Now he was consumed by the very things he had tried to protect her from. You won't Haven. Those words had come from others, but he was more able to believe them coming from her lips. She was his sister, his best friend. If anyone knew him, it was Mati. Still...she didn't know what he knew.
When she asked for him to tell her he hesitated. Look what that knowledge had done to him. He didn't want the same fate to befall her. Even if he couldn't go on living his life didn't mean she couldn't. Ignorance had been bliss. But at the same time, didn't she have a right to know? That blood flowed in her veins as much as his'. Would telling her better prepare her against things? Haven didn't know the best road to take, but she was holding out a hand for him to grasp and he needed that desperately. "He raped her...he raped mom..." It was out now, there was no taking it back.
