I do understand that, Lil’red. But just because he has shown to be sympathetic to her, does not mean he suddenly trusts her. He wanted her spared, I think, because he does believe her when she told him that she loved him, but he still is wary. He saw her almost killed his grandfather in front of him, and then she forced him to come with her or see his friends all killed. She says sorry afterwards, but it could be that he still fears that she could suddenly change.
