Castle might as well have stuck a knife in him and twisted it. There were so many questions. How did Jones kill the psychopath twice in the time he saw her last, walking out of the bar in Hell's Kitchen and telling her she had a friend in Harlem? Just how long had he been in Mesa, Arizona? Luke didn't recall nightfall before arriving in the red cloud of dust. Tears collected in his eyes and threatened to fall but somehow he held them back.
It wasn't as if Luke didn't know the truth about Reva, but that didn't mean she deserved to die--much less place that guilt on Jessica. What had happened to him in Seagate was one thing. Kilgrave had violated Jessica in ways that were unspeakable, Luke only barely getting a taste. He didn't realize that he'd been shaking his head the entire time Frank spoke. The clutch on his shirt hadn't released but did loosen.
One last shake of his head in disbelief and Luke finally let go. ]
I...
[ Luke swallowed thickly, bringing his hand to his face and roughly wiping down over it. He wouldn't give in to the emotion that came to the surface. His eyes picked up from the floor to where they fell and stared numbly at Frank. ]
There's no death here so he gets to play his sick games over and over. And Jessica has to deal with it? What fresh hell is this?
[ Kilgrave wouldn't be the only one Luke would stay away from. He couldn't imagine Jones would want to see him with the reminder constantly around of what had happened between them. It dawned on him as he finished speaking that Castle seemed to know a lot. He suddenly felt the urge to straighten up and give the appearance of having himself together, even if it was a lie. ]
