Christine Feehan Quote

I know Carpathians are of the earth, and their healing comes from the earth and all its natural powers. But, Mikhail, perhaps your prejudice and contempt for the human race has made you overlook some of its advantages.You persist in thinking me prejudiced. I like many humans. Mikhail found he couldn’t resist sliding the buttons open on the white silk shirt that covered her bare body. There was something deep within him, a primitive need, that made him want to look at her, to know he could do so whenever he wanted.She smiled at him, sweeping her hair back in her curiously sexy gesture. The action created a gap in the shirt so that her bare skin beckoned, her full breasts thrust toward him invitingly, then disappeared under a cloud of ebony silk. The sight took his breath away.Listen to me, my love, Raven murmured. Having a few friends and feeling affection for certain individuals of a race does not remove prejudice. You have lived with your abilities for so long you take them for granted. Because you can control the human mind, and you use them as cattle.He gasped, shocked that she could think such a thing. His hand circled her ankle where it was tucked up on the bed. I have never treated humans like cattle. Many of them are counted among my friends, although Gregori and some of the others think I am crazy. I watch humans grow and wish I could feel the things they feel. No, little one, I do not believe I treat them as cattle.She tilted her chin, regarding him steadily with her large sapphire eyes. Perhaps not like cattle, but I feel what you feel, Mikhail. You can hide this from yourself, but I can see it clearly. She smiled to soften her words. I know you don’t want to feel superior, but it is so easy to control us.
