8 " The company I’ve been keeping doesn’t seem to satisfy me anymore,” he whispers in my ear. "
9 " I'd say people respond to me on four levels and four levels only; they want to pray to me, be me, do me or kill me. "
10 " No picture I saw online truly captured the effect of that tanned, well-structured face in person. Absolutely none. His face is walk-straight-into-a-wall stunning, and I won’t even dwell on his body, but now I understand why his bed is the most coveted spot in town. "
