1 " I’ve had four serious boyfriends in my life.”He growled.“What is wrong?”“Love is forever.” He gave her a disgusted look. “You have no idea what real love is, Joy. "

2 " It’s called being in love. It’s more frightening than confronting your deepest fear and opens you to being hurt beyond the physical plane.” He placed a hand over his heart. “It might seem as though it’s a weakness to you but it is proof that we are more than numbers, experiments, or whatever else Mercile intended us to be. It takes bravery and strength to feel such strong emotions for one person when we were denied from birth the chance to ever care about anything or anyone. I’m not saying it’s easy or painless. It is probably one of the most complex things I’ve experienced. Jessie is my life. My heart beats for her and I will admit to all that I wouldn’t want to go on if I lost her. The unmated ones don’t understand and are currently looking confused or horrified. I’m hopeful they’ll know the ups and downs of falling in love one day. It’s a gift and a curse at times but everyone should experience it. It’s a part of life and we are survivors. "
3 " Easy, man." He slowly turned and his dark eyes narrowed. "Don't mess up your house. Or my face. You like us both. We'll deal with how to handle this as soon as you calm down. "
4 " You’d hate me later if we do this and you have feelings for someone else.”“No excuses,” he snarled.It gave her pause as she regarded him with alarm.He slowly crouched. “If there is a female, she’s not here. You are.”Ouch. Would anyone with breasts do it for him right now?He seemed to guess where her thoughts went. It shouldn’t have surprised her. The man she’d known had been deeply insightful.“I am certain there is no female I want more than you, Joy. If I was dating, I settled for her.”“You can’t know that for sure.”He leaned forward, gripped the edge of the bed with both hands, and nodded. “I have no doubt. "
5 " Her emotions were so raw that the hated tears were always just below the surface, waiting to escape at the most inopportune times. She felt like an emotional wreck and had to constantly battle for composure. "
6 " It’s common to cease all communication when a relationship ends. "
