Quote by Aurora M. Stark

“I loved the way he looked at me, the way he devoured me, stripped me down with his gaze. No doubt he grew an obsession with me, a kind of unhealthy fixation, yet I still liked it. But I never expected him to confess so bluntly that he was in love with me. How could it be that we felt the same?”
