Gaze Quote by Pepper Winters
““Whatever previous kisses he’d bestowed were no longer relevant. Whatever touch or activity we’d partaken in didn’t matter. This kiss was everything. It was truth. It was honesty. It was terrifying. He kissed me with nothing barred. He dropped a disguise, letting me taste what he’d never say. He was violence as well as tenderness. He was obsession as well as rationality. “Fuck,””
