Yeon's POV
"Damn it" I muttered as I failed to properly cook an egg. I've been up since 4:30 am trying to make Ayleen a nice breakfast but I was failing miserably.
"Really Lord Lee Yeon?" Shin-joo asked.
"I'm not a good cook so give me a break" I growled at my friend.
Shin-joo tried one of the sausage patties and he frowned. He then made me go sit down while he took over the cooking.
Ayleen's POV
I moaned as I woke up before remembering Yeon had slept with me last night. I still remember the heated kiss and my face immediately went red.
Getting all hot and bothered?
Oh, hush I reprimanded my other half. Something good got my attention and my stomach growled. A few minutes later I entered the kitchen and found Yeon finishing putting food on the table. The Nine-Tailed Fox wore a damn apron which was cute and he looked like he was kept busy for a bit.
"I was going to wake you up" my handsome mate greeted me. "But you beat me to it"
"Made this all by yourself did you fox?"
"I uh had some help" my boyfriend confessed with a blush. "I'm not very good at cooking"
I smirked before approaching him and gave his lips a quick peck.
"It's the thought that counts and I appreciate the effort"
Yeon smiled before having me sit down and he then sat across from me. He even had coffee ready for me and I began to drink some just as Shin-joo appeared.
"Good morning Ms. Moore"
Yeon looked annoyed.
"Morning yourself, I see you helped my mate cook breakfast"
"More like did most of the work, Lord Lee Yeon can't cook yet alone do chores, I had to bring him some clothes anyway since I heard he's going to be staying with you for a while, anyway I need to run"
The younger fox made a quick bow before taking his leave.
"He's a good friend but sometimes his timing sucks" Yeon muttered after the front door shut.
"Be nice"
The food was delicious and I ate everything ravenously. At one point Yeon told me to slow down but I shot him a glare. He held up his hands in surrender. The two of us then cleaned up and I had a quick shower. Since I was an author I didn't have to leave home to do my work. But I was still having writer's block.
"You can leave the house if you want to fox" I reminded Yeon as I checked my emails. My mate was reading on the couch.
"And leave you unprotected? Not gonna happen"
I rolled my eyes at Yeon's overprotectiveness as an email got my attention. It was from Mom and curiously I opened it.
"My parents are going to be coming to Seoul," I told Yeon.
"Really? When?"
"Mom is looking up flights so she'll keep me updated" I replied as I typed up a response email to Mom.
I loved my parents but sometimes they could be a pain in the butt. After sending the email I brainstormed potential ideas for my new book. While in deep thought of my thinking, a text got my attention. It was from Lydia.
Lunch at the Snail Bride?
My stomach growled and no doubt Leon heard it.
"Lydia wants to meet at the Snail Bride for lunch" I informed Yeon.
"I was getting hungry myself, I'll drive us there"
I got changed and when I found Yeon he was dressed up to the nine's. My wyvern wolf whistled and I rolled my eyes at her response.
"What was the eye roll for?"
I shut Yeon up by giving him a quick kiss.
"Calm down fox the eye roll wasn't for you, you look hot by the way"
This made Yeon smirk and after kissing my hand we left the house. On the way to the Snail Bride, I introduced the Nine-Tailed Fox to Within Temptation. Some of the songs he liked while others got rejected.
As Yeon parked outside of the restaurant, I went inside. Lydia's team greeted me and I gave my cousin a pat on the back before sitting down next to her.
"Still having writer's block?" Ji-ah wondered.
"Unfortunately but I do have ideas for the next book"
"Oh that reminds me, Ms. Moore"
Lydia's boss Choi-Tae-Suk began. I arched an eyebrow curious to what he had to say.
"The CEO of our station has personally asked for you to join us tonight at his house for dinner, guess he's a fan"
Within my mind, my wyvern swished her tail.
What's with you?
Nothing I just like us getting free food she snickered. Again I rolled my eyes just as our food arrived. We didn't even order and the owner shot me a wink. I shot her a grin back as she said the food was free today due to a valuable customer being present. We all began to eat and the food was freaking delicious. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Yeon and my mate was doing his best not to be seen.
That was hard to do when your back was turned and he was sitting right in visible sight. I chuckled and shook my head as I continued eating.
"Hey Ayleen what are you looking at?" Sae-Rom inquired.
"Her boyfriend is over there" Lydia responded and I playfully smacked my cousin on the arm. Immediately Ji-ah and Sae-Rom grinned while Tae-Suk and Pyo-Jae-hwan's eyes went wide.
"Sly girl" Sae-Rom teased. "Please come and join us!"
Yeon turned around at her invitation and played dumb.
"Me?"
A few minutes later my boyfriend sat next to me and we all ate away.
"Where did you guys meet?" Ji-ah began the questions.
"At a wedding" I replied. "Then I saw him on a bus on at Fox Hill and then at the hospital, we started dating recently"
"You two are cute together" Sae-Rom complimented. "It's about time you got a guy Ayleen"
"You think so?"
"Duh cuz"
"Damn it I wish I had your luck Ayleen" Jae-hwan sighed.
"So what do you do for work?"
"I don't have a job" Yeon answered Tae-Suk.
My cousin's boss sighed before saying.
"I knew it, I just knew it, you have time to kill and no experience so your following a successful author like Ms. Moore"
Tae-Suk then laughed and Yeon whispered into my ear.
"Can I punch him in the ribs?"
"No, you may not now behave"
My wyvern snickered at me telling our mate that. Yeon got some more questions and I felt a little bad for the interrogation he was getting but eventually it stopped and we resumed eating our lunch.
"This is gonna knock me out" I mumbled feeling sleepy.
I heard Yeon's phone go off and my beloved took it out. His face paled and then I saw anger. After placing his phone away Yeon placed a hand on my shoulder.
"I need to go take care of something I'll see you later"
Whatever was going on was serious so I nodded and Yeon kissed my cheek before taking off.
I bet Rang is up to no good again
You're probably right I agreed with my inner half.
Awww Yeon is such a sweet boyfriend as well as protective too. He just can't cook XD!
