She held back sobs. "When he beat me unconscious...and I woke up...I knew I'd-I'd lost it. And I was in pain, but I was relieved. It's why I didn't tell you. I'm a horrible person!" she bursted in sobs, crying into his shoulder.

He blinked, then sighed and wrapped his arms around her gently. "You're not a horrible person, Erin. You're not. You were a scared kid who didn't want an asshole's baby. It's okay, sweetie. It's okay."

"How could it not be! I never should have said anything. If I hadn't , Eli wouldn't have flipped and hired Tristan and Nevada would be fine and I wouldn't be all fucked up..." Zippy wailed, touching her swollen eye.

David pulled her hand away from her face gently. "Sweetie, Joseph and his gang needed to be stopped. Tristan made his own decisions. I'm sure it's not the first time he's caused collateral damage in his line of work. Nevada married him knowing that, I'm sure. It's got nothing to do with us."

Zippy nodded, still crying silently, and cuddled him close.

He nodded, pressing his forehead to hers, meeting her eyes. "Sweetie, I'm so, so sorry for leaving. Can you ever forgive me?"

"Promise me you will quit being jealous of Tristan Shamien." She pressed.

He sighed, and nodded. "It's just...difficult. You loved him. I dunno what happened between you two, but whatever it was...I--if it hadn't happened, would you still be with him?"

Zippy didn't know how to answer that. "I don't know. But I know I love you more. And that I'm glad we broke up because it meant I found you."

David nodded, accepting that answer, and he kissed her on her mouth, gently so he didn't hurt her.
