Lips Parted Quote by Laekan Zea Kemp
““Liliana woke with her face pressed into the crook of Diego’s arm, lips parted against his skin as the sun was just beginning to shine red through the curtain, her clothes still damp. She wondered how long she’d been asleep and though she knew they needed to leave soon, she didn’t want to move. She wanted them to stay as they were, tucked into each other, safe.””
