Under Your Scars (Under Your Scars, #1)

by Ariel N. Anderson

The serial killer in my apartment tucked me into bed after I passed out and he made sure to put my socks back on my feet so they wouldn’t get cold.

I hate cigarettes, but he makes it look so goddamn sexy that I really don’t care. With

Yup i feel you girl

Love makes us stupid.

But her cracks are still there and I’m trying to save the woman I fell in love with from becoming what I did.

I ordered a burger just like daddy, because burgers are man food, and I am nothing if not a big strong man like him.

Safe isn’t a place. It’s the people that love you.

“I love you.” I say through gritted teeth, her hair wrapped tight around my fist. “I love you so much it makes me insane. I love you so much it makes me dangerous. I love you so much that I would burn this world for you and all the people in it just to keep you all to myself. Do you understand me? If it comes down to a choice, you will choose me. I don’t give a fuck if it costs the remainder of your soul. You are mine and only mine.”

would love you even if I had no heart to give you, because you are the sole reason for my existence. My soul would love you if we lived on different continents and spoke different languages. My soul would be tethered to you across oceans and mountains and harrowing canyons as black as my heart. My soul would be yours if I pulled the trigger the night we met, because not even death could keep us apart. God couldn’t keep me from you, because God isn’t real, but you are, and that’s all the motivation I would have needed to find you.”

Loving her is more important than revenge.
