T'ryn wrapped his arms around Cazan, waiting a moment to let her get comfortably sprawled atop him before digesting his words. He just wanted to hold his mate, and nor have either of them worry about anything else. He felt they were getting closer to that moment but he still had a few things to say and make sure everything was clear between them. He didn't want anymore secrets in their relationship and since he was confident they were all on his side, he was going to air them out. Most of them. A blonde one could stay hidden away but that wasn't anything of concern now anyway.
"Thank you for saying that. I was hoping to maybe visit her sometimes but only if you were okay with it. No more secret lovers. In fact, I haven't had any in about a year. You're so open with yours and I treated mine as something I was ashamed of and it wasn't fair to anyone." He often returned home from one of those hook ups utterly ashamed of himself and the guilt only grew because of Cazan's trust in him. He had risked so much with his stupidity and he didn't want to continue down that path.
"Zelana was a secret lover. A'tay didn't know for a while either. And now I slept with his best friend he's always had a special love for." It pained him to say that all out loud, knowing how bad it made him look to the one he loved so much. But he had to say it. No more secrets and...well, less guilt at least. "I'm not a very good brother," T'ryn added in a whisper, that shame cropping up on him. It stung the most because of how A'tay had taken it. "He knew. We were reckless and he caught on but waited until one of us told him. I eventually did and he was disappointed it took so long and said he wouldn't have cared since he knows he's one of Zelana's lovers. Then I was too ashamed to tell you."
He let out a slow breath, knowing he had one more thing to say, even though Cazan had already stated she had no interest. But what if that had been the guilt talking and she didn't want to upset him again after his initial confession? "Being with the women he's interested in has made me get over most of my insecurities and want to encourage you to spend time with him if you're ever interested. Xyxyth will want to spend time with Mal when she's on the Sands and I won't stop you two from passing the time together. If he makes you happy like Kor'is and Yfris do, I'll welcome him into the club."
