Kindle Notes & Highlights
We are bigger than this world. Our love is greater than time and space—that much I know for certain. So, I’ll watch from afar. I’ll hunt you like my little lamb. I’ll quietly help you from afar and save your pride from being trampled by what you would consider charity, even though it’s far from it. I’m only sharing what’s rightfully yours. And when it’s time to feast, I’ll know. Until we meet again, my love.
omit, no matter what twisted lifetime we find ourselves dropped into, she'll always be mine. Her soul belongs to me. Nothing about my love for her is forbidden; it’s simply misunderstood by most.
“If you don't lean back on that pillow, grab the vibrator back up, and run it along your pussy in the next thirty seconds, I'm going to do it for you,”
He watches me like I'm the only other person in the world. Like every move I make is the most interesting, most outrageous thing he's ever witnessed.
He’s back to that dominant predator who takes me in the middle of the night and kills those he thinks have wronged me. The one who absorbs all the ugly and unspeakable things I hate about myself, dirtying his soul in the name of cleansing mine.
there's a part of him that speaks to the darkest parts of me, encouraging them to step into the light and be seen like they never have before.
“Death is inevitable. Grief is a privilege. It means you've loved someone enough to want the impossible—for them to live forever.”
But I could never punish him for loving me so fiercely. He found me again. We lost each other in the chaos that everyone else created in our lives, and he still managed to get to me.
When you’re in the room, nothing else exists. My entire world spins on your axis. I can’t concentrate on anything if you’re there.”
“It's difficult because with you here, I can see beyond all of this. I want a future… one that doesn't include time in jail, or being haunted by all the lives I've taken, or a life without you. So, yes, I'm protective of you, and it might be a little distracting, but that's not the most challenging part. The hardest part is ensuring I do everything carefully and correctly. It's getting retribution for my sister and ensuring they can't do this shit to anyone else. But it's also making it possible that one day, we can move on from it all without looking back.”
I'm driven by rage. She's driven by compassion.
“Home?” she questions with that sarcastic little pitch that makes me want to slam her into the bed and punish her. “Yes, Stardust. What's mine is yours.” “No, that only applies to married couples.” Shaking her head, she scrunches her nose, the way she always does when my fortune is mentioned. “Have I not told you? We're getting married.” Lifting her left hand, she makes a show of glaring at the empty ring finger, pulling a rare laugh out of me. “I don't remember being asked.” “Do you truly think I'd give you the choice?” I tease, although I'm still half serious. She could say no a hundred

“Fine. Let's kill these assholes so we can get married.” I've never loved her more.
I return her smile, fighting the urge to hoist her up onto one of these toolboxes and take her before they wake. “I love when you show your teeth.”
I’m so fucking sick of men thinking they can just take and take and take until there’s nothing left. Then, when there’s no more than a jaded corpse, they move on to their next victim, as if the last one never existed.
Our skin glides across one another, lubricated by sweat and lust and our victim’s blood. I can't contain myself. This animalistic need to have him right here—right now—is stronger than anything I've ever felt. By taking that man's life, I've opened a new pathway in my mind. One that doesn't ask permission or play coy. She takes what she wants and ignores everything else.
I’m floating, and he tethers me. I’m sinking, and he pulls me back up.
“So, this is what it's like to be a fancy CEO,” she teases, spinning around in my chair. “There's a lot more spreadsheets involved,” I joke,
