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

Chapter 28: A Conflict 

Serena's POV:

I thought that Peter was never going to get tired that night.

It was already early in the morning when we had fallen asleep.

By the time I woke up, rays of sunlight had streamed into the window and onto my face.

It must be quite late already, yet no one came to wake us.

Perhaps Anita told everyone not to disturb us so that we could sleep in.

"Baby, are you awake now?" Peter's morning voice was deep and gruff.

He smoothed my hair as he talked to me.

"Yes, I'm awake. What time is it anyway, Pet?"

"It's just ten o'clock in the morning, honey." I nodded, yawning and stretching out my arms and legs.

Accidentally, I brushed past Peter's dick.

Immediately, his penis had hardened.

Even though I had just woken up and was a little hungry, my desire for Peter still overpowered it all.

My eyes lusted over his dick and I just couldn't help but hold it with my hand.

How strange.

I couldn't believe that I had ever lived eighteen years of life without any dick.

It was only my first time last night, but already it was hard to imagine life without sex anymore.

I decided that it was now an important part of my life with Peter.

Peter and I couldn't keep our hands to ourselves.We had one round of morning sex, not finishing until both of us had an orgasm.

If Peter had it his way, we would have done more.

But it was already lunch time, so we restrained ourselves.I playfully pushed myself off of Peter and headed to the bathroom.

Not long after, he appeared leaning on the doorframe, smiling at me.

"What's up, Pet?" I asked while washing my face.

"Oh, nothing.I just wanted to stare at my beautiful lady.Just can't get enough."

He then came up and hugged me from behind.

"Pet, it’s time to go.It's already lunch time.Isn't everyone waiting for us?"

"Keep them waiting, then.They know what we're busy doing up here.The best part is, they wouldn't even judge us.In fact, they'd be happy for us!"

"Let me go, Pet.Or else, I will..."

I cupped my hands under the running faucet and splashed the water in his direction.

"Ah! You bad girl.You need to be punished immediately!"

Peter let go of my waist and also scooped up water with his hands to throw at me.

My clothes had been completely soaked! I looked down and found that the wet parts of my shirt were conveniently where my breasts were.

My wet shirt had stuck to my body, making my boobs pop out even more.

"Oh, look what you've done.You made me hard again.You need to be held responsible for this, Serena."

Peter smiled and scooped me up, laying me down in the bathtub.The tub was now christened with its first lovemaking by me and Peter.

By the time we had arrived at the dining hall, everyone was already eating their lunch.

But when they saw us enter, whispers and murmurs immediately filled the room.I guessed the cat was out the bag.Everyone knew that we finally made love.

"Peter, Serena, up already? I was just about to ask Mrs.Brown to send food directly to your room," Anita said thoughtfully.

"Oh, thank you, Anita.But we're here already.Sorry that we're late...and missed breakfast," I smiled awkwardly.

"Peter, if you want, you can have the rest of the day off, too.David and I can deal with the matters of our pack and the company while you're gone," Alvin offered, wiggling his eyebrows.

"Ha.Thank you, Alvin.But I won't be taking the day off today.Just because I have a beautiful girl next to me, doesn't mean I'll forget about my work." Peter winked at me.

In a span of twelve or so hours, we had already made love four times.

If ever Peter chose not to work today, I wouldn't be surprised if that number doubled, or even tripled, by tonight.Thinking of this made me blush and I lowered my head to hide it from everyone.

"Oh, my God! Is that what I think it is? Have you both left your marks on each other already?" Patricia squealed out loud when she caught a glimpse of our necks.

"Looks like the Red Maple Pack will be having a baby soon! Oh, it won't be long, I'm sure," she sang at the top of her lungs.

This news seemed to delight everyone, most especially Peter's parents.

Feeling numerous pairs of eyes stare at me was a little uncomfortable.Even Camille looked at me.

But, I could have sworn that I saw a displeased expression on her face.Or maybe I was just overthinking it.

After we finished our lunch, Peter went ahead to work in his office.

And Anita took me to the tennis court at the top floor.

I had played tennis with Brandon before.Of course, we kept it a secret.I found myself actually enjoying the sport.

"Oh, Serena.I need to go meet with David now.Do you want to come with me? Or you can stay here and practice more.I can come back for you later,"

Anita said after getting off the phone with David. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Hmm, I'll stay and practice here.You can go ahead, Anita.Take care." Anita nodded and left, leaving me to practice my serves with the wall.

"Well, well, well. Look who it is!"

