Kindle Notes & Highlights
King might be a monster, but I’m the monster’s wife. And that might be enough to save me right now.
I know that she drove all the way here to get away from me, putting herself in danger. And I know that if someone like Hans ever got his hands on her, I’d tear the entire fucking world apart to get her back.
My body is so primed for him. So ready to take him. And I want to hate myself for it. I know I should hate myself for it. But he came for me. I ran. And he came for me.
“He’s not all bad.” Val’s grimace as she says it makes me laugh. “I mean, I get it. That’s pretty bad. But, like, in general, he’s pretty all right.” “Pretty all right,” I repeat.
This is not a comforting statement Val!!😆
I’m King Fucking Vass. I know how to make women fall for me. No. That stupid inner voice argues. You only know how to make women fall for your dick.
😆
“I’m gonna keep coming inside you. So if you don’t want a herd of kids just yet, you better find some birth control.”
🥵🥵🥵
“What we had was nothing. Nothing to get upset over. Nothing worth mentioning. And if you insult my wife again, I won’t stop her from throwing that at you.” He nods down to my hand. “And I can tell you from personal experience that her aim is solid.”
“This isn’t up for debate. It’s for your safety.” “For how long?” “A while. Until I can find a crime lord to marry you off to.” “What?” A full-throated laugh leaves me at the look on her face. “I’m kidding.” She narrows her eyes at me, and recent experience has me half expecting her to throw her bottle of root beer at me. “Not funny.” I’m still smiling. “It was a little funny.”
I haven't read Dom yet, but if I'm remembering the premise correctly doesn't Val end up with Dom? So he kind of does eventually marry her off to a crime lord🤣.
“She said that, though? That she likes me?” I don’t care that I sound like a little boy with a crush. “I believe her words were something along the lines of I’m starting to like your stupid brother.”
I know there’s no point in yelling at him. He’d claim it was just an accident. I’d say otherwise. And the crowd—like my parents—will always believe the stupid man. Because everyone always believes the stupid man.
Why is this such a universal experience for afab individuals?
“With me,” I tell Nero, and he peels away from his wife, stepping into stride with me. “Who’re we killing?” His tone is casual. “I promised Aspen I wouldn’t.” He makes a humming sound. “Still leaves a lot of wiggle room.”
🤣 these men
“I know you’re going to want revenge. And I know you think your brother will be able to help you. But he can’t. Because we are The Alliance. And we own this fucking city.”
“Should we get some food to go with that booze?” Aspen takes a step away from the table. “I’ll have the servers bring over a tray.” Nero lifts a finger. “No crab legs, please.”
iykyk🤣 and Payton doesn't know
Two. Weeks. It’s been two motherfucking weeks since I’ve had sex with Savannah, and if she tries to make it three, I’m going to tie her to the bed and change her fucking mind.
poor man has the bluest of blue balls right now😆
I mean, really, what’s the point in being a good hacker if you’re not going to use it for good?
what is it with me and hackers, first Josh, now King🤭
“Seriously? Don’t you have something better to do?” “Certainly.” I make sure she can feel my eyes dragging down her body as I lower my frame into the chair. “But I’ll do that later.”
“Honey.” He cups my chin, keeping my eyes on his. “I’ll tell everyone about your art because I’m fucking proud of you.”
“Please, My King. I need you to fuck me!” His rumble sounds like a purr. “Anything for my Queen.”
“Yeah, he came after me because of you. But you stopped him. And if anyone ever comes after me again, you’ll stop them, too.” “I won’t ever let you get hurt again.” “You’re hurting me now.” My voice finally cracks, all the pain and love and anguish breaking through. “You took me. And made me yours. I got used to your warmth. But then you took it away.” A tear escapes down my cheek. “I don’t want to be cold anymore.”
does. “I won’t ever lie to you. You’re my wife. My fucking Queen. And I love you with my entire disgusting heart.”
