Kindle Notes & Highlights
“If you are still here when I come back, I promise I’ll give you what you want. You wanna stop having to be you for the night? I’ll show you what it's like to be someone else.”
It sounds like he’s all around me. His voice is low and heady. I can almost feel the hunger dripping from his words, something dark and depraved lacing them.
Fear. Intrigue. Need. My hunter releases me, shoving me away from his reach. “Time starts now, princess.”
“You’re such a little freak, Blair. How does this feel, being my own personal cum slut? Letting me use your body any way I fucking want.” I thrust once more, deep, knowing that’s all she needs to shatter apart. “Come for me, princess. Show me how good you feel.”
I grab the back of her neck, smashing my lips into hers. She moans into my mouth, pulling me closer. I nip her bottom lip, and let her go.
I lean over the edge and exhale slowly, then open my eyes. Jackson stands below me, head cocked to one side with a devious smirk playing on his lips. His eyes are swimming with victory and something darker. I’ve been caught… again.
“You’re my dirty little slut, princess. This isn't over yet. You just happen to be lucky that it’s also your reward.”
His hand cups my chin and tilts it up, forcing me to look at him. “Aren’t pretty girls supposed to be scared of monsters?”
What if I’m more afraid of myself and the lines that I didn’t even know I was willing to cross. Tonight has shown me that maybe I’m not the girl who wants to run away from the monster, but maybe the one who secretly wants to be found by him.
He takes a step back, admiring my naked body. His tongue glides over the edges of his teeth, and my skin pricks in anticipation. I can’t do that. I do want this. Don’t I? Isn’t this what you’ve been asking for all night?
Oh, yeah, Mallory. I allowed myself to be completely and utterly stripped naked by a stranger in a carnival, both literally and figuratively. He screwed my brains out all over that fucking place. He degraded me, tied me up, locked me in a cage, and dragged me across the floor like a human-sized doll. And you know what? I fucking loved it.
It happens so fast. He closes the space between us and grasps my face in his hands, his mouth on mine like a man starved for oxygen and I am his only salvation.
