[Mallory, Cilan, and the wolves are outside. XD]
Gavotte had been awake since mayhem broke out. He was backed against a corner, trying to keep silent so he wouldn't be noticed. He had no powers that could help him fight. As a native-born Windwoods boy, he was never trained for combat either. It was the women of the village who protected everyone, and now even Cadence had fallen.
He looked up as his best friend Jennifer ran to him, and he breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness you're here," he said with a calm smile, despite the violence raging all around him. "My sister Gwen snapped and I'm just trying to stay out of the way. I hope my parents will be okay."
He looked with concern at his unconscious father, who didn't seem to be breathing. Tacet needed sunlight to survive, and Alastair's curse of eternal darkness wasn't ideal for him. Gavotte's mother Cadence was being either healed or murdered by Rowan. Gavotte couldn't tell from here.
And his sister was still trying to kill everybody.
Cyprian scowled at Gwen. "You do that one more time and I'll break you in half," he threatened. Then he nodded at Jaai. This was definitely not a good place for him to be.
"Let's get out of here," he scowled and walked out the door. It was already broken anyway.
"I knew you would win," said Cilan with a grin. There was no way she would lose to any mortal werewolf. "Anyway... want to go back to the mansion? I'm sure everyone will be missing us."
