Bringing Her to the Banquet

Serenity finally came out of the fitting room. Gabriel caught a glimpse of the lake-green dress from the corner of his eye and looked up at her. His calm eyes started to waver.

The dress was an off-shoulder dress with its hem cut short in the front, revealing Serenity's knees, while the back part reached her delicate ankles. The color of the dress complemented her fair skin well, especially when the light reflected off her shoulders and collarbone.

Her ponytail had been let down, leaving her seaweed-like hair trailing lustrously down her back. She was truly a charming sight for sore eyes.

Gabriel narrowed his eyes slightly, put down the magazine in his hand, and stood up. "Not bad, we'll take it."

As he spoke, he had already pulled his card out of his wallet. When the saleswoman noticed it was a black card, her eyes widened as she received it with a smile. She swiped it through the card terminal, not needing any verification of identity from Gabriel.
