Chapter 36 Xxxv - Sophie

• My legs wrapped around Patrick's hips, pulling him even closer to me. I had been longing for him for a long time, and now that he held me tightly against his bed, my body seemed to ignite.
• Finally, he had shown his face to me, letting me see the marks on his face. But they didn't make him look like a deformed monster; Patrick was beautiful in any way. Those marks were just reminders of what he had already suffered.
• He didn't know that I had already been told about his story, and I didn't ask him to speak. It had already been a big step for him to admit that he loved me and let me see his face.
