David Quote by Sherry Thomas
““He climbed into bed himself and kissed his way up her legs. Instincts she didn’t even know she possessed made her clench her thighs together. Without any hesitation, he pushed them apart, exposing her to his gaze. “The doors of the temple, darling, never close to the devout acolyte.””
