Something inside him recognized what Shannon was saying, recognized it on a deeper level than the devilish arguments of intellect or the visceral drives of shared passion. That same something yearned for the implication behind Shannon's words in a way both troubling and somewhat embarrassing to Felix's higher mind.
He both longed to be loved, and hated the idea of deserving it at the same time.
