“There's something about the beginning of a journey that fills me with hope.”
Maya Cross, Lockout

Maya Cross, Lockout
“Love was supposed to be a connection that triumphed over everything else. I tried to convince myself that it was just a ploy, a desperate, last ditch attempt to save what we had. But the pain in his eyes had been so real, the conviction in his voice so strong. It didn't make any sense.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“Everything you saw was real, Sophia. I'm a lot of things, things that might not be easy to understand, but I'm also the same man I was a few days ago. The man who danced with you and held you and felt so impossibly lucky to wake up next to you. The man who thinks he's falling in love with you.”

“not every dominant is the same. I have to be in control in the bedroom, that will never change, but we're not all leather wearing, paddle wielding machines. Don't get me wrong, I love a little kink when the mood is right, but truth be told, I think I often used that really hardcore persona as a kind of shield. It was always much easier to keep distance between my partners and I when I was playing a role. But with you, I just want to get as close as possible.”
Maya Cross, Lockout

Maya Cross, Lockout
“For the first time, I could be completely unashamed of the way he made me feel. That was a truly glorious prospect.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“The smile on his face when he opened his eyes said that he felt the same.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“He hung his head. "I want to. I really do. But you don't know what you're asking. You terrify me, Sophia. I've never felt so consumed by another person before. And every time we see each other, it's like I lose another piece of myself in you. You criticise me for thinking too much, but the truth is, around you I don't think. I just do. I have no control. I'm sorry if I freaked out, but I don't know how to deal with that.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“This is the realest thing I know, Sophia.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“There are lots of things I want to share with you, but sharing isn't easy for me. You deserve someone who can give you everything, and I'm afraid if we go any further, I'm going to disappoint you.”
Maya Cross, Lockout
“This is what it is to submit, Sophia," he said. "To put your pleasure in the hands of another and trust that they'll take care of you.”
