“He said I’d see, and don’t you have a lunch date with your grandfather?” It was later there than it was here. “In an hour, and he expects me to be late.

“Your body is yours. If you let me play with you, if you let me give you pleasure and make you come, that doesn’t give me any more rights to your body than I have at this moment.

“Just—you all do that, tell me to stay.” “Because when you catch a wounded bird, you have to be careful of its wings.” In my closet, I reached up to the top shelf, then tugged the wood bracket to the side and slid it open. Pulling out the box, I carried it over to the bed and set it in front of her. “Wings are delicate things, they can heal, but they can also be re-injured if you aren’t careful.”

“I don’t want you anywhere near our world anymore.” “I don’t think it was ever my world.” That earned me a haughty lift to her chin as she gave me a look. “It is your world.

At the same time, I’m selfish because I’m glad you’re here.” Closing her eyes, Lainey dragged me in for a hug. “I could throttle you,” she said in a voice misty with unshed tears. “I love you.” “I love you, too,” I whispered, clinging to her. “You have saved me so many times.” “Not enough,” she complained and I chuckled. “More than you know.”
