Noma happily agrees to play at being an Auntie, and I can hear Rose's approval. Noma looks about, and offers to introduce Rose around.
"I won't go out of your sight, I promise." I wave my hand and smile warmly. "I'm sure she'll be quite fine, no worries." After all, I am sure Rose will let me know if something happens that upsets her. "You be a good girl." I tell my daughter, waggling my finger at her.
Once Noma wanders away, I turn back to Jane. "I have no exclusive claim to Dorian, if that's what you're worried about." I say calmly, taking a sip of my cider.
