There is no such thing as a dipeptide bond. A peptide bond is formed by the condensation of a carboxyl (-COOH) group with an amine (NH2) group. The amine group of serine can form a peptide bond with the carboxyl group of an other amino acid to form a dipeptide. Or the carboxyl group of serine can form a peptide bond with the amine group of another amino acid to form a dipeptide. Of course, it can do both and you get a tripeptide with two peptide bonds but this is not a dipeptide bond.

the carboxyl group will bond to a amine group of another amino acid. this is how all amino acids bond to one another.
