Kindle Notes & Highlights
Whoever thought getting consent wasn’t sexy was a douche. Hearing a woman tell you they wanted you to do wicked things to their body was the biggest turn on.
“Fuck, Baby. If you keep saying things like that, you’ll never be able to get rid of me.” Why did that sound so good?
“I know you’re trying to draw parallels and shit, but I’d rather she actually liked us than tolerated us,” Hades said quietly, gazing at the woman with longing in his eyes. “I don’t know.” Eli smirked mischievously. “You’ve been in the pack for years and we’re all still tolerating you.”
These men were dangerous. Not in the ‘could murder you in your sleep’ kind of way, but in the ‘watch out or you’ll quickly fall in love’ way.
“You’re not broken, Love.” I captured his wrists, gently strumming my thumbs along his forearms. “I think I might be.” Thane stood behind me, gathering my hair and moving it off to one side. “Then, we’ll pick up all the pieces and help you fit them back together,”
“We can be your glue, Demi,” Eli vowed. “We’ll hold you together, even when it feels like you’re falling apart.”
“Don’t you know it’s rude to make a girl choose between a dream and a fantasy?” “Which one am I?”
It took me a lot of years and a good pack to realize that life isn’t inherently bad. People make choices, and those choices have consequences.
“And now you’re here. Nothing,—not forming my own pack, not getting adopted, not even meeting Leo—has ever felt more right.”
He was a god in his own right, yet there was no question in my mind that he’d cede all of that power to me, letting me overpower him.
It was official. When it came to these men, I was so royally screwed.
You’re happy. Stop self-sabotaging. That was easier said than done.
Demi felt like home: familiar and comforting and exactly where I wanted to be.
I could picture Demi as my mate—my wife. The pack and I had already decided she was our future. As long as she agreed to have us, the rest was simply semantics.
“But right now, I’m done talking, Love. You look like a goddess, and I’m ready to worship at your altar.”
This decision didn’t mean all my baggage or trauma mysteriously disappeared. But it did mean I was choosing not to be ruled by them.
Right. Because that wasn’t awkward at all. You’re invited to come fuck my brains out for the next three to five days. Please RSVP and don’t forget to check whether you’d like the chicken or the steak to be served during our intermittent food breaks.
“You’re beautiful, Thane,” she whispered, and my heart expanded. “No, Demi. You’re beautiful. I’m just the lucky bastard who gets to stand next to you.” Hopefully, for the rest of my life.
I felt her in my chest like a living, breathing part of me. I hadn’t claimed her with a bite, but I was already bonded, so far over the edge for this girl that I was falling. Absolutely. Fucking. Gone.
“You’re going to make me fucking come.” I didn’t know if Leo was talking to me or to Hades. Most likely both, but the idea of the two men getting each other off made me savage.
They were going to make an honest woman out of me, and—knots and bites aside—there was nothing I wanted more.
I was Demi Leigh. Omega. And believe it or not, I’d find a way to rescue myself.
