The Alpha's Mysterious Mate ( The Fate Series Book 1)

Chapter 13: The Ball 

Serena's POV: 

Around noontime, Alvin came to pick us up from the Black Moon Pack.

The scenery here had always been gloomy and depressing.

But leaving it felt so cheerful and beautiful like never before.

A great wave of relief sat in my heart.

I was leaving the Black Moon Pack behind for good and finally starting a better life.

"Peter, thank you so much."My eyes were filled with gratitude.

"You're welcome, Serena.Don't you think I deserve a reward from you?" Peter looked at me with a smug smile.

"Oh, what reward do you want?"

"You." Peter leaned in and gently pressed his lips on mine.

This was our first ever kiss.

His lips were so soft and pillowy.

I found his breath to be quite infatuating.

The kiss made me feel like I was floating on air.

"Uhh, excuse me.Am I invisible here?"

Alvin, who was driving, tried to interrupt as he looked at us from the rearview mirror.

My face turned red.

I tried to push Peter away from embarrassment.

But Peter put his hand behind my head, telling me that he wasn't satisfied yet with his reward.

He pressed a button on the side, rolling up the partition between the front seat and the back seat.

I then let myself get immersed in Peter's kiss.

His lips sent an electrifying current throughout my  body, making me want more.

Alvin continued to drive until we arrived at a glasshouse restaurant that was situated by the lake.

Patricia had invited us over for dinner to celebrate our victory.

She also invited Camille to come along.

After stepping out of the car, Alvin walked up to me and asked me in a teasing tone, "So, how did Peter do?"

"What? I..."

I didn't know what to say.Peter gripped Alvin's shoulder, making him step back.

"Hey, don't make fun of my mate."

Alvin laughed before going ahead to greet Patricia and Camille.

"That's what Alvin is like. Don't mind him."

Peter then reached for my hand and held it.

I nodded in reply, my face blushing at the feeling of having my hand in his.

During dinner time, we played a drinking game of Never Have I Ever.

"I'll go first.Never have I ever...been in love!"Patricia squealed.

"That's unfair, Patricia!"

Alvin complained before downing a glass of wine.

The others followed suit and also emptied their glasses.

Since most of the group had been in a relationship before, many of us lost this round.

"Never have I ever...walked arm in arm with a man!"

Alvin raised his eyebrow after he announced that.
