Lachlan’s restraint finally comes with a warning: the next kiss will not end because he decides to be noble.
“Next time I kiss you, I’m not stopping because I’ve suddenly decided to be noble.” His gaze stayed on mine. “I’m going to kiss you until you’re holding on to me to stay upright, put my hands everywhere I’ve been thinking about putting them since that dungeon, and find out how many of those pretty little sounds I can drag out of you before you’re begging me for more.”
~Lachlan Byrnes, Eyes Never Lie
About this Lachlan Byrnes quote
This Lachlan Byrnes quote is a full dark romance promise. His restraint has limits, his desire is not subtle, and Isabella is no longer mistaking his gentleness for lack of hunger. The line works because it is not only about heat; it also carries everything that has built between them since the dungeon: trust, choice, temptation, and a man trying not to become another cage. This post is best for readers who want spicy mafia romance, forced proximity, and a hero who is dangerous even when he is being careful.
