Chapter 27: Chocolate
" Ah... okay. " Leaving the plans for later, Max rushed towards his office since he still needed to maintain his second life.

Lucian was watching TV when Natasha came back with all the ingredients, and it seemed that she was in a really great mood. Placing all of them in the kitchen she spoke:
" Lucian just wait a little. I'll prepare the cake instantly. "
" I'll help you out. " Lucian said and turned the TV off. Then he walked into the kitchen and stood beside his mother, his height was a little shorter than his mother's.
Natasha looked at her son and remembered the time when he would watch her prepare the cake for him, and in the pretence of helping her he would always secretly eat up the chocolate.
While Natasha was busy in her own thoughts, Lucian asked in his head: ' How long before that man comes back to this house? Also what is her ability? I still can't understand what happened earlier when she hugged me. '
[ Around an hour or so. As for her ability it's a bit hard to explain but in simple terms, she could move in advance. Let me explain with an example, if she is fighting an enemy then the enemy would be sliced in half out of nowhere and she would be launching her attack after a few seconds. ]
' That's still a little confusing, so it's like a glitch. Just like earlier when she had hugged me but her body had arrived there after a few seconds had passed. '
Lucian thought. This is a great ability since she would be able to take any opponent by surprise and they wouldn't even know from where the attack would come from, after all, it would appear out of nowhere.
And even her defence is perfec. If someone launches a surprise attack on her, then the attack would be stopped immediately, even if she becomes aware of the enemy after a few seconds and then defends herself.
' It's like she is living in a glitched world, things would happen before and then her body would be moving, it's actually better than even the observation Haki, let's try it. ' Lucian thought.
[ Yeah, it's related to the time laws of the world and it is much more special than you think. ]
" Okay, you can help out Mommy, but don't try to steal the chocolate like before. " Every time she spoke like that, her heart fluttered in joy. Natasha took out the ingredients from the bag and began to place them all on the kitchen counter.
" Okay Mom, I won't take any. " Lucian spoke while releasing a sigh, then he placed his hand on the counter and 'accidentally' hit the bag of the flour.
Just as the bag began to fall down, before it could even touch the floor it stopped in the mid - air. Lucian stared at it and could clearly see the mark of a hand holding the flour bag from beneath, and then Natasha caught it and placed it back on the kitchen counter.
" You are fine, right? " She asked while taking his hand in her.
" Yes I am fine, now let's start. " Lucian spoke, with this woman on his side he would have an extra life, so he needed to change her a little.
Right now she cares and loves him a lot and could definitely risk her life to save him, but what Lucian wants is slightly different; he wants her to support him with anything he might do in the future even if it is morally right or not, she should prioritise him above all else.
As Natasha started to prepare the cake, they began to talk about all kinds of things from the time when Lucian was little, this kind of talk made her feel emotional and she felt that she needed to get much more closer to him.
And while helping her, Lucian would often touch her but they were just normal touches, seeing that he did not hate her touches Natasha became much more relaxed and was no longer hesitating to do anything.
While she was adding the chocolate, her right hand got dirty with the chocolate and when she was brushing her hair back, she accidentally got a little bit of chocolate on her face.
" Ah, Mommy you got some chocolate on your face. " Lucian spoke, while pointing towards her.
Natasha looked at her own reflection against one of the utensils and saw that there was really a small line of chocolate going from the middle of her cheek to the area right beneath to her lower lip.
" Haha I guess I am a little too excited, let me wipe it off. " Saying that, she extended one of her hands to turn the tap on and wash both, her face and her hand.
" No don't throw the chocolate away, you know how much I love it. Just let me eat it. " Lucian spoke as he stopped her from washing her hand.
" Huh? How are you going to eat this? There is still some chocolate left so you can have that, let me just w- " But without paying attention to her words, Lucian brought her right hand closer to his face.
He held her soft white palm and before she could speak anything Lucian turned the palm towards his face and brought his tongue out, Natasha felt an electric current run all across her body as Lucian licked off the chocolate on her palm.
" Wait you shouldn't be eatin- Mmmm~ " Natasha tried to stop him, no matter how much he loves eating chocolate and even though she didn't mind him kissing her hand, but this was a bit too strange, yet Lucian continued to lick her smooth skin.
