They were both angry. Elizabeth tried not to look as exasperated as she was about the whole thing. She understood why Delsin was angry, but she also knew that the situation needed to be diffused before anyone could actually talk.
"Delsin, this is the person who is the only reason I ever got away from the people who locked me away," she said, glancing behind her at him pointedly. She hoped it would explain why he was so protective, as much as she was angry at him for reacting in such an overblown manner. Looking back to Booker, because she knew what was coming from being open about that, she continued, "Yes, he knows about that. He's the one who helped me when those things from home showed up I told you about. I've known him for a few months when he showed up in the city, just like us. And with this reaction, do you really blame me for not introducing you immediately? This is exactly why I didn't know how to talk to you about this."
