“I like to think I m not stupid often, tonight proves that when I am, I do it in a big way.”
“To have to perform a scene, a punishment scene like that, was extremely unpleasant. It bothered me to hurt you, Jessica,” he growled. “You will let me hold you, and offer me some comfort in return.”
“I was Mrs. Taylor yesterday.” I grin at Taylor, who flushes. “That has a nice ring to it, Miss Steele,” Taylor says matter-of-factly. “I thought so, too.” Christian tightens his hold on my hand, scowling. “If you two have quite finished, I’d like a debrief.” He glares at Taylor, who now looks uncomfortable, and I cringe inwardly. I have overstepped the mark. “Sorry,” I mouth at Taylor, who shrugs and smiles kindly before I turn to follow Christian. “I’ll be with you shortly. I just want a word with Miss Steele,” Christian says to Taylor, and I know I’m in trouble. Christian leads me into his bedroom and closes the door. “Don’t flirt with the staff, Anastasia,” he scolds. I open my mouth to defend myself—then close it again, then open it. “I wasn’t flirting. I was being friendly—there is a difference.” “Don’t be friendly with the staff or flirt with them. I don’t like it.” Oh. Good-bye, carefree Christian. “I’m sorry,” I mutter and stare down at my fingers. He hasn’t made me feel like a child all day. Reaching down he cups my chin, pulling my head up to meet his eyes. “You know how jealous I am,” he whispers. “You have no reason to be jealous, Christian. You own me body and soul.”
“We fell into each other’s arms and kissed like we were coming up for air after being underwater for days. The melding of our mouths was sweeter than oxygen. We took huge, deep gulps of each other as we struggled with worldly constraints like clothing and gravity, seeking to transcend it all in our coming together.”
“...I know that if you ask me to jump I will say how high. So I will stay away from you and hope that you never ever say jump.”
“(...) before they actually admit to the big L word. Love or lust - what s the big, damn deal? You re going to fuck either way, right?”
“He moves suddenly so that his hand is cupping my sex, and one of his fingers sinks slowly into me. His other arm holds me firmly in place around my waist. I suppress my moan. This is mine, he whispers aggressively. All mine. Do you understand? He eases his finger in and out as he gazes down at me, gauging my reaction, his eyes burning. Yes, yours,”
“—Te miro, cielo, y deseo tenerte con todas mis fuerzas. Quiero estar contigo, escucharte, hablar contigo. Quiero oírte reír y abrazarte cuando llores. Quiero sentarme a tu lado, respirar el mismo aire, compartir contigo la vida misma. Quiero despertarme contigo así todos los días de mi vida. Quiero tenerte.”
“-Por ti yo haría que el mundo dejara de dar vueltas.”
“Después de todo lo que Gideon y yo habíamos pasado, lo que seguíamos pasando, todo lo que él había hecho por mí... era más difícil desconfiar que creer.”
“I want the possibility of forever wrapped in a hundred million moments. I want us.”
“If you can think of your lover in six senses, then I d say you re nailed. They ve got themselves wrapped around your heart. And your cock. (...) Six senses? (...) Sight, sound, taste, scent, touch, and the other, that thing you can t figure out that means everything. ”
“In about three seconds, I m going to pick you up and carry you into your bedroom, strip your clothes from your body, and bury myself so deep inside of you.” He leaned in toward her. “So deep, you re gonna scream. It s going to be fast and hard, and it will hurt, but when I start, there will be nothing—and I mean nothing—that will be able to stop me…”
“-Tú no me perderías nunca,cielo-me aseguró-.Dondequiera que vayas,por lejos que sea,allí estaré yo contigo.”
“Era un milagro haberlo encontrado, que pudiera hacerme sentir así, que pudiese amar a un hombre de una forma tan profunda, completa y sexual con todo el bagaje que arrastraba. Y que pudiese ofrecerle a cambio el mismo refugio.”
“No puedo dejar de ser quien soy y no quiero que tú lo hagas tampoco. Sólo quiero que seamos lo que somos... juntos.”
“It d be a shame for that beautiful naked body to go to waste, he murmured as he walked over to me and dropped his boxers.”
