“Oh, darling, as long as you still think I’m pretty, I don’t give a damn what I look like.”
Vicious little thing, indeed.
She is the embodiment of a bad decision. The twin of danger and desire. The fine line between deadly and divine. And I can feel myself drowning.
“Remind me to make you smile like that again, when you aren’t
“I love when you threaten to kill me, do you know that?” “Oh? And why is that?” The corner of his mouth twitches up. “Because every time you don’t, it only proves that you don’t want to.”
“You’ll be lucky if I let you keep your head, let alone your hand for laying a finger on her.”
“Call me anything you like. I’ll never pass up the chance to hear your voice, darling.”
“what do you want me to call you?” My eyes slowly meet his, confused by his question. “What do you want to call me?” “I want to call you mine.”
“But I’m never sober around you, Pae. Never not drunk on every detail that is you.”
“If I kiss you—really kiss you, like how I’ve wanted to, how I’ve waited to—should I expect a dagger at my throat?” His voice is rough, his gaze greedy. And then I reach up slowly and flick the tip of his nose. This time, I do take a moment to memorize the smile he gives me. “I guess you’ll have to kiss me to find out.”

I will not fail. The king’s smile is bloody. I will not falter.
