Viola felt Alpha Daniel's aura beginning to flare, and realized that if someone didn't redirect this conversation soon, it was going to tip into something worse.

"You have a truly lovely home, Alpha Daniel. It reminds me of a French castle." She said, speaking up before either man could take the next step, and she meant it, she was genuinely looking around and admiring the place as she said it.
