Love is poison. A sweet poison, yes, but it will kill you all the same. —GEORGE R. R. MARTIN
“So I like dangerous alpha males with big-dick energy. Don’t judge.”
“Sorry, princess. If you’re looking for a knight in shining armor, you’re looking in the wrong fucking place.”
He growls, “Interrupt me again and I’ll take you over my knee right here and spank that perfect ass of yours until you’re screaming.”
“I want to taste every inch of you. I want to hear you scream my name. I want to make you come so hard you forget your own. I don’t have time to fuck around—excuse the pun—with the kind of wooing I’d usually do to win you, so that’s why I’m being so blunt. “Ask me to leave you alone and you have my word I will. But until I hear that, I have to tell you, Natalie, that I want to fuck your sweet cunt and your perfect ass and your luscious mouth and anything else you’ll let me fuck, because you are the single most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life.”
just feel like … I don’t know anything about him. What if he’s a criminal?” “What are you, running for public office? Who cares if he’s a criminal? You’re not marrying him, you’re just bouncing up and down on his dick for a few days until he leaves. Don’t make everything so complicated.”
“That’s love, babe. If it doesn’t hurt, it isn’t real.”
It’s funny how an offhand remark can turn out in the future, like some horrible prophecy, to be such perfectly accurate truth.
want everything you have to give, Natalie, for as long as you want to give it to me.”
“What do you think I should do?” “I have two words for you. The first word starts with ‘Fuck,’ and the second starts with ‘Him.’”
“I haven’t stopped thinking about you since the day we met. I’m not someone who obsesses over things, but I’ve obsessed over you. To the point of distraction. To the point where it interfered with my work. I can’t get you out of my head, and I’ve tried. Hard. It was useless. So I gave up trying.

“For a guy who claims to be such a bad scary criminal, you’re a big softie.” “Only for you.”
“So either don’t tell me your secrets or don’t make me fall in love with you. Because once I fall in, even death can’t make me fall out.”
“Say the word and I’ll get on my knees and make you come. I’ll make you come with my mouth, then I’ll fuck you up against this wall and make you come on my cock while I suck on those perfect tits of yours.”
“Mine now,” he whispers hotly, his voice triumphant. “You come on my cock, you’re mine.”
“That’s where people go when they need to feel better: home.” “But your home is in New York.” “Home can be a person, too. That’s what you are for me.”
“I’m a ride or die. All in or nothing. It doesn’t matter where we live or how far apart we are. I’m yours. You make your vows in blood, but I make them with my heart. And my heart belongs to you now. I don’t need a picket fence or picnics in the park. I only need what you give me. And it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever known.”
“I’d kill him before I’d betray you. I’d burn his whole empire to the ground before I’d turn my back on the woman I love.”
“I would. I’ll always follow you. You’re my north star.”
