Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Dante, smettila!” he growls from beneath my arm. “Get off me, I can fight for myself.” “No,” I snarl, my finger closing around the trigger. I shoot off a hailstorm of bullets into the murky space. “Stella will kill me if anything happens to you. I already owe your fiancée enough. I don’t need to add to the debt.”
The outline of his huge cock has my tipsy pussy pulsing with need. Gawd, she has no shame.
“Sei un pezzo di merda, Dante.” Yeah, maybe I am a piece of shit, but the hint of a smile curls my brother’s lip, and for a blessed instant, I’m relieved. He’ll forgive me for this, just like he’s forgiven me for all my sins. “You didn’t have to drug us, you imbecile.” “Um, yeah, he probably did.” Stella grins at her fiancé and wraps her slender arm around his waist. Somehow, they keep each other upright. “No way you’d be going this easily if it wasn’t for the sedatives.” A loopy smile parts my brother’s lips. “Perhaps.”
“Prove to everyone how much you deserve your birthright, fratello.” Luca flashes me a smile, a genuine one he typically only reserves for Stella. “And don’t die.”
Maybe it wasn’t just a good thing for her that we didn’t screw. I have a feeling that little firecracker and I would’ve been nothing but trouble.
I swallow hard as a wave of desire crashes below my belt. Idiota. My dick is a fool.
“Dormi, Rosa, sei al sicuro con me. Nessuno ti farà mai più del male.”
Forcing him to sit in an office all day is like chopping the king of the jungle’s balls off and throwing him in a cage at the zoo.
No one touches what’s mine and lives. This is not up for discussion.” He slides to the end of the seat and spears me with those midnight orbs. “Until Luca and Stella return, You. Are. Mine.”
“Merry Christmas, sweetheart.” He stands and nearly whacks me in the face with his hard-ass cock as he gets out of the tub.
“You heard me, pretty boy. Don’t you ever touch Rose again. She’s mine, and I’ll cut your balls off and feed them to you if you lay a hand on her just one more time.”
Oh, fuck no. Pezzo di merda. My hand snakes out before I can stop it, curling around the back of Rose’s neck. I yank her mouth to mine. She stares up at me, eyes wide an instant before my lips crash into hers.
“My world is blood and pain, and if you want to survive in it, you must be intimately acquainted with both.”
“Love is weakness, a frailty, and in our world only the strong survive. I was wrong before when I said I would ruin you. You would be my utter undoing Rose, and I cannot have that.”
“I don’t know how to do this, sweetheart. I am not a good man, not a good person. I do bad, fucked up things. I’ve only had you one time, and already I’m addicted. That’s not good for either of us. I’ve struggled with addiction
“I want you, Dante Valentino, and I’ll take everything that comes with the dark and savage package.”
“If anyone ever touches this sweet pussy, my pussy, I’ll rip his fucking cock off and make him choke on it. Do you understand me?”
“Did you just bite me?” His tongue moves over the sharp sting, and my back arches in delight. “Mine,” he growls. “All of you. Do you understand?” He fists my hair, yanking my head back so my eyes meet his. “You. Are. Mine.”
“I’m going to fill you with my cum, sweetheart. I want to see my seed spilling down your thighs. And one day, I’m going to put a baby in that belly.” All the air catches in my lungs. I freeze. And so does he.
“I’m not going anywhere,” he snarls. “You’ve unleashed the monster, and I warned you what would happen after that. You’re stuck with me now, sweetheart. You’re the sweetest drug I’ve ever tasted, and I’m already completely addicted. No one will take you away from me. No one.”
“Oh, Rosa, Rosa, you will be my absolute salvation. That or my utter demise. Either way, I’ll die a very happy man.”
he looks like an avenging sea god come to the shore to conquer and pillage. I volunteer!
“I know I’ve said it before, but I swear to you, Rosa, no one will ever hurt you again. I’m here now, and I’ll burn down the world for you.”
“You okay, D?” “No,” I growl. “I’m not okay at all. Fuck, Rosa. I’m in love with you.”
“Are you trying to find a way to take it all back?” A rueful chuckle parts his lips before he slowly shakes his head. “I’m afraid that ship has sailed, Rose. Your intoxicating pussy has claimed me for life. She’s a wicked little thing.”
I wonder if she weren’t on the pill if my little guys would have enough juice to put a baby in that belly. It’s the strangest thing, but it’s all I can think about lately. Maybe it’s my looming thirtieth birthday, but the idea of Rose full of my seed makes me hotter than hell.
“I love you, Rosa, but this thing between us terrifies me. Not because of me or you, but because of all the shit around us. I know I’m going to fuck this up at some point because that’s just what I do. And I need you to promise you’ll never give up on me, okay? Because before you there was only darkness, and now that I’ve had a taste of your light, I’d never survive the void again.”
“I’ll never give up on you, Dante Valentino. You’re mine as much as I am yours.”
“Let’s get something straight, sweetheart. You are not only mine, but now, I’m fucking in love with you. That changes things. You can’t just go gallivanting around the streets by yourself, and you sure as hell aren’t going back to Palestra where all those dickheads can ogle your ass until there’s a ring on your finger or my baby in your belly.”
He rocks his hips back, withdrawing, and my lusty pussy lets out a grunt of annoyance. Even at the ass crack of dawn she’s ready for him.
“So, I’m hearing I’ll be able to leave the penthouse soon?” “You must have some cum stuck in your ears, sweetheart, because I definitely never said that.” He throws me a shit-eating grin and thrusts his cock inside me. “Let’s get that cum where it’s supposed to be, in that pretty little pussy.”
“So does that mean you’re going to change your tattoo?” I sneak my finger through his button-down shirt. “Instead of Vengeance Is King, I think it should say Rose Is My Queen.” A wicked laugh rumbles his chest, vibrating against my own. Gawd, I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of that sound. “Or better yet, Rose’s Pussy Is My Queen.”
“Marry me, sweetheart, or I’ll have to bend you over my lap and spank the yes out of you until that pretty pink ass matches the enticing crimson of your cheeks when you come on my cock.”
“I warned you I was no hero, sweetheart, no knight in shining armor. I may not spout out pretty words or poetry, but I’ll love you the only way I know how, with all the fire in my dark soul. I’ll fuck you hard and often, and I’ll probably piss you off with my possessiveness even more, but I’ll protect you until my dying breath. You’ll be mine forever.”
