“You hit me the instant I saw you,” he said gruffly. “I couldn’t look away. I wanted you immediately. Excessively. Almost violently.”
“It’s my place to stand beside you, and support you, and yes, just fucking look pretty on your arm sometimes. It’s my right, my duty, and my privilege, Eva, just as it’s yours in reverse.”
“The only way I’m keeping my hands off her is if I’m dead. Find another way to fix us.”
“You’re the greatest risk I’ve ever taken.” His pressed his lips gently to mine. “And the greatest reward.”
“If you wanted him, it wouldn’t be enough for me to let you go. I want you too much. I want you with me, in my life, in my bed. If I can have that, nothing else matters. I’m not too proud to take what I can get.”
Reaching for my hand, he lifted it to his lips and kissed my fingertips. “I love you.”
“People get over love. They can live without it, they can move on. Love can be lost and found again. But that won’t happen for me. I won’t survive you, Eva.” My breath caught at the look on his face when he glanced at me. “I’m obsessed with you, angel. Addicted to you. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted or needed, everything I’ve ever dreamed of. You’re everything. I live and breathe you. For you.”
“I don’t need anything else. I get out of bed every morning and face the world because you’re in it.”
“Because of you, the world makes sense to me in a way it didn’t before. I have a place now, with you.”
I’d kill for you, give up everything I own for you . . . but I won’t give you up.
He caught me to him, his arms banded tight around me. His face pressed into my throat. “Where do we go from here?” I held him. “Wherever this takes us. Together.”
