“To get what you want, you have to know exactly how much you are willing to give up.”

“That’s right, I’m still captured,’ said Damen.
‘Your eyes say, “For now,”’ Laurent said. ‘Your eyes have always said, “For now.”

“Because a king maker would always choose the weaker man. The weaker the man, the easier he is to control.”

“Stop enjoying yourself," Damen murmured. "We're going to be killed, any minute."
"Giant animal," said Laurent.
"Stop it.”

“It felt, in all the lies between them, as if this was the only true thing.”

“It felt, in all the lies between them, as if this was the only true thing.”

From the severe, straight-backed posture to the impersonal grace of his cupped yellow head; from his detached blue eyes to the arrogance of his cheekbones, Laurent was complicated and contradictory, and Damen could look nowhere else.

The warm, sweet kiss had been broken in a moment of promise: the first slight parting of lips, the hint that Laurent had been on the cusp of allowing the kiss to deepen, though his body had been singing with tension. When he closed his eyes, he felt how it might have happened: slowly, Laurent’s mouth opening, Laurent’s hands lifting hesitantly to touch his body. He would have been careful, so careful.

‘You want to take me, as a man takes a boy.’
‘As a man takes a man,’ said Damen. ‘I want to take pleasure in you, and to please your body with mine.’
He said it with soft honesty. ‘I want to come inside you.’ The words rose, like this feeling within him. ‘I want you to come in my arms.’
‘You make it sound simple.’
‘It is simple.’

Stirring drowsily, Laurent shifted a fraction closer and made a soft, unthinking sound of pleasure that Damen was going to remember for the rest of his life.

“To get what you want, you have to know exactly how much you are willing to give up.”

“To get what you want, you have to know exactly how much you are willing to give up.”

JUST MAGNIFICENT, I’m dead!!.!!

Slow burn at its finest!

“It was like being alone in a pit with a snake: the snake could relax, you could not.”

“Laurent got only two words out before the man simply did what most people wanted to do when speaking with Lau

JUST MAGNIFICENT, I’m dead!!.!!

“It was like being alone in a pit with a snake: the snake could relax, you could not.”

“Laurent got only two words out before the man simply did what most people wanted to do when speaking with Laurent: he hit him.”

“That man had laid hands on Laurent, and Damen was going to kill him.”

“You’re mine, he wanted to say, and couldn’t. Laurent didn’t belong to him; this was something he could have only once.”

“What had happened was not going to be threatened by anything or anyone”

“I lack," said Laurent, "the easy mannerisms that are usually shared with," you could see him pushing the words out, "a lover."
"You lack the easy mannerisms that are usually shared with anyone," said Damen.
