Star Eater Novels & Stories

That takes energy, time, finances and all of that. But she didn’t come off to be bothered by it. Maybe she just owns it and has hired a set of cooks and a chef to cook the various ordeals. “Come on.” She pulled me by the arm, running down the street to a particular restaurant. It isn’t so much big but it is bigger than most restaurants I had seen. Plus it is a 4 star restaurant on this street. It had lights all round the main tab that read “LAY’S FOODS; Eat anything you want to your satisfaction. You owe no one a flat belly.” I almost burst into laughs when I read the tab. It is hilarious to think she is encouraging people to eat and get fat.

Victoria Dexter, mostly called Toria, squealed with her hands wide open right before she grabbed her sister in a hard, enveloping. “Euf, what have they been feeding you over there?”Reyona said with laughter as she breathed in the familiar aromatic, balsamic scents that sparked memories. "Food. Of course, the Lone Star was especially known for its chicken fried steak, you know. Hmm, those darlings are to die for.” Toria said with a dreamy look on her face as he stepped back from Reyona’s embrace after a while. “Yeah, right. I am just going to take your word for it.” Reyona said as she turned her sister’s arm over, “And a lot of sunshine too, I can see.”

I said with a frown. "You'll love it" The funny looking waitress came up to us placing two menus on the table. It's not so surprising the menu is on a wood shaped thing. After all, she's dressed like a sea goddess. With all those palms sticking out of her head. I glared at the menu . I Would've loved to try grilled octopus with potatoes and olives but that made my stomach churn. "Steamed sea bass with a rice noodle" I tell the waitress and she nods and looks at Damien who looks least interested in anything. I kick his legs under the table and he grinned.

I pulled up to the order window and rolled down my window. "Hello, Welcome To Starbelly's , What can I get you?" The young woman asked as she held a small notebook in her hand. I smiled at her and ordered myself a Double Cheeseburger with bacon and avocado added to it, along with chili cheese fries, and a medium Pepsi. I turned to look at Artemis who was staring at the menu. "What would you like, Love?" I asked her and she turned to look at me before speaking. "May I please get a bacon cheeseburger, onion rings, and a Pepsi?"

I vowed to stay away from all shifters except Aros, but I still deal with too many. A minute ago, I heard the front doorbell ring, and that's my cue to get back to work. I leave Star behind and go straight to the table she fears to serve. "Good evening, gentlemen. My name is Elena; I'll be your waitress tonight. Have you had a chance to decide what you'd like to order?" As always, I'm polite, and a wide smile spreads across my lips as I greet the guests. As long as they don't start causing trouble, everything should be fine. I hope they won't question me about Star because I'm the worst liar ever.

"Hmmm… very you. Very Charles Adam, the superstar." A smirk played on his lips. "You don't seem impressed. Tell me, would you rather skip dinner and go straight to the kissing part?"

Jide gave me a ghost smile as he pushed a button and I beamed back at him. I put on a cheery face as the elevator dinged open and we stepped out. A lot of the guests and workers gave me stares as we made our way to the lobby. Jide steered us to the front desk and we asked for the cafeteria. We got directed to one and we wasted no time in getting there and making ourselves comfortable. "Hi. I am Trina and I will be your waiter for the day. I will let you look through the menu. Call on me when you have made a decision," a curvaceous lady in fitting uniform told us.

Stella protested with a giggle when he pretended to drag his tongue along the neck to tickle up her further. "Leo, don't do it. Ben and James may come in and I don't want them to feel awkward. Let me go." "Who cares." He responded and kept sucking her skin. Stella tried to not giggle. "Can I have WINE instead of rice ... please?" He whispered into her ears. "Don't be crazy. I'm making Tom Yam Kung for you right now. Not spicy, a lot of big king prawns and I also add a lot of straw mushrooms, your favorite, isn't it? "

Damn Audrey putting that in my head. I pad into the kitchen, and notice he has already started marinating the steaks with his back to me. I open the fridge and pull out a bottle wine, pouring myself a big glass because, why not? It is my birthday after all. I take a big gulp, sighing loudly as the clear liquid cascades smoothly down my throat. At the sound, Dan turns around and stops cold.

"So...." The man placed a hand on his chest. "My name is Chef Mastrano, at your service." He gave Lacey a slight bow and smiled. "What can I get for you?" Lacey shrugged. "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse. What do you have?" "You're the princess, right?" She nodded. Chef Mastrano sighed. "Well, most of the shifters like steak. How's that with a baked potato?" Lacey's mouth practically started watering at the thought. "Sounds great. Could you cook it medium, please?"
