Gaze Quote by Gena Showalter

“Why do I not feel the need to master you?” she purred into his ear. She bit the lobe. Sweet fire. “That’s how it was, before?” She nodded, arching her hips to take more of him. Another inch. He had to cut off a groan. “Perhaps because my heart is so completely yours, there’s nothing left to master.” quote by Gena Showalter
