Captured Quote by Victoria Lynne
““But you kissed me!” He wished she’d quit reminding him of that. It just made him want to do it all over again. “Devon, I give you my word, all I intend to do now is sleep.” She studied him through narrowed eyes. “How do I know that once we’re in bed you won’t… won’t…” “Turn into a wild, rutting beast who’s unable to control himself?” he supplied. “Exactly,” she breathed, looking supremely relieved that he’d said it and not she. “That’s very flattering, but I can assure you that you’re quite safe.” He waited until he saw her relax to add casually, “That only happens when the moon is full.””
