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

Serena's POV: 

I curled myself up in a small storage room just behind the mansion.

In order to mask my scent, I spilled a bottle of disinfectant water on the floor.

The pungent smell quickly filled this narrow and enclosed space, making my head ache terribly.

But I had to endure it for now.

I escaped from the window of the bathroom, which was facing a river and a forest.

Beyond them was a vast wilderness.

It seemed like a good route for my escape.

So Peter and Alvin were probably going to assume that I would run into the wilderness.

I hoped that they wouldn't figure out that I was actually hiding behind the mansion.

A small ray of light streamed in through the crack of the wooden wall of the storage room.

Gradually, the light dimmed and night had fallen.

Peter mentioned that the party would probably end tomorrow morning.

By that time, the guests would slowly leave the mansion, and the servants would also start cleaning up.

The whole mansion would be busy then, so I figured that was a good time for me to escape without being noticed.

I couldn't sleep the whole night.

I just watched until the sky lit up again and listened to the sound outside, holding my breath as much as I could.

"Serena," a voice suddenly called out.

"What, who? Who's there?" I was absolutely startled.

"It's me, Molly." I looked around but found nobody else.

I suddenly realized that it was my wolf who had been calling me. Today was officially my eighteenth birthday, and my wolf had finally appeared.
