Something about roosters laying eggs, or pigs dancing in the orchard. Itโs what you always do. Letโs have it.โ Cam gave him a sardonic glance. โI canโt think of one right now.โ โBy God, Iโve had to listen to hundreds of them. And Phelan doesnโt have to hear even one?
Lisa KleypasI have never said this to anyone before.โ Leoโs voice was like ragged velvet. โBut the idea of you with child is the most insanely arousing thing Iโve ever imagined. Your belly all swollen, your breasts heavy, the funny little way you would walk โฆ I would worship you. I would take care of your every need. And everyone would know that Iโd made you that way, that you belonged to me.
Lisa KleypasWe assured Phelan that we were more than happy to let him have you and your menagerie,โ Leo retorted. โAfter that, he said he needed to think.โ โAbout what?โ Beatrix demanded. โWhat is there to think about? Why is it taking him so long to make a decision?โ โHeโs a man, dear,โ Amelia explained kindly. โSustained thinking is very difficult for them.
