Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Don't hide your beauty away from me. You're so addicting.”
“So, why don't you?” I tease, my voice low. “I can’t.” “Why not?” “I respect you too much.” DISRESPECT ME.
In a world full of pain and unforgiving people, I want to be a part of the good. I genuinely believe you can significantly impact someone's life just by smiling at them.
“What I mean is that you're Paul's little sister. I'll always protect you, whether you like it or not. You're an Alvarez, which means you'll always have me.” I'm weak.
“You are my TBI.”
“You’re playing games with the devil, little angel. Are you sure you want to go to hell?”
“Your existence alone brings me to my knees, and I hate you for that. I hate that you’ve invaded every part of my mind. Before you, I was a simple man. Work, train, sleep, eat, repeat. I didn’t have to fucking worry about anybody else. I hate that ever since I’ve tasted you, all I want to do is devour the rest of you. I hate that you’re Paul’s sister because it makes it even more fucked up to want you.”
“Once you pull down those pants, my cock will be the first and only that will ever be inside of you. Do you understand that, Ari? If I find out any other man tries to take what’s mine, he’ll wish he hadn’t.” He threatens into my ear. Something about his possessive threat has me even more drawn to him.
“Oh baby, I think you forget that I’m the military’s most lethal trained killer…”
“I’ve sent way too many souls to hell. I wouldn’t hesitate to send another if they even look at what's mine.”
“Time waits for no one. Death is a shadow stalking the living. It is a dreadful, inexorable promise, and life is a lovely lie.”
“What’s it look like I’m doing, little angel? I’m going to show you that the only thing that should scare you the most is me.”
I was mad at myself. I loved every second of it, and I’m questioning my need to go to therapy.
“Danny…oh, God!” I shriek, closing my eyes. “God?” He says it like I insulted him. “Don’t bother calling out for Him. He can’t hear you. There is no God when I’m around, baby.”
“I’m already going to hell. I’ll do my best not to take you with me.”
She’s like my ocean. I was caught in her waves of beauty, struggling to get back to shore. Back to my old ways, back to the old me. I’m afraid I’m stuck in her ocean now, and I’ll gladly drown in her waters if it means she’ll always be mine.
“But even if you choose to leave, you will always be mine. Even if you decide to run, your soul is trapped within me, and I’m never giving it back.”
“Time waits for no one. Death is a shadow stalking the living. It is a dreadful, inexorable promise, and life is a lovely lie.”
