When a woman submits to a man, it's the most precious gift she can give. Herself. Unreservedly. The man has to respect and honor that gift above all else. Even if he respects nothing else in the world, he must respect the woman in his care. It's his sworn duty to protect, honor and cherish his submissive. To take care of her and provide a safe haven. Someone who would put his own needs above his woman's is no man.

The arrogant man probably thought his path to heaven was already assured, and that he acted in accordance to God__ will just by breathing.

They began collecting dishes and clearing the table while Swanny sat and watched them in confusion. __ow wait a minute. I was forbidden to help and was ordered to maintain my station, but you guys are all helping.___ don__ much believe there__ such a thing as woman__ work,_ Frank said. ____e always brought my boys up to help out whether it__ with the cooking or cleaning.

I think I get it now. I should get my ass up and help no matter what she told me.__rank nodded and handed him a stack of dishes. __xactly.

My attitude is born out of necessity. I've made mistakes. I've made decisions I regretted. I know what it's like to live with regret. I live with it everyday. But if I let it take over, I'd never get out of bed in the morning.

If I interrupted violence, by all means I'll step back. Always nice to see bloodshed first thing in the a.m.

And maybe that__ was her biggest crime of all. Making him fall in love with her.

Whoa, wait a minute, Coletrane. Are you proposing to me?___ell I would if you__ let me finish,_ he grumbled.

Have you ever been torn between two impossibilities and knew in your heart that no matter which way you went or which path you chose that you were doomed to unhappiness?

I want him to burn for me, to not be able to go a day without touching me, holding me, caressing me. He__l be an excellent lover. I want a man who knows how to please me,

Sophie, honey, stop looking at me like that,_ Garrett said gruffly. __ou__l have me convinced I__ going to die.___ou__e not?
