Kindle Notes & Highlights

“Many Clecanians do. Before you, I hadn’t purred in a very long time.” He wasn’t sure how to answer her last question. “We purr when we feel…happiness without effort. When we are content.” When we feel whole, he said to himself.
Reaching up, he twined his fingers through the hair at her nape. “You could betray me a hundred times over, and I fear I’d still fall at your feet.”
“You have an amazing body,” she purred. He looked down at himself again, and the corner of his mouth lifted in an unsure smile. She could tell he still thought of himself as ugly but enjoyed her compliments. Her heart tightened in her chest, and she decided she’d need to make sure to compliment him daily to undo the decades of damage.
There was no way he could live without her after experiencing what his life could be like.
If she wouldn’t stay with him and he couldn’t steal her, what would become of him? He whispered, into her hair, “Stay with me.”
“Jade, I want to be with you forever. No more marriages. You’ll be mine and I’ll be yours alone. You are my heart. Do you think you could be happy staying with me forever?”
