Chapter 7: Chapter 6 Do, A Deer

A knock on my bedroom door made me stop spinning in my place and turn around to look at it.

It took me only a couple of strides to reach and open it, revealing a frantic looking Gabrielle.

"What's going on April? Is everything okay? Are you okay? Did they find out?" She bombarded me with questions all at once as she marched up inside my room.

"Calm down Gabrielle please." I pleaded.

I, myself was nervous, so she being like that too didn't help.

"Okay, sorry. But you're okay right?" She asked as she sat down on my mattress.

I sighed deeply. "I'm fine, but I don't know if everything else will be." I replied.

Gabrielle said nothing as she continued staring at me in anticipation, waiting for me to continue.

I took in a deep breath, closed my eyes and spoke quickly.

"I found my mate."

Gabrielle gasped loudly, and without me opening my eyes, I could clearly imagine her expression.

"You... you... you what?!" She stuttered before asking.
