Kept Mate (COMPLETED)

Ch. 22 - Stay rooted

Fun fact: I almost ran out of ideas.

Thank goodness, I have managed to finish this chapter.

Enjoy 😆

---------------------------

The staring contest ended.

And I must admit, it feels incomplete now that he didn't look at me again.

I looked at the room filled with mates united. They looked happy...

They looked complete and contented.

I took another glass of red wine. Why would I limit myself if there's an unlimited supply of this heavenly drinks?

I took a bottle instead, making the waiters gasped. I just glared at them.

I make my way back to the terrace. Gladly, everybody's dancing. I snorted. I don't care about mates.

I'm fine being alone for almost 5 years now. His absence won't tear me down.

I noticed Bruno making his way towards me, with another glass of red wine in hand.

I smiled at him. At least he'll keep me company. My drink buddy.

"Hey, Bruno."

He smiled back. "Hey, princess. Our mate's not around. Guess Goddess wants us to hang out."

Though his statement is quite untrue. I still nodded and agrees at him. Our mates are not around, well in my case, he's around but not as a mate who'll take me seriously.

I drink straight a full glass of red wine, bottoms up. Thank Goddess they tasted like grapes.

Bruno chuckled. Drinking a glass full as well.

"Are you sure you want to stay rooted here with me? I'm planning to get wasted now. I'll be back to reality tomorrow so I must as well enjoy this night."

He tilted his head. "Back to reality? Why is that?"

I shrugged. "Well, isn't it too early to listen to dramas? Comeon, drink with ne instead."

"If that's the case, allow me to get another 4 bottles of wine then let's drink the night away."

I grinned. "You're Alpha will be pissed."

"I already informed him."

I shrugged. "The I guess you have yourself a Deal."

"Don't miss me too much, princess."

I arched a brow. "You wish."

Get ready tummy, we'll drink the night away.
