Special abilities

Unbeatable Chef Xenon

Chapter 56

Horror filled their faces as they watched Xenon pour the cold fuel on their body, smiling wickedly as if he was bathing their death.

They might not be humans but fire was a very sensitive weapon and could destroy them for eternity. They would perish never to return and Alex couldn't risk all of that for Draco who doesn't even regard them a bit.

"Draco is coming to the city tomorrow!" He blurted out and Xenon paused his actions, keeping back his lighter in his pockets as he stared at Alec who kept puffing away the fuel that was dripping to his lips.

"I'll tell you what you need to know about him but just promise not to kill me please."

He shakily begged and Xenon shrugged, dragging the chair to sit down.

"Deal, tell me everything and why he's after my life when I haven't even met him in person."

Andrea threw a fierce glare at Alec and Xenon smirked. He snapped his fingers and Valentino walked in to meet him, knowing he needed his attention.

"Take him away and burn him up, he's a distraction to us right now."

"Sure" Valentino smiled and grabbed Andrea by the neck who tried to stubbornly use his powers but was knocked out with a heavy punch that sent him to unconsciousness.

"So.." Xenon turned to face Alec whose face was nothing but a desperation to survive "So what is Darco coming to the city to do?"

"To kill you. He's desperate and he won't stop until he does it."

"That's why I'm asking why!" Xenon seethed at him, getting fed up with the repeated answer.

"Because he doesn't want you to take over the throne or the seat away from him in Viscaria. He's not the true Grandmaster of the Land but your father whom he killed to take over using your Stepmom."

Alec explained and Xenon nodded and pinched his brows, "So I have a throne at what again…Viscaria?"

"Yeah, as the son of the last grandmaster who had that seat, you're supposed to be the one to take over but you were banished after the death of your parents. He doesn't want you alive and he's going to do it because he is so dangerous and powerful."

"What time is he coming tomorrow?"

"We can't say but we were asked to book accommodation for him."

"Okay, do that right away and let me know the place. Say shit or mess up, I'll find you and kill you for real without wasting a breath. Since he wants me dead, I'll pretend to dance to his tunes."

Xenon told Alec, whose heart beat wildly in fear, that he didn't know which was a greater problem, defiling Draco or defiling Xenon.

"I know he's competing at the international competition so there's a lot you will have to do for me, the moment you mess up, you're gone because you're automatically connected to me right now the moment you inhaled the smoke," Xenon told him loosening the shackles and standing up.

"Tell me where he's going to lodge, let that be your first assignment."

He told him and left the room, leaving Alec in a whirlwind of emotions and leaving the basement.

He wasn't expecting to see anyone in the living room so a deep grunt of disapproval escaped his throat at the sight of Felicity, who sat calmly on the cushion and waited for him patiently. She stood up the moment she heard footsteps and walked towards Xenon who wondered deeply how she got into his house.

"You won't pick your calls Xenon." She said quietly and he scoffed.

"That's because I don't want to pick up, please leave Felicity. I'm exhausted and I don't have the time for this at all."

"I just wanted to talk, I know you're mad but you misunderstood everything."

"Okay, I get It. I misunderstood the fact that you knew your father's motives all along but chose to pretend not to know anything about it right?"

"Xenon, it's not what it–"

"I'm done Felicity, I don't want to have anything to do with you, don't tell me that you came all the way here to say this. Or won't work, you're a busy doctor. you should face your patient more."

"I love you."

He scoffed and bit back the mockery smile he almost displayed.

"I know, that's why you almost killed me or stayed with me to know how powerful I am. This shit won't do, I'm not interested in you Felicity. Get the fuck off!"

He yelled, feeling frustrated and Aldero walked in that same the moment to see them both but pretended not to notice Felicity.

"Maria is outside, she's desperate to see you. Should I let her in?" Aldero basked Xenon who ruffled his hair in frustration.,

"What's it with these women?"

He had been half to find out that she already left with her mother and sister as he was going to lash out at them hotly if they didn't go but why she was back there was what got him Infuriated.

"She's your niece Xenon".

"Don't say shit Aldero, you don't know what that girl is, just get her Inside and throw her out tomorrow. I'm not going to see anyone this night, I'm so fucking exhausted and I need to think."

"Copy that " Aldero replied and Xenon turned to Felicity.

"We were never a thing, you helped and I appreciate it which I will pay you back but this relationship, love bullshit is never going to work out between us. I'm not interested" He told her but Felicity only went wild and snapped in anger, making him flinch in surprise.

"I don't give up on what I want easily, you should submit to me and I will keep quiet and give you anything you want."

"Excuse me?" He scoffed in irritation."And what exactly do you mean by that?"

" I know you have special abilities Xenon, even if I don't see it when you cook, I was able to get the footage from Royal Volt Kitchen."

His heart slammed hard in his ribcage as he stared at her, his throat became dry at once before he continued.

"There is no CCTV in the kitchen Felicity, what type fuck are you talking about?"

"Well, I asked Natalia to install some and she sent the footage to me!" His heart dropped in dread.
