"How dare you!"
Gabriel shouted, rising from the ground with his hand ablaze in a fierce icy glow.
Alec, on the other hand was already prepared for any potential attack, as he summoned his tattoos and was transforming them into his Salamander armor set.
But before they could clash, Grace stepped in between them, placing her hands on Gabriel and causing his spells to dissipate as if they were never cast.
A smile remained on Grace's face as she looked at her brother.
"You don't want to mess up now, do you?" She drew closer, whispering something in Gabriel's ear, a smile still playing on her lips.
Alec strained to hear, but the words escaped him.
All he knew was that Gabriel no longer had any intention of attacking.
Gabriel snorted and turned his gaze elsewhere, prompting Alec to retract his armor set, feeling the imminent danger had passed.
