Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games novel Chapter 181

“Don’t know what I was thinking. Jesus Christ, I’ve never even been on a date before, what the hell

am I doing?”

Cole Anderson sat down beside me and patted me on the back. “We got you.”

“Is this a casual date or a formal one?” A bloke I didn’t know, but had seen at the bar before, asked.

“I dunno. It’s just a date.”

They all stared at me in disbelief.

“Okay, Elise Westin, right?” the guy asked.

I nodded my confirmation.

“She’ll want to dress up fancy,” Cole informed me.

“What?”

“She’s going to look nice. Probably wear a pretty dress for you. Means you gotta take her somewhere

nice.” He looked around. “Definitely nicer than this place.”

“Hey,” Jesse chimed in. “Plenty of people find this place great for a date.”

“Not for a first date with your one true mate,” Cole pointed out, to which Jesse conceded.

“I know a place. Down the mountain, bout forty minutes. Italian. Nice place. Expensive.”

“I don’t care what it costs. If that’s what you think she’d like.”

“You talking about Roberto’s?” Cole asked.

“Yes, exactly.”

“Yeah, that’s a really nice place. You’ll need a suit and tie.”

“Bloody hell, you’ve got to be kidding me.”

They all laughed.

“If you’re going to do it, do it right,” Cole encouraged.

“Yeah, okay. Do I need a reservation?”

“Can’t hurt. I’ll call ‘em right now.”

Cole grabbed the phone from his hand as it started ringing through. “Bernie, why don’t you let me

take care of that.”

The man named Bernie just waved him off, but didn’t make a move to take his phone back. “Pint of

Gat for me and me lad,” Bernie told Jesse, smacking the bar.

I left the bar to run home and change in plenty of time to pick up Elise. I was actually nervous. I worried I was overdressed and cursed myself for listening to the guys at the bar. It was too late to turn back now. Taking a deep breath, I knocked on the door to the Westin house.

Jason Westin answered the door. Former alpha of the Westin Pack, but even more intimidating,

Elise’s father.

“Good evening sir,” I said, offering my hand, which he took and shook firmly.

“Patrick,” he said, looking me over. “You clean up nice. Come on in.”

“Thanks,” I said, breathing a sigh of relief that he didn’t seem to think I was too overdressed. “Elise

will be down in a

Vinute.”

I stood awkwardly in the foyer with no idea what to do or say. I was so far out of my comfort zone. It wasn’t that I wasn’t trained to deal in social settings, just that those situations were directed towards business. Dressing up and taking my mate to a pack dinner or holiday party, sure, that made sense. It had a purpose. Just because? It didn’t make sense to me and I didn’t like feeling out of place.I rocked back on my heels with my hands clasped behind my back, waiting and wondering where the hell Elise was and how long she was going to leave me down here to suffer.

“Dude,” Chase said, coming from the living room and shaking my hand formally. “Sweet thread Hey, Liam, get your ass in here and check this out.”

Jason glared at him as Mary Westin entered with a scowl. “Language, Chase.”

“Sorry, Mom.”

“Whoa. Look at you!” Liam grabbed my hand and with his other arm gave me a bro hug. “Where
