Chapter 240 - 240: A Day In The Pool (Part 2) (1/2)
”Hey, buddy!” Gabriel waited for Storm to hurl himself out of the water.
Yifei took a step back, gaping at the humongous beast. She had never seen a dog that huge before. ”W-what—what the heck is that?!”
”No need to be so rude—ah! Storm, stop! You're drenching me!” Storm shook the excess water off him, soaking his mistress' brother in the process.
Yifei burst into a fit of giggles. ”That's a good look on you, Gabby!”
”Shut up...” Gabriel grumbled bashfully and glared at the clueless wolf. ”Thanks for cooling me, Storm.”
Storm does not understand sarcasm as he licked Gabriel's face as an apology.
”I got tired of waiting, so I thought that you wouldn't mind me coming here instead.” Gabriel and Yifei made themselves comfortable on the chaise lounge beside Lillie, snacking on some chilled watermelon slices. ”Who knew this girl had the same idea as I...”
”I resent that.” Yifei stick her tongue out. ”Just admit that you're following me.”
”Huh!” Gabriel snorted. ”Are you talking about yourself?”
”Dream on, sissy!”
”Watch your mouth, tomboy, or else I'll feed you to Storm!”
”I resent that too!” Yifei sneak a cautious glance at the horrifyingly large black wolf sitting beside Gabriel. She's not afraid of dogs, but this one is not your usual canine.
”What does he even eat to be this huge? The ones they keep at the zoo doesn't range up to his size...”
”Big-mouthed girls like you.”
Yifei spit a watermelon seed on his face.
”Ah! Gross!”
Yifei ignored his wails and turned to her sister-in-law. ”He never ate a human before, right?” She anxiously inquired.
”Storm just recently came back to me. He's been living with a friend of mine for years so...” Lillie chooses her words carefully, ”not that I'm aware of...”
Yeah, carefully...
Yifei turned white.
That's not reassuring! Not reassuring at all!
Gabriel gave her a smug look that says, ”Watch your step”.
Yifei fired another round of watermelon seeds at his direction.
”Stop scaring her, Gab.” Lillie scolded her brother who frantically shield himself from the seeds.
”Don't worry, Storm doesn't attack anyone casually.” She reassured.
