Je Suis a Toi (Monsters in the Dark, #3.5)

by Pepper Winters

And I didn’t care what it was, I would do it. Because that was what our marriage was. He took, I gave. I asked, he gifted. We were on a never-ending tug of war where we each took turns to win. But there was no losing. We had far too much happiness to ever lose.

“The truth, Tess. That you own my ass. That you’re the one with all the power.”
