Chapter 175: How’s The Ice Cream?

I looked around again. I couldn’t find him, but I knew it had to be Michael.
It didn’t matter. I had other ideas.
I saw an ice cream shop on the side of the road, and I pulled Kate over.
It was cheap and delicious, and the students at school liked to buy one after class for the road. But more importantly, the shop had a young and handsome owner. Many girls would rather take the long way to get ice cream to look at the owner and grab an ice cream cone from his warm hand.
“Hey, Garrett,” I greeted the owner.
“Hi, Cecily. Long time no see.” Garrett smiled at me.
Garrett had offered to ask me out a long time ago, but back then, I was still immersed in the pain Robert had caused me, so I rejected him.
Now that I thought about it, Garrett was also a good choice. His light brown hair was fluffy and had a bit of a natural curl. He looked charming, and the color was also a bit like Michael’s.
“Do you want an ice cream?” Garrett asked.
“Yes, give me two, one strawberry flavor and one… Kate, what do you want?” I turned my head and asked.
“Chocolate,” Kate said.
“So, one strawberry and one chocolate,” I said to Garrett with a smile.
“No problem.” Garrett nimbly scooped two ice creams, sprinkled an extra layer of crushed nuts on my one, and winked at me flirtatiously.
I was supposed to leave just like that, but I thought of the person staring at me from behind. He hadn’t made any movements until now, so I talked to Garrett a little more.
“Wow, I didn’t expect you to remember my preferences. I’m touched.” I took the ice cream from Garrett’s hand and deliberately turned sideways, showing everyone my brilliant smile.
“Of course, I remember your preferences. I remember everything about you.” Garrett scratched his head and said, “You’re also beautiful today.”
“I thought I was beautiful every day.” I tucked my hair behind my head to show off my slender neck and the back of my neck that had never been marked. This proved that I was free.
I saw Garrett gulp. He was a cute boy. If I didn’t have Michael, maybe I would have considered him.
But now, I could only apologize to him for the time being. I apologized to Garrett in my heart. I wondered how long Michael would have to hide in the dark before he could come out. I couldn’t keep up the act.
Then, I felt an intimidating presence behind me, but I didn’t look back. I wanted to see what Michael would do. Suddenly, I felt the ice cream in my hand being taken from above and tossed into the trash can.
I stared at the ice cream as it disappeared into the bin. A few drops of molten pink remained on the tips of my fingers. I didn’t even have time to take a bite. Then, someone grabbed my hand, and as I turned around, Michael’s eyes burned with anger as he looked down at me.
He wrapped his arms around me again, and he lifted my hands.
Just when I thought he was going to risk everything to take me back to his house again, he grabbed my fingers and licked the ice cream off my fingertips one by one, then hugged me.
I only heard his low and hoarse voice say, “How was the ice cream?”
“I… I haven’t eaten it yet,” I answered reflexively.
“Then, I’ll give you a taste.”
Before I could react to what Michael meant, he had already lowered his head and kissed me. This kiss didn’t have much tenderness. It was more like a declaration of sovereignty. He sucked all my breath into his mouth, leaving only a little air for me to breathe.
Michael put one hand on my waist and the other on the back of my neck. He was so strong that my neck was aching. He was warning the people around him that I belonged to him, every part of my body.
“Come back with me,” Michael said gruffly.
I looked at Garrett, who was shocked, and Kate, who had a strange look on her face. I felt a little embarrassed to be ordered by Michael. But what made me even more embarrassed was that I didn’t hate it when Michael declared his sovereignty to me. I liked the feeling of being owned by him. I wanted to go back with Michael.
“You ruined my ice cream,” I muttered.
“You still want to eat ice cream?” Michael glared at me and then coldly glanced at Garrett.
I saw Garrett involuntarily take two steps back. No one could face Michael’s dominance directly. Even our pack’s Alpha John couldn’t withstand Michael’s dominance. Besides, Garrett was just an ordinary boy.
