Gabe was surprised to find Angel leaving him in such a brisk manner. For a moment, he wondered what he had done to chase her off in such an angry huff. It took him a second to realize that it was not anger, but determination, that led her away from him and outside. Uh oh... he thought. Someone is going to get an earful. He followed, though much slowly, not entirely sure he wanted to see what was about to go down. It was like a train wreck in that sense. Messy, but you just couldn't look away from it. He found himself standing out in the driveway as Angel was posting up in front of the Detective.
Previously, the man might have regarded her like a kitten, cute when it got all fluffed up and started hissing. Now, though... now he knew that she was no cat, no dog, but a wolf... and likely just as deadly and terrifying as the rest of them. He blinked, shocked speechless, as she unleashed her lecture upon him and soon turned it toward Vivian. He was actually more surprised that Vivian didn't bark back. He knew how she could get, but it seemed even she wasn't ballsy enough to get into a cat fight with this little ball of fury.
"Look," he said, holding his hands up defensively. "If I had it my way, this afternoon will consist of little more than sitting on a park bench and guessing what the clouds look like as they roll by, okay? I don't want anything to happen just as badly, actually probably more, as you." He honestly probably would've rather pissed off the cartel.
"Down, girl." Gabe, who had appeared by Angel's side, said gently. "Save some of that energy for the big bad wolf."
He was quick to give her a kiss on the lips before she could scold him for interrupting her scolding of the detective and the PI. The twins were loaded into their seats and showered with kisses from Elise who was very reluctant to see them go. When she stood up straight, Daniel was looking at her almost similarly to how he had looked at her before he found out what she was. Almost like he was seeing her as a human being again. Almost, but not quite.
"I won't let anything happen to them, 'Lise." He said with a nod. Mostly because he preferred to keep his head attached to his neck, but also because it was Elise, and he figured he owed her at least that much.
The she wolf gave a nod, but could only stand there and say nothing. She couldn't even close the door to the car, and had to let James be the one to do it instead. His resolve was a bit more resolute than hers after all. When they were finally pulling out of the driveway, it was all she could do to keep her inner wolf quiet, when all she wanted to do was howl in misery.
