Sarah J. Maas Quote

Rhys straightened. You'd- make me food? Heat, I said. I can't cook.It didn't seem to make a difference. But whatever it was, the act of offering him food... I dumped some cold soup into a pan and lit the burner. I don't know the rules, I said, my back to him. So you need to explain them to me.He lingered in the center of the cabin, watching my every move. He said hoarsely, It's an... important moment when a female offers her mate food. It goes back to whatever beats we were a long, long time ago. But it still matters. The first time matters. Some mated pairs will make an occasion of it- throwing a party just so the female can formally offer mate food... That's usually done amongst the wealthy. But it means that the female... accepts the bond. I stared into the soup. Tell me the story- tell me everything. He understood my offer: tell me while I cooked, and I'd decide at the end whether or not to offer him that food.
