Kindle Notes & Highlights
The only jarring difference rested on my chest at the top of my cleavage, where a black circle stained my skin.
Who could sleep while the devil was watching them?
Do you have any fucking idea how disorienting and terrifying it is to be aware that I died and somehow still be fucking trapped in this Hellhole?”
“Before I saw you the night I killed Loralei,” he said, stealing the breath from my lungs. “That’s impossible,” I said with a scoff. “That was decades before I was born.” “And yet it is the night that I marked you as mine,”
“If I catch you, then you’ll give me the fight I’ve come to crave from you. If I catch you, we will go to war in the way our souls already know—until my body recognizes every inch of your skin by touch. When I catch you, I will fuck you, and we both know you’ll love every goddamn minute of it,”
“You wanting to fuck me when I’m afraid doesn’t exactly put me in a good mood.”
want to fuck you when you’re so mad you try to claw my eyes out. I want to fight you, and then I want to fuck you while you direct all that anger toward me.”
Willow needed to know that I was her only home. That her future started and ended with me. I would tolerate nothing less than an eternity with her by my side, guiding her along the path that she’d always been destined to walk.
It wasn’t the physical activity that made my heart race, but my blinding panic at what I would do if Willow left.
“I am going to rip your cock off while you sleep and feed it to Beelzebub, you dick,”
“If my cock is my only redeeming quality,” I said, shoving her hair out of my way so that I could wrap my fingers around the back of her neck. I used that grip to press her toward the ground, letting her turn her head so that I could see her profile. I pinned her, holding her perfectly still as I shifted my hips and pulled back. “Then I expect you to spend most of your time sitting on it, wife.”
The magic of our marital bond snapped into place with it finally consummated in truth, that warmth all-consuming.
She wouldn’t attempt to run from me again. She knew it was futile. I would feel her anywhere now that our bond had been completed, linking us irrevocably.
“I’m saying that your mistake was stabbing me. That blade was made for you,” he said, forcing me to drop my gaze to the tip of the knife where it touched me. “What does that—” “I bound our lives together when I brought you back, Willow. If you die, I will follow,”
“They would gladly sacrifice you if it meant the world survived, but I wouldn’t. I would never walk this plane again if it meant I had you at my side in Hell.”
They would sacrifice me to save themselves, but he wouldn’t. It might not have been the freedom I’d thought he’d give me; it might not have been the choice I’d hoped for, but it was mine all the same.
