tea leaves carefully, one of the few tasks in his life that didn’t require strategy and logistics or trust. He poured water just off the boil, letting it seep into the leaves, producing a rich amber color and a soothing aroma

I hissed, instinctively loosening my grip. That was all she needed. She surged forward— Straight toward the phone. But in her blind panic, she didn’t see it. The kettle. Still sitting on the counter, freshly boiled. Her arm slammed into it. And everything happened at once. The kettle tipped. The lid flew open. And the boiling water spilled all over her. "AAAHHHHH—!" Her scream tore through the room. High-pitched. Animalistic. She stumbled backward as the water cascaded over her arm—

When his eyes fell on her, he saw her head resting on his shoulder, giving him a knowing look. "So, how do I say pussy in English to be politically correct?"

"Why quickly, Love?" asked Black, putting her back on the floor. Bianca trotted over to the pot and began to boil some water.

“The usual. I need some rest.” “Is it the usual? You only pop by at this time when you're struggling with something.” I sighed. The woman knew me a little too well. “Go on. You can tell me. Nothing I haven't heard before.” I watched her draw out a cup from the cupboard. “The kettle Dante.” I blinked, turning my attention to the kettle I'd been filling. It was beyond full.

“The future Beta. And a white wolf to boot. Your future pups will be quite beautiful with Charlie’s chocolate coloring and Zak’s reddish hue. The three of you will make wonderful parents.” My mouth drops open and I hear Charlie squeak out, “Our future… pups!” Just then, the kettle begins to whistle. Lucille stands and walks towards the stove. Taking the kettle off, she pulls down three mugs and starts to pour. “Just in time,” she says. Sneaking a look at Charlie and me, she adds, “I think that we might need to make these coffees Irish, if we are to talk any further, hmmm?” Still staring where she was sitting, I absently nod my head. “Good plan, Lucille.”
