Dessert in Distress - Part l

“Oh goodness! You are here!” Corvina exclaimed as she greeted me with a huge smile. I stepped inside the packhouse, and Corvina came forward to greet me with a hug.

“I didn’t have any other choice.” I sighed, “I cannot afford to get on the Beta female’s bad side, now can I!” I joked and Corvina gave me a stern look.

“You brought flowers!” Corvina exclaimed noticing the basket of flowers I was carrying. I nodded and she excitedly exclaimed, “They will be perfect for some centrepieces.”

“Or for desserts!” I suggested and her eyes brightened. “Yes!”

“Let’s go inside, others are waiting.” She said as she ushered me inside towards the kitchen.
