Bloodfever Quote by Karen Marie Moning
““Did you fuck him?” “Ah!” I yelled. “Of course not!” I rubbed my face with both hands and kept it buried there a minute. “Wouldn’t I be an addict if I did?” I raised my face. Barrons studied me, dark eyes cold. “Not if he protected you.” “They can do that? Really?” “Try not to sound so intrigued, Ms. Lane.””
