Why Cant We Quotes

“You know what the hardest part is, liessa? I don't even know why I'm fighting this need. You would have me, wouldn't you?'

'Yes,' I whispered without a hint of shame or guilt. It was the truth, even if there was no deal, no duty to be carried out. And that should've terrified me.

Those fingers followed the vee of the robe, gliding over the swell of my breast. 'Yes.'

'They why can't we?”
