Bit late, though I hope you still see it.

Gustus did not kill Lexa. COMPLETE OPPOSITE! Gustus poisoned himself to break the alliance with the Sky People because he thought it would result in Lexa's death. Gustus' care for Lexa was huge. Even that little bit before he died: 'Stay Strong'. He said it because he knew it hurt her to kill him, but she had to look strong in front of everyone else. And of course, stay strong so she can stay alive.

Lexa is like a God to most of these people and they'd protect her with their life. I love that.
