Alphas Choice

MATURE - SLIGHT GORE

I woke, and Gabriel was snoring quietly, I decided to bring him breakfast in bed. I got up and threw on a dress from my closet and tiptoed out of the room. I filled two plates with French toast and bacon, I grabbed some fruit and two coffees, setting it on a tray and carrying it upstairs.

I opened the door and set it on the small table in front of my couch and sat to sip on my coffee. I enjoyed it for another minute, then decided to wake him so his food didn't get cold. I stood and walked to the bed, crawling in on his side. I climbed onto his chest and sat there. His eyes opened and looked next to him before looking up at me, his arms snaking around me, and he pulled me down into a hug.

"Good morning, baby." I said cheerfully. "I brought you French toast and bacon, are you hungry?" I kissed his lips and sat back up, admiring him.

"That would be nice, thank you, little Mate." He stretched and yawned, sitting up kissing my forehead.

He stood carrying me to the couch and set me down before going to his suitcase to grab a pair of jogging pants to throw on. He came back and sat next to me, I pulled the table over so he could reach his food. We sat and enjoyed our breakfast, and I let my mind wander. Today was the day that Cammy and dad would fight. My stomach was in knots, I lost my appetite the more I thought of it, Gabriel must have felt my change in emotions.

"What's wrong, Grace?" He looked concerned as he looked me up and down.

"I'm just nervous about tonight, I don't doubt Cammy in the slightest, but that doesn't mean she won't get hurt." I said quietly. He pulled me into his lap to hold me and ran his hand over my hair until he felt me calm down.

"It will be okay, getting hurt in a battle happens, think of when you and Felix were sparring, you two chewed each other up pretty good...This is a fight of great importance, it will hopefully be over quick."

He held me longer while he ate his food and would place food at my lips that I would absentmindedly eat. I needed to see how Cammy was doing, I tried mind linking, but I couldn't reach her. I tried reaching Myra and couldn't reach her either. What's going on...

Hannah, have you seen Cam this morning?

Yes, her and Myra took off this morning about an hour ago now. Something about a hair appointment?

I can't believe her, I almost laughed. Whenever she was stressed, she usually went to get her hair and nails done. She said it relaxed her. I sighed and got up to find my cell phone. It was in my bag hanging on the closet door.

Cam, call me.

I texted her and went back to sit next to Gabriel.

She didn't call until almost three hours later, saying she had forgotten her phone in the car. They were on their way back. I met them when they arrived, and they each had their hair and nails done. They brought back Wendy's burgers and fries, and the three of us went to her room to eat them. She didn't want to make a fuss about tonight, so we didn't, even if I was dying a little on the inside. We spent the afternoon lounging around, Gabriel met some of the visiting Alphas that came to watch the fight, and the castle grounds were full of wolves from all over.

It was almost sunset when the match was going to take place. Cammy stripped and put on a simple black dress that hugged her curves. She said she didn't care if she ripped this shifting but still wanted to look good. I nervously laughed and was feeling more and more stressed as time went on. Hannah sent word that we needed to be there in ten minutes. I couldn't calm myself down, Camilla seemed fine like it was just another day, but I knew her better and could tell she was nervous.
