“Whatever you take, it’ll always be less than what he would have gotten, because I would have given myself to him willingly, body and soul, and there’s nothing you can do about it. You will have to settle for the consolation prize, Remo Falcone.”
And I swore to myself that no matter the price, no matter what it would cost me, one day I would be the one to bring Remo Falcone to his knees, the one to break the cruelest man I knew.
She shook her head and peered up at Nino with so much fucking love I knew I could never hurt a single hair on her body.

“You took something from me, true, but you’re not the only one doing the taking. Maybe you don’t see it yet, but with every bit you take from me, you’re giving me a bit of yourself in return, Remo, and you will never get it back.”

“Strong enough to take you and our children home where you all belong, Angel.”
“Hardly anything worth having can be gained without loss, pain, and sacrifice.”
“You are an angel, and I’m your ruin.”
“Whatever’s in there, it’s yours. Whatever love I’m capable of, it’s yours, too.”
