Amycus nodded mutely at Bella's question about Rab wanting to join. She was voicing some of the same concerns that he was having. "I appreciate that Bella. And I'm certain that Rab will also," he said decisively. He thought for a moment before answering Bella's next question.
"I want to say yes. He's my best friend and I want him to be there with me. With us. But I'm not really sure that he can. But he wants to do this Bella," he said, hating himself for the urgent pleading he heard in his voice.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before continuing. "He wants to join Bella. And I'm willing to guarantee that any task he's given is completed," he said, not telling her that he'd do the job himself if he had too.
