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

Chapter 23: Wedding Dress 

Serena's POV:

Finally, our car pulled up to the shopping mall where Anita and I met up with Patricia and her friends.

While waiting, they had already picked out a whole pile of clothes for me to try on. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Along with Camille, Patricia had also brought the she-wolves I met at the swimming pool yesterday.

Even though I knew they didn't like me, I still had to say hello and be nice to them since they were Patricia's friends.

"What took you so long, Serena? Come on, we've already chosen so many clothes for you to try!"

Patricia ran over to me with her arms full of clothes.A burst of different colors seemed to flow out of the pile.

"If they all fit you well, we're buying them all!" Patricia beamed with excitement.

"Oh, my, no! That's too many clothes." Peter might be scared if he saw the bill for this shopping trip.

"Oh, come on, Serena.Don't worry about Peter's money.There's no limit on this card! Besides..."

She paused and wiggled her eyebrows.

"It'll make him so happy to see you look gorgeous in these clothes.That's just how you're going to repay all this shopping!"

Patricia pointed at the two shopping bags of lingerie that they had already checked out.

I peeked inside and my cheeks instantly flushed.I saw several thongs inside.

Some were so thin and translucent that I was not sure if they would even function as normal underwear.

"Serena, what do you think of this dress for your ceremony?"

A voice came from behind me.It was one of the she-wolves from the swimming pool.

It was the first time I had seen her completely out of water, and only now did I notice her perfect figure.

She had a great pair of boobs, a slender waist, and long, flawless legs.I thought I heard that her name was Kate.

"Ooh, it does look like a good choice," another of Patricia's friends chimed in.

I looked at the direction they were pointing in.It was a white wedding dress.Behind it was a very long, lace train.

I had never attended a Mate Ceremony, but I knew that it was similar to a human wedding ceremony.

The color was nice, but I felt that the dress was too fancy for me.

It also looked very complicated, so I wouldn't be able to move around a lot in it.I looked around for more choices and saw the white dress beside me.It was a simple design that hugged the body just right.

It didn't have a long train behind and looked comfortable enough to give me the freedom to move.

Trying to think of the ceremony itself, I didn't want to be just a doll that stood in one place for everyone to look at.

"Hmm, I think this simpler one is good, too." I walked up to the dress I liked and held it.

"I think Peter will like this one more," the she-wolf said matter-of-factly, as if she had known Peter a lot.

"Those two are good choices.Let's just get both!" Patricia waved her hand nonchalantly.

"No, I don't need two.One is enough."

After the ceremony, I wasn't one to wear wedding dresses on a normal day.

Buying two that I wouldn't even get to wear much would be a waste.

"What do you think, Camille?" I turned to her, who had been silent all this time.

Camille always dressed nicely.I was certain she'd have more of an eye for style than I did.

"They're both good, but that one is more eye-catching and will really make you the center of attention," Camille replied, pointing at the extravagant dress.

"Yes, and you should see this special feature!" another she-wolf said and nodded at the saleswoman as if to cue something.

The saleswoman walked over and pulled the ribbon bow that sat at the waist of the gown.

Suddenly, the entire dress slid off of the mannequin and revealed the entire body.

"Once you get back to your room with Peter after the ceremony, you'll surely save him a lot of trouble!" Patricia squealed with delight.

Sometimes, I wished I could cover Patricia's mouth to shut her up.She was talking so loud in public!

"Well, Anita, how about you? What do you think?"I asked her.

"It does look very interesting," Anita nodded, looking impressed.

I trusted Anita's words.Maybe this dress wasn't so bad, after all.I just wouldn't be able to move around as much in that dress on the ceremony.

Peter's POV:

Alvin mink-linked me, saying that they had returned from the mall.

Serena was back.I put my work to the side and immediately went up to our room to see her.I walked in on Serena sorting through the clothes that she had bought.

"How'd it go, honey? Did you enjoy your shopping today?"

