Don't You Dare Say Cute!

Hugo guided his sleek black Benz into the parking lot of Ice Fairies, the glowing neon sign reflecting off the hood of his car as he and Loli casually munched on cookies.

The lot was nearly full, cars lined up in neat rows under bright streetlights, and groups of people were walking toward the entrance, chattering excitedly as their breath formed small clouds in the cold night air.

It was a lively scene, but honestly, Hugo's focus was entirely on his current situation;

The fact that Loli, the very same girl who once looked like she wanted to strangle him in a cafe restroom, was now sitting beside him, feeding him cookies like he was some kind of pampered prince!

Or at least, trying to.

"Here, open up," Loli cooed sweetly, holding a cookie between her fingers, her eyes twinkling mischievously.
