It was only when they risked their lives for one another was it an expression of "true love." "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" John 15:13. Once again, agape love. Before that, they had sex multiple times. Harry compared Justine to Burger King, saying he wouldn't eat all his meals there even though it's his favorite restaurant.

--- End quote ---

But that doesn't quite fit with the little sister,  who hadn't risked her life for her boyfriend, nor he for her, yet Thomas seemed to think that if it was true love she could burn out her demon before it even got started...  That appears to be more choice over compulsion and we are talking serious drives in a teenager...  Huge hormonal drive verses true love,  controlling the natural sex drive that normal vanilla teens have difficulty with...  The emotion feeds the demon, pushing the sex act even more, once the teen loses control the kill is enviable, the demon becomes established. 

Bad Alias:
I'm not saying risking one's life is the only expression of true love. I'm saying "true love" is mutually held Agape love. I'm also saying that sex is the only thing that is intimate enough, physically, for the true love protection to take hold or be broken. Finally, I'm saying sex, with another, is always intimate, at least in the Dresden Files.
