Thread: Delicious Deception (MisterKing x Garnet)

Juni's baby blues were narrowed and fixed on the large man turning to face her raising her pan and giving him a vicious glare. She had just got off what felt like the longest shift of her life in the final week of their Grand opening. Right now she felt like one of the deadliest woman alive. If that scary faced bastard thought he was going to lay a hand on her after she had been through that, then he was dead wrong. Then the man who she had hoped to help had got to his feet and a leg had been swung at a very vital spot. Even the indomitable chef had to flinch back at that. The man even now taking his revenge by throwing his attacker to the ground looked like quite the gentleman surprisingly. So much so that Juniper didn't bring down her pan on his skull when he came closer. That was as much of a compliment as she could offer in such a situation. You're very welcome. Try not to dent it. She replied watching him with more curiosity as he brought down only flinching at the sheer volume of the screams. Still a little shiver ran down her spine at those sickening cracks. The blonde chuckled when he gave her bicep a squeeze raising her eyebrow and giving her arm a flex. There was definitely a strong toned muscle under that coat. The chef could butcher carcasses that weighed as much as a man and worked in a kitchen full of heavy utensils that she would never considered replacing with lighter versions. She knew her tools well enough by now to have grown used to the weight. Thanks. Not bad condition. Smiled the blonde inspecting the pan with a nervousness she was trying to shove down when he extended his hand. Juniper had barely touched his palm when he suddenly crumpled to the grounds. ...shit... All of her options entered her mind at once making her freeze like a rabbit in front of a truck. She should call an ambulance but then she and 'Ke-' would be arrested for assault. The dark haired man had certainly passed the self defense threshold and if Juniper was taken in to custody the kitchen would suffer. So... no police or ambulance. She didn't know what other weapons the brutalised men had so she couldn't confirm that helping them wouldn't leave to a knife in her throat. Damn it! She hissed bending down and shakily managing to pull the gangster up with his arm over her shoulders. A five minute brisk walk to her apartment turned into 20 minutes of lifting and dragging a muscular injured man down the street side street too her apartment. When Kenneth came to, he would find himself laying on a plush couch with house cuts bandages and heat gel on his bruises. A coffee table was in front of the couch with a tall glass of water and two large tablets, probably painkillers, resting on it. Juniper's large open plan apartment was filled with a rich smell as the chef herself stood over a pot of chicken and bone broth soup taking a sip an enjoying the slight spicy taste. Blue eyes glanced over at him widening before ladling out a bowl and grabbing a roll of crusty bread and walking over to him. Eat this, it's good for blood loss. There dessert too for when you finish. Some sugar should stop you paying out again. Oh... I'm Juniper by the way. We never really finished out introduction did we? How do you feel? She asked helping him sit up and sitting down next to him.
