My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift

Chapter 118



Chapter 118

And so she did. Venturing away from the village, while everyone continued the preparations, she

went to see a special guest of honour, Asher's father.

“Buahhahaha!” John burst out laughing.

“Does Asher know you’re here?” He said to her,

“He doesn’t need to! And I’m serious… Come to the Christmas party we’ll be having.” She firmly

spoke.

“Interesting. It looks like Asher has quite the interesting mate. You seem different from before. How

intriguing… But, I don’t think I can make it. Asher wouldn’t appreciate it if I came anyway…”

“That’s not for you to think about. I invited you, so if you aren’t coming for Asher, come for me!”

She persisted.

“And who are you?” He asked.

Roxanne smiled at the question. She had tried to deny it and run from it, but she can't do that

anymore. She accepted it now, her fate.

"The Luna of the Rockwood pack, and your future daughter-in-law.” She said confidently.

John mused as he watched Roxanne leave. It was amusing to see such a girl speak so boldly in

front of him, though he knew she was trembling at a point.

“She must really want me to come, uh? Oh well…” He muttered.

“Looks like you found yourself a good mate, kid…”

[Friday, 25th December ]

The night was magical… The air was clear and the feeling was pure bliss to everyone present. The

glow of the moon was no longer the sole source of light. The fluttering fireflies let their bright-colored

shine, making everything seem unreal.

Roxanne looked around her. The previously sad and downcast werewolves were chattering

happily. It took a great deal of work and effort, but finally, she had achieved it.

The giant Christmas tree was open for everyone to see. It looked stiff and unnatural for a

Christmas tree, but it was perfect. The glow around it and the decorations made all about it made it

appear even more majestic.

The bonfire was very large, causing the flames to rise, as though dancing to the music played by

the wolves who handled the instruments. As the drumbeat and tambourines sounded, the fire swerved

back and forth. Everyone danced, they were elated. They laughed. Roxanne didn't recognize the

dance, it must have been a traditional one. But she laughed as she watched them.

They are to their fill, drunk to their fill. Roxanne could only take one cup, afterward deciding that

she had had enough. This was no night to get drunk.

As she watched the celebrations continue, someone approached her. It was Asher.

“Hey…” He smiled as he moved even closer, stretching his hands to her.

“Want to dance?”

She laughed softly as she took his hand and moved closer to him as well. They moved closer to

the bonfire and made a space for themselves among the other dancers there.

As they walked there, Asher looked at Roxanne, who also returned the gesture, they laughed as

their eyes met.

“I-I saw my dad… He was just standing at a corner and watching us. He probably thinks he is

being cool by hiding there, but… He's just embarrassing himself.” Asher chuckled.

Roxanne also laughed at his words, though she feared that he might disapprove of John's

presence.

“I know you were the one who invited him… Thank you, Roxanne” He smiled.

“F-For what?” She said with a short laugh.

"For this… For everything. You really thought things through. Initially, I didn't buy into all of this, but

you really pulled this off… I'm impressed, amazed even. And I finally understand the reasons behind

your intentions. The pack is better off this way." He smiled.

Roxanne blushed as he said this.

They finally settled on the dance floor. Roxanne hoped for a slow dance, the kind of romantic one

she usually saw in movies or read in books, where everyone disappeared, except the dancer and their

partner. She couldn't be more wrong.

Everyone around Roxanne and Asher stopped dancing, a lot leaving the dancing area as they

made room for them.

“W-What is happening?” Roxanne asked, flustered by their sudden reaction.

"Heh, it's only natural. Everyone wants to witness this… As the king and queen dance before them

under the night sky.

Before Roxanne could respond, the beats suddenly changed and the tempo of the music started to

rise. The sounds increased as the beat got faster and wilder. The spectators started to clap their hands

in a joint rhythm. It was now fast-paced.

“Can you keep up?” Asher smirked.

He moved away from her and began his dance, jumping and swerving his body in action-filled

dancing.

Roxanne's jaw dropped as she saw him making such crazy movements. She could never imagine

the stern and awkward Asher pulling off such an impressive dance. He kept his eyes focused on her as

he gave her a sexy look, calling her to join him, though it could also be that he was taunting her.

The claps became louder and everyone began to cheer as they watched Asher show off his

moves.

“Oh, now you’re asking for it!” Roxanne said, feeling challenged.

She suddenly jumped and made a twist in the air. She landed on her feet and started to make

rapid movements with her fear, beating her hands on her body as they made slapping sounds. She

turned her face back and forth, swerving her body in sync with the rhythm.

Asher's eyes widened when he saw Roxanne's moves. Not only Asher was stunned. Rita, Dax, NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Damien, Lenard, Larry… Everyone watched with shocked expressions. Suddenly the claps stopped

and the cheers. They were all too dumbfounded to do anything but watch as Roxanne was lost in her

dance. Even Asher stopped his dance and watched as she energetically kept moving her body.

Her eyes were closed now as she removed her focus from everyone and only focused on her

movements and enjoying the moment.

She did this for so long that she didn't even need sounds or music. She moved to the beats made

by her pounding heart. Sweat appeared on her body, but she didn't stop.

Finally, with a majestic pose, she finished her dance. She opened her eyes slowly as she wanted,

realising everywhere had fallen silent. No beat, no ringing, no cheers or chaos. Everyone was staring at

her with amazement.

“Did I overdo it…?!” She panicked.

However, before she could complete her thought, a roar of cheers burst forth from everyone as

they clapped thunderously. The loud noise covered the entire village as they kept clapping for

Roxanne. Asher admitted his loss… She did more than keep up with him. She overtook him.

“How did she learn to dance like that?” Asher muttered to himself
