Kindle Notes & Highlights
But if death or danger came to him at her fingertips... he would go willingly.
He needed to know if the ink and parchment had seeped into her blood, her love of books something he could taste.
“Time is only fleeting if you feel as though you have been wasting it,”
The woman in her was pressing her thighs together, trying to remind herself that showing off his library was not a form of foreplay... ... Okay, no, there was no point in lying to herself. This was definitely foreplay.
“A bookshelf can take you anywhere. A library can take you everywhere.”
“A book can take you somewhere,” Rosamund said suddenly, her head tilted to the side. “A bookshelf can take you anywhere. A library can take you everywhere.”
“My attraction to you is limitless. I crave you intellectually, yes, but also carnally. I would know your body, every soft dip, every sound you make, every desire you hold, ever...”
Everything that is mine will soon be yours. And you... you will be mine, in all ways, for all eternity.”
“Oh, yes. My jaw will be quite the throne for you. I long to feel your thighs on either side of my head, gripping me. You will always be welcome to sit on it.”
“You forget, my dear, that I am dead. I don’t breathe. You can sit on my face for hours, without pause, cumming on my tongue over and over again until you cannot move. And even then, I’ll still devour you.”
Your body will only know my touch when I am finished, but I shall never truly be finished with you. I will spend the rest of eternity between your thighs and in your bed. Do you understand?”
