Sandry! Strangers on the road! Daja screamed in mind talk to her friend who was inside the house. Tris wholeheartedly agreed, watching the group from the roof.

It's Krisanna! She yelled on a line that included only herself, Daja and Sandry.

Who is it? Briar grumpily demanded from his place in Rosethorn's garden.

Kris… Sandry confessed. Briar gasps and jumped up from his seat. He ran down the path to the house and quickly entered the cottage. He ran past Sandry and into his room.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Sandry?" Kris called upon entering Discipline with Neal beside her.

"Hello, Krisanna." Briar called from his room, just beyond the front door.

"Briar…How pleasant…umm…" She started uncomfortably.

"May I have a word in private?" Briar asked, eyeing Neal.

"Umm…sure…Stay here, Neal." She said, following Briar into his room.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Skylar, come here, baby." Briar said, raising his arms to the little girl sitting in the room. Kris looked at her and began to cry. "Meet your momma, Sky."

"Momma?" The little black haired girl with storm gray eyes asked looking at Kris.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Briar watched his child and her mother play and decided it was time to tell Krisanna the truth.

"Krissy? I still love you."
