“I think you’ve healed him for the same reasons, Kylie,” Nic said gently. “After what happened to him, do you really think he could hand over his trust to another woman easily? Maybe it was somewhat easier for him because he has family who showed him what trust and unconditional love was like, but still, he has no reason to trust a woman.”
