“Don’t go,” he murmured hoarsely, fitfully, a man caught in a fever-dream. “I won’t bring up the rebels again. I won’t breathe another word. Just—don’t leave me, Tala.”
MY HEART
“I couldn’t kill that rebel.” It was a choked, bewildered rumble in her ear. “One word from you and I let my guard down. I couldn’t kill you, either, all those times before . . . What am I, if I’m not a weapon? What have you done to me?”
:((((((
a wife he had already inconveniently orgasmed with?
That is such an interesting sentence
Talasyn flashed Alaric a small, hopeful smile. “Pretty, isn’t it?” Strands of chestnut hair had spilled loose from her braid and were blowing in the wind. The sun brought out the gold in her eyes and danced atop the freckles on her softly rounded cheeks. He was looking at her when he said, “Yes.”
Such a cliche but i love itttt
“First of all,” he said through gritted teeth, “I don’t know how to react to you. You are infuriating and self-righteous and you get under my skin. Secondly, there have never been any other women—there was never anyone before you—and much to my dismay you have provoked me so much that you’ve wormed your way into my dreams. You are the only one who plagues them. And one last thing”—his voice lowered into a growl—“the next time I kiss you, I want to remember it.”
AHHHHHHHHH
“It doesn’t have to be a big deal, Talasyn.”
Istg if they do the "pleasure for the sake of pleasure" deal im gonna crash out
“This,” Alaric continued, “doesn’t have to be anything more than it is. There is obviously an attraction between us. While that does move our marriage beyond the merely political, I don’t believe there would be much harm in acting on it from time to time. Until the attraction runs its course.”
NOOOOOO
So why not? came that inner voice, dark and treacherous. If he’s going to hate you anyway, why not take your pleasures while you can?
NOOOOOOO
“I don’t know,” she muttered. “You might end up falling in love with me.”
YES. FALL IN LOVE W HER.
