Well, that's basically all I wanted to convey in their relationship, well summarized^^*Raises eyebrow*
Not sure what has you so convinced? Brutus was responsible for Leto almost dying and the captain of the guard actually dying in the first expedition, and very clearly chucked him into great danger in the second, to further whatever plan the mystery bad guys have. And he was fucking Alys even before he was rejected by Cyanna.
Well, I mean, that entire scene was just emotional whiplash after emotional whiplash for Cyanna. First, her authority gets completely subverted despite being the highest ranking officer in the Guard and the right hand man of her best friend's political rival gets installed as the leader instead. So she's initially extremely angry/frustrated. Then she finds out said right hand man is her childhood friend who she thought was dead. So she gets whiplashed into surprised, happy and confused. Then the dude reveals his tragic backstory, she gets shoved into guilt. The dude then immediately tries confessing his love for her despite neither of them knowing really who the other person is after so much time, so she's immediately shoved into even more guilt. And that's not even going into the emotional turmoil she's already got regarding her feelings for Leto.
Like, with everything Brutus shoved onto her immediately, there wasn't much time for Cyanna to react with happiness. Brutus is also very shitty at romance apparently, because even if she said yes, he was basically guilt tripping her into saying yes at that point. XD
