    E.L. James
    “Don’t leave me,” he whispers.
    “Oh, for crying out loud—no! I am not going to go!” I shout and it’s cathartic. There, I’ve said it. I am not leaving.
    “Really?” His eyes widen.
    “What can I do to make you understand I will not run? What can I say?”
    He gazes at me, revealing his fear and anguish again. He swallows. “There is one thing you can do.”
    “What?” I snap.
    “Marry me,” he whispers.”

    E.L. James
    “Let me ask you something first. Do you want a regular vanilla relationship with no kinky fuckery at all?"
    My mouth drops open. "Kinky fuckery?" I squeak.
    "Kinky fuckery."
    "I can't believe you said that.'
    "Well, I did. Answer me," he says calmly.
    I flush. My inner goddess is down on bended knee with her hands clasped in supplication begging me.
    "I like your kinky fuckery," I whisper.”
