Struggling a bit to make his body relax enough to draw in air, now that the pressure was gone, he finally managed it, but it was still a few moments before he could find his voice, and he was ashamed it trembled a bit. But the anger that had driven him just a few weeks before had dissolved too much, and now he was just...lost.
"I know, yes," he managed to get out, after he dragged in another breath. "But I don't know what you're talking about. I haven't...I haven't lied to you. I'm not trying to use you..." And from his point of view, he wasn't. He was struggling to figure out what to do in this situation, to protect all three of them, and, yes, he didn't want to eradicate Nathan--it hurt too much to think about--but he hadn't wanted to eradicate him either, and what the fuck was he supposed to do? He didn't have anyone to guide him, no one to turn to for help, no one he could trust.