A she-wolf's voice called from behind me.

I turned to see Kate along with her friends.It was obvious from their expressions that they were no longer being friendly to me like they were back at the mall.

This wasn't strange at all, I thought to myself.

Now that Patricia wasn't here, they could act however they wanted now.But I was going to let them know that I was not a woman to be trifled with.

I had faced a lot of mean she-wolves back in the Black Moon Pack.I wasn't afraid of them at all.

Besides, as the future Luna of this pack, I should know how to deal with this on my own. If I failed to solve such a small problem as this, I simply wouldn't survive being the Luna of this pack.

I didn't want to talk to them, but I knew I couldn't just leave either. Leaving would make me look like a weakling.

"So it seems that she and Peter have already slept together," one of the she-wolves blurted out.

"Shut up! I don't want to hear about it!" Kate lashed out at the she-wolf.

Judging by how they appeared, it looked as if Kate was the head of this group.

"How about a game of tennis, Serena?" Kate challenged me.

"Alright." I shrugged.

I felt like Anita had taught me enough to play against other people.I knew that Kate was just trying to provoke me.

She walked onto the court with a racket and ball in her hands, telling me that she was serving first.She launched the ball straight up into the air and swung at it with great force.

I saw the ball fly fast over the net and towards me.

She wasn't going to play tennis with me.She just wanted to hit me.

The ball collided onto my shoulder.The impact was great enough to throw me off balance.

"Oops, sorry.My bad." I rubbed my shoulder and didn’t say anything, preparing for her next serve.

This time, the ball was headed straight for my face.I quickly jumped to the side and successfully hit the ball back to her side.Unintentionally, the ball hit her face.

"How dare you hurt me, you little bitch?"

Kate fell to the ground, covering her face.Slowly, she got up, glaring at me.

I heard her growl before running towards me.

While running, Kate had transformed into a gray wolf.

Her eyes had kept the same anger, but now two rows of razor sharp teeth were coming toward me.

She was fueled with so much hatred.

I didn't even have any idea what I had done to her before.

Molly was itching for me to transform and fight back.

My body reacted to this instinct, but I wasn't sure what to do next.

Since I did not know how to transform yet, I had to make do with what I had and clenched the racket in my hand, ready to protect myself no matter what.Kate roared and lunged at me.

My legs were quick enough to help me dodge the attack.

I knew that if that dodge was delayed even for a millisecond, my face would've been scratched by her claws.

I tried to swing my racket at her when I dodged, but she was too quick.

Kate growled and crawled slowly on the ground, like a predator looking for its opportunity to catch its prey.

I kept my focus on her movements and held my racket up.

Kate then looked at her friends and nodded her head, asking them to join her.She wanted this to be over as soon as possible.

The other three she-wolves quickly took off their clothes and transformed with no hesitation at all.

Now, three more wolves were coming in my direction.

One against four was hardly a fair fight. I was badly outnumbered.

"Help! Anyone!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.

The four wolves continued to growl and circled around me.

Kate was the first to try attacking me again.

Thankfully, I was able to react in time and whacked her on the head with my racket.

She fell to the ground and whimpered.She was in pain.

It was time then for the other three wolves to gang up on me.

Just when they were about to pounce, they saw something from a distance and retreated while shrieking.

I suddenly saw a few egg-sized stones fly out of the maple forest behind me, hitting each of them accurately.

They looked around trying to find the culprit and stepped back.

However, they still refused to leave.

All of a sudden, a black and white striped wolf came rushing from the mountain and landed on the rooftop.

It stood beside me, wrapped in a cloak.It then transformed into a girl who looked just about as old as I was.

She had a pretty face and her short hair was slicked back neatly.She picked up the cloak and covered her body.

"What are you thinking? Are you all crazy?" Her voice was full of dignity and command.

Kate and the others had transformed back into human form as well.They appeared naked, but were not in a rush to cover themselves at all.

"Tessa, you meddling bitch. Mind your own business, will you? Get the fuck out of here!" Kate cursed her.

"How dare you attack your future Luna?" Tessa answered back with a strong voice.

"Future Luna? Ha! That bitch will never be our Luna.She's not one of us!" Kate shot me a dirty look.

"No, you are the shameless bitch here!" I growled.

"Whatever.It's useless to argue with me.I'm going to kill the both of you today anyway." Kate and her friends turned back into their wolf forms.

The four she-wolves slowly walked toward me and Tessa, eager to tear us to pieces.
