Sierra knew a thing or two about guild. "That's the thing with guilt. It makes you doubt the facts. Did you pull the trigger?" She didn't wait for an answer. "You told your mother, and she obviously kept the secret until it was beyond her control. She loved you still. It's not your fault." Sierra sighed and stared at the fire. "I was there the day my brother got killed. I watched the man with the snake tattoo murder him in cold blood. I felt guilty for years why did I live and he didn't? And again when Tristan killed my father. He didn't do it himself but sent others to do his bidding because he'd hurt me. We can't control what others do with the knowledge they have. You have to learn to forgive yourself."
