Serena's POV: 

Today, as the future Luna of the pack, I was going to attend the formal banquet of the Westwick family for the first time.It was a tradition before the Mate Ceremony, and it was going to be held in the banquet hall of Maple House.

Elders and high-ranking officials from packs all around the world were invited to attend.

I found the atmosphere during the banquet to be quite relaxing and pleasant actually.

Of course, there had to be someone who was dissatisfied with me, only because I was a she-wolf of unknown origin.

They spoke in a voice dripping with sarcasm, saying that I was undeserving to be Peter's mate, but they were instantly refuted by Peter himself.

Even Peter's parents were also on my side.

I was determined to be a highly respected Luna in the pack, just like Luna Vicky.

One day, I would prove to everyone that family background was not always the most important thing to be considered.

As the party was coming to an end, the desserts had been served.

I happily ate the mango souffle, and it was scrumptious.

All of a sudden, I noticed some dust particles fall onto my plate.

My eyes followed the falling dust to where it was coming from.

As expected, another cloud of dust fell from the ceiling.

With my sharp werewolf hearing ability, I heard a hollow, creaking sound coming from up there.

I watched as cracks began to appear on the ceiling, right where the ornate crystal chandelier was bolted to.

The ceiling collapsed, and the chandelier came crashing down, right above me.

"Serena, watch out!" Peter's voice jolted me out of my daze.

My survival instincts immediately kicked in.

My body reacted quicker than my brain could even think of what to do first.

Without thinking twice, I reached my hands out and willed the big chandelier to fling itself to the other side of the banquet hall.
