Lust simply gaped, confused, her mind struggling with the non sequitur. What was he even talking about? Why was he....
Slowly, her mind supplied the answer to exactly what he was asking about. Her face and shoulders fell, a tight coldness grabbing her around her middle. Her stomach twisted. She had that feeling of the strength going out of her, but this wasn't even the slightest bit pleasant. It was all sick dread.
She didn't even know how he'd found out, but she supposed this was the reason for his silence. She looked down at her hands, gripping them tightly together. When was the past going to leave them alone? It was gone, done and buried, it didn't matter here! Yet there it was, again, leaping out from the shadows behind to claw at them and drag them down.
"As far as I know."
She didn't know what else to say. Besides the obvious.
