“I want to be your first choice. And maybe Iāve never made it clear that I am a choice for you. I like you, and if you let me, I know I could love you. My title might not be as fancy as Kalliasās, nor my pocketbook quite as deep, nor my estate quite so large.
āBut my heart is bigger, Alessandra. And I would love you completely, wholly, as a woman ought to be loved. I wonāt hide behind shadows. I wonāt love you from afar. I wonāt only take parts of you. I want all of you. Mind, body, soul. I want to be with you. Always.”
