Gaze Quote by Myra McEntire
““Did I say thank you?" Michael asked as we ducked into Liam's office. "If not, thank you." He raised our joined hands to his lips and kissed the inside of my wrist. "I can't remember." I couldn't remember anything. Hello, erogenous zone. "And you're welcome." He just grinned. Still holding hands, we stepped into the veil.””
