Well, at least he was talking, even if they were angry bitter words. Fallon frowned but still made no move to touch him or leave him to his sorrow. Again, she wondered how anyone thought it prudent to leave him to his devices tonight. The hurt and anger he was obviously struggling to cope with could easily lead to worse things.

Fallon sighed. Nothing she said tonight would break through, of that she was certain. He was too caught up in the horror of the situation. Still, she couldn't resist trying. "It did happen to you, you're right." No use in denying the facts. "But...it was just a faulty hit, Lachlan. The woman wasn't who you were aiming for." Or so she hoped. Merlin, Fallon hoped he didn't confess any ill intent to her.
