Kindle Notes & Highlights
To all my readers who long to be devoured in the flames of passionate and all-consuming love. But also crave to be ravaged. Taken. And disrespected in the best way.
“Did someone hurt you, angel?” His voice was strained, spoken between clenched teeth, as if he knew why I panicked. “Tell me. Who?”
“Tell me his name,” he demanded in a harsh whisper. “It was a long time ago, Derek. He doesn’t matter.” His fingers dug into me. “It. Matters.”
“I need you to understand something. You’re in my life now. You won’t be reckless.” He brought his lips to my ear and growled. “Mine.”
You and I would be so damn good together.
“I thought I told you not to be reckless, angel.”
“I’m sorry. You don’t owe me an explanation. I’ll see you when I see you, I guess.” He leaned in, trapping me against the arm of the sofa and his body. “Did you already forget what I told you, angel?” Mine.
“I already warned you. You’re in my life, and—” “Yours,” I whispered, staring directly into his eyes.
“I’m going to fuck you, Eva. I’m going to taste and savor every damn inch of you. In my bed, in my room—on every goddamn surface of my house.”
“When I fuck you, Eva, I’m going to wreck you. Do you hear me? Every part of you belongs to me now. That sweet pussy only gets wet for me.” His breath fanned hot over the shell of my ear. “And when that time comes, you’ll be on your knees, taking this cock like a good fucking girl.” “Oh… fuck,” I breathed, eyes hooded. Completely gone for this man.
“I don’t have many people in my life I give a damn about. You, angel—I told you once before. You’re in my life now. You’re important to me. I was just worried.”
Fuck every single one of them. For Eva, I’d go to war with the whole goddamn world.
She was wholly unaware of the lengths I was willing to go to, the people I’d kill without so much as a second thought if it meant she was safe. The day I’d set eyes on Evangelina, something inside me shifted out of place. Out of balance. The fabric of my very existence had been unraveled. The code I lived by. All of it, in shambles. She’d turned
my world upside down and inside out.
“Angel.” His voice was a low, husky groan demanding an answer. “Yours, Derek. Only for you.”
But she was everything.
The realization of how utterly fucked we were dawned on me at that moment. This was it. We were too far gone. And I didn’t give a single fuck. It didn’t matter what awaited me on the other side of this proverbial shitstorm. As long as I was with this woman, nothing else mattered. I would die here. Die for her. Kill for her. Anything for her.
“Say it.” “Derek. I’m yours.”
“You fought your way out… back to me. And you killed a man twice your size who was trying to kill you. That’s far from pathetic. It’s fucking badass,” he added with a grin.
“Good girl,” he whispered against my lips.
