"You sap," he said softly as he rested his forehead against Bramen's. "Now I have to insist you make love to me. Since you're going to be so romantic."

His tone was gentle though his words were meant to be mocking. Dorian wanted to make love, to have Bramen wrapped around him so close that they felt like one person.
