Tyrone chuckled at himself, "I wanted to get close to you, wanted to sleep with you. I thought, maybe I was just interested in your body, and I felt that your temperament was a bit challenging." Quintessa gripped the car door tighter and tighter. The car had good soundproofing; she couldn't hear anything from outside, only Tyrone's voice.
