Kindle Notes & Highlights
Cáel’s light blue eyes narrowed on me. “Did I scare you?” “Uh, no?” It came out like a question instead of a statement. “Good,” he grunted.
“Cáel doesn’t usually touch…anyone,” Knox explained. “He can’t handle the contact.”
“Nothing can happen to you, Little One.” Those words curled around me, comforting somehow. I hugged Cáel back, sensing he needed it. “Nothing’s going to happen to me.” “No,” he growled. “It’s not. Because I won’t let it.”

“I’d take a blade for you a thousand times.” My eyes burned as my head swam. “Why?” “Because you matter.”
“Cozy? Since when does the Lord of Pain say cozy?”

I’d just be locked in a house with two guys who’d made me come harder than I could’ve dreamed, one controlling alpha male I wanted to climb like a tree, my professor who could barely look at me, and my maybe-boyfriend’s twin brother who’d rather stab me than smile at me. What could go wrong?
“Careful, Little Flame. You’re not ready for me.”
“You’re going to be so much fun to play with, Little Flame.”
“Sorry, big guy. Sometimes my emotions just leak out of my eyeballs.”
