Gavin released his grip on his mother. I saw the red mark on her wrist, though I knew it would heal in minutes, I still shivered at the thought that Gavin had hurt his mother enough to leave a mark. He was pissed, despite the apology. His wolf was still so pent up over the fact that his mother hurt me enough to draw blood; I could feel the anxiety and the anger continuing to roll off him.

I knew I needed to do something, so I placed my hand on his back, feeling his rigid shoulders.

"Hey," I said softly. "I'm okay. Just sit down with me."

I felt him relaxing slightly, though his eyes remained trained on his mother. I ran my fingers down his back and touched his hand, entwining my fingers with his.

"Please, Gavin," I whisper. "Just sit down."

After a pause, Gavin finally lowered himself back onto the couch beside me.

"Y... yes, ma'am," Matilda said and darted from the room without another word.
