"Untuk sekali ini, dia tidur dulu. Dia berbaring dalam gelap, mendengarkannya bernafas, mencuri sedikit kehangatannya saat tubuhnya sendiri mendingin. Sejak dia tertidur, dia membelai rambutnya. "Aku mencintaimu," gumamnya. "Aku sangat mencintaimu, aku bodoh tentang hal itu." Sambil menghela nafas, dia duduk, memejamkan mata, dan ingin pikirannya kosong. Di sebelahnya, Roarke tersenyum ke dalam kegelapan. Dia tidak pernah tidur dulu."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

For once, he slept first. She lay in the dark, listening to him breathe, stealing a little of his warmth as her own body cooled. Since he was asleep, she stroked his hair. "I love you," she murmured. "I love you so much, I'm stupid about it." With a sigh, she settled down, closed her eyes, and willed her mind to empty. Beside her, Roarke smiled into the dark. He never slept first.
