“No.” Sarai took the phone back. “Family weird.”
Saniya nodded. “That makes sense.”
Sarai typed.
Sarai:
Thank you for saying it plainly.
She paused.
Then continued.
Sarai:
You are not confusing me. I know what we are not. I also know Silver Crest became part of me in ways that did not end with the release.
The reply came after a minute.
Darius:
That means more than I can say.
Sarai:
Do not make me manage your emotions, Alpha Vale.
Darius:
Yes, ma’am.
Sarai laughed softly.
Sarai:
But I accept the protection. From the right place.
Darius:
Then you have it.
Sarai looked at those words for a long moment.
Then typed:
Sarai:
Tell Danica I am proud of her.
Darius:
She is standing beside me pretending not to read over my shoulder.
Sarai:
Tell her I said that is rude.
