Luana stopped in her steps at Anders words, staring at him in disbelief. It truly came as a shock, and she was incapable of hiding that. He had spoken so passionately before about coming out to everyone in the pack, and wanting things out in the open. Luana had been truly convinced that he had meant every word. Especially after all that had happened and the time he had spent apart from Ronan, she would have thought he would have wanted nothing more than to no longer hide his secret.
"Anders..." She began before falling silent, uncertain really of what to say. His mind had changed so quickly and so firmly, she wasn't sure any amount of convincing him back onto the path he once chose would actually work. She lowered the collection of wood onto the forest floor and stepped across to him, reaching a hand out to grasp his arm and pull him back to face her.
Her gaze flickered worriedly over him, not liking this sudden, pessimistic view that he had regarding probably the biggest announcement of his life, "Anders... has somethin' happened? Have you... have you an' Ronan had a fight or somethin'? Is that why you're... questionin' all this now?" She asked, not understanding how he could have made such a drastic change in beliefs, "Cause, y'know, you guys... you both deserve to live like a proper family, not hidin' in secrecy and stealin' kisses at night. It ain't fair on either of you, neither is it fair on Teddy."
She knew she probably was the last one to talk about what was fair and what wasn't, after keeping Tala and Tate apart for two years because of her own fears. But Anders had only just last night been talking about his future out in the open with Ronan.
"You can't let the pack get to you on this. It's cause of them you lost two years with Ronan as it is... don't... don't let them steal any more years from you." Luana's hand slipped down from his arm to take hold of his hand, "Besides, don't you think... don't you think you ought to let Ronan decide for himself what he does and doesn't wanna be subjected to? He loves you, Anders... I'm sure he'd walk on flaming coals for ya."
She tried to lighten things towards the end, but she knew it would be difficult, especially considering what they were talking about. She hated hearing how little Anders thought of himself. First Daisy and now Anders. It was heart breaking to realise that her loved ones were beating themselves down in the way they were and she hadn't been there to stop it.
"I just... I want you to be happy and... and in the long run, will you be happy? Livin' in secret like you're sayin' you will?"