Walking over to her, I held her waist from behind and kissed the top of her head, filling my nose with her beautiful scent.

"I think I bought too many clothes today, Peter.Some of these I don't even know when I'll ever get to wear!"

Serena said with a look of concern.

"Hey, it's okay, honey.Don't pressure yourself with all these clothes.I will love whatever you wear.Besides, the closet is still quite empty.Even with all these clothes, there's still a lot of space left."

I made my way down to the crook of her neck and kissed it too.

Just as I reached out my hands to help Serena with the shopping bags, she stopped me right away.

"Thanks, Peter, but I need to wash these first.I'll put them in the closet after they dry."

I saw a hint of red on her cheeks.

Chuckling, I held up my hands in surrender and obeyed her command.It was probably some underwear in those bags.

"Oh, have you chosen a dress for the ceremony?"

"Yes, actually.All the girls recommended that dress.One of the she-wolves even said that she was sure you'd like that one.It seemed that she knew you well.I think her name was...Kate? Do you know each other?"

"Oh...Kate? Yeah, she's the pack's singer and dancer.We worked together before to welcome visitors and allies during an event."

At the mention of Kate's name, I felt my heart skip a beat.

"Hmm, I see.Go, take a look at the dress.It's on a hanger over there."

Serena pointed at the hanger by the window.Seeing the white wedding dress, I was taken aback.Serena would definitely look divine in that gown.

I had also attended the Mate Ceremony of some other werewolves.I had seen their partner appear in this kind of white wedding dress, too.

"It's...beautiful.I can just imagine you in this dress, Serena.Oh, the pack's going to love you as their Luna!"

"Do you...want me to try it on for you now?"

"Yes, please! I can't wait to see it on you."

Serena nodded and entered the walk-in closet with the gown in her arms.

I could tell she was still shy to change clothes in front of me.I had never seen her completely naked, after all.

"Serena, honey, do you need any help in there?"

"No, it's fine.I got it.Just hold on a second!"

The sound of fabric rustling sounded from inside the closet.

Minutes later, Serena finally came out of the closet, holding up the front of her dress a little so she wouldn't trip.

I was absolutely stunned by the woman before me.

She was my future Luna, my mate.She looked so regal and gorgeous.

"Oh, baby.You just took my breath away.You are stunning! You're going to be the most beautiful bride and Luna anyone has ever seen." Her beauty was truly beyond words.

"Maybe I'll roll up my hair? Let me see if it'll help pull the look together." Serena turned to the mirror and began combing her hair.

"Honey, your bow looks a little messy.Here, let me help."

I noticed the ribbon bow at her waist was a little crooked so I reached out, hoping to redo it.

"No, Peter, don't!"

But before Serena could finish her words, her wedding dress had slipped right off of her body and onto the carpeted floor.

It looked like a beautiful gift had been unwrapped right before my eyes.

The dress had revealed Serena in a luxurious set of lacy white lingerie.

Her full, round breasts sat snug in her bra like two white rabbits, but looked like they could jump out at me any moment.

I moved my gaze downwards, only to see the thinnest panties lined with lace.

They were so thin and translucent that they almost failed to cover anything, and I could see some hair peeking through.

I looked at Serena's body as a whole.She was perfectly toned and fit.

Instantly, my dick had become hard.I felt the blood in my body rush downward and the tip of my penis began to pulsate.

"Serena...you...you're beautiful."

It was all I could say. Serena became flustered and rushed to cover herself.

"I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you about that feature of the dress..." I stepped forward to wrap her in my arms, but she ducked and ran back inside the closet.

"Aw, honey.You don't have to be shy around me."

"No, I...Anita is waiting for me.I'm going to meet with her.You also still have work to do, Peter.Can you come back earlier tonight?"

"Well, fine.I'll see you tonight, then."I heaved a frustrated sigh.Interrupted once again.

Good timing was so hard to come by.Well, maybe I really should give Serena some more time.

"Yes, see you tonight, Peter."
