The beautiful white cake was sitting right there on the table. Being stared at by everyone after Scarlet removed it from a portable refrigeration device that cut the necessary chilling time to thirty seconds. Justin licked his lips, Scarlet did the same and similarly, the seven people in the kitchen looked on greedily.

"Well the moment of judgement has arrived." Scarlet said to her viewers. My baby who owns this cake rightfully will be taking the first bite." You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

She cut one slice, put it on a plate and placed a fork next to it.

"Should mummy feed you?" She asked Justin.

He nodded his head willingly and she fed him the first bite of the cake.

"How is it?" She looked at him curiously. She had never baked a coconut cake before and this recipe came from one of her cook books. She had not practiced before baking it live and he was the first person to taste it.

"It's sweet mummy." He declared. "It's very sweet."

Scarlet took a bite as well albeit tentatively. She thought to herself that it could have been better. It was a bit denser than she would have liked but to people who were new to food, it was heavenly. Like the viewers in her live broadcast who were going crazy praising the cake.

[That tastes amazing, it's so amazing.]

[Are you going to sell it on the online shop? Please say yes.]

[Adopt me Scarlet I want to be your baby too.]

In the royal palace the emperor was smacking his lips and he bit into an oatmeal raisin cookie with a bitter look on his face.

"What's wrong your majesty?" His empress asked. The emperor was usually jolly when he had food or snacks in his hands.

"Justin, go and have a bath, Coral help him. You can use my bathroom and my closet has children's clothes so change him as well then take him to join his friends. Did someone change the sheets on my bed by the way?"

"I did, this morning." Anna replied.

"Change them again, Justin took a nap with me and his hands were sticky. I am sure that there is more than one sticky palm on them."

"Yes."

"I want to bake alone, the rest of you are dismissed." She didn't need their help because she had robot helpers, they were the perfect assistants.

Only Markay remained and he made himself comfortable, sitting on one of the chairs at the blue kitchen island. Normally, it was her servants who used it but it was not specifically designed for them. It was actually built for her and the members of her family.

Ignoring him, she put some music on and started working.

She and Markay were not close, she could not recall ever having a personal conversation with him. His eyes made her uncomfortable, she preferred not to be around those soul searching eyes. Still, she tried to ignore it and give all her attention to the cakes but eight cakes later in thirty minutes and he was still here. She finally had enough of his eyes following every one of her steps.

"Why are you here your highness?" she spun around and asked.

"I am waiting for the emperor's cakes, in case someone attempts something stupid after they have been delivered I will be able to step in and prove that I saw every step involved in there baking."

"So you are recording me without my consent because you think someone could attempt to poison the emperor and you will be my witness in case something like that occurs."

With her words, Markay put the tiny drone camera on the table, making it no secret that he was recording her.

"Please understand, my father's safety comes above everything."

"My privacy is also important to me but I will give you a pass today because you are using the emperor as an excuse. As one of the empire's governors I care about the safety of the emperor too after all, I am good tax paying citizen and he is yet to lift that ban on my family. Speaking of families, what are your intentions towards my sister?"
