He loved her. He loved her because nature willed it. Because they were already united and of one body. The bare flesh on every part of her belonged to him. The scent emitting from her skin was his.

About This Quote

He loved her because nature willed it. Because they were already united and of one body. The bare flesh on every part of her belonged to him. The scent emitting from her skin was his.

Love isn’t something we choose, and the love between a man and a woman is even more so. If you find yourself in love with someone, but they don’t feel the same way, you can’t force them to love you back. But what you can do is show them how much they mean to you by loving them no matter what happens.

You can show your love by being there for them and doing everything for them that you can without expecting anything in return. Love is a force that cannot be denied, and it draws us together whether we like it or not.
