“I’m not getting pirate as much as rock star. Or head of a motorcycle gang. He looks like he stepped right off the Sons of Anarchy set. Ten bucks says he’s a drug dealer.”
“Who cares?” whispers Sloane, staring at him. “He could be Jack the Ripper and I’d still let him come all over my tits.”

“Your pirate just hit the restroom,” I say, sliding into my chair. “If you’re fast, you can catch him on the way out for a quickie in a dark corner of the hallway before he takes you back to the Black Pearl for more ravagement.”

“If you don’t get a dick up in that hot pocket soon, it’s gonna grow over. You’ll never be able to have sex again.”
Diane’s the town gossip. She probably holds the world record for never shutting the fuck up.
“Exaggerate much?”
“No. You’ve dated three guys in the last five years, none of whom you had sex with. At least if you were a nun, you’d get to have sex with Jesus.”
“Sorry, princess. If you’re looking for a knight in shining armor, you’re looking in the wrong fucking place.”
If only she weren’t so goddamn beautiful. I don’t like to break beautiful things.
“You are beautiful,” comes the hard reply. “But it has nothing to do with that fussy fucking dress.”
“Simple is better on you. Perfection doesn’t need any embellishment.”
“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 need to kiss you.”
“Then come sit on my lap and let me finger fuck you while I feed you dinner.”
“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.”

“—that man is not the man you pass up when he offers you a ride on his elephant.”
“My point is that he’s a once-in-a-lifetime fuck. You could be having lovely daydreams about him at eighty when you’re in your rocking chair in the nursing home, soiling your diapers. Instead, you’re out here acting like you’re constantly being showered with prime sausages like confetti.”
“You have two seconds to get off that porch before you won’t be able to walk off under your own power.”
“I don’t know who the hell you are, but I’m a—”
“Dead man, if you don’t fuck off....

“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.
The point is that I stayed away as long as I could. A little bit of fucking snow wasn’t about to stop me from getting here.”
Holy Ghost of Christmas Past, this man smells divine.
“Interrupting me is one thing that will get you taken over my knee, beautiful girl. Sass is another.”
“I want everything you have to give, Natalie, for as long as you want to give it to me.”
“What plan is that?”
“Making you mine.”
“Don’t worry,” he says in a hard, dominant voice. “I’ll correct that bad behavior. I’ll correct it over and over again with the palm of my hand on your naked ass until you’re writhing on my lap and begging me to let you come.”
“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.
“I’m not going to play games with you. I won’t try to keep you guessing. I’ve told you what I feel and what I want. I’ll keep doing that until you feel safe enough to take the next step or you’ve had enough of it and tell me to fuck off.
“Because once you’re in my bed, you’re mine. And that’s it. Once I have you, I’ll never let you go. Not even if you ask me to.”
“That you’re honest enough to tell me what you just did … I suppose it should make me afraid, but instead it makes me feel safer. It makes me want to trust you. Because the truth is always so much harder than making up something pretty. I’d rather have the ugly truth than a beautiful lie.
“Careful, beautiful girl.”
“For a guy who claims to be such a bad scary criminal, you’re a big softie.”
“Only for you.”
“I’ll have to make you fall in love with me before I tell you all my darkest secrets.”
“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.”
“Good,” he says gruffly. “Because I don’t fucking share. Now let’s go get dinner before I tear you out of that dress.”
“Mine now,” he whispers hotly, his voice triumphant. “You come on my cock, you’re mine.”
“Is my woman trying to tell me I left her unsatisfied?”
If that’s the price for being with him, I’ll pay it. I spent too long walking through my days as a zombie to pass up this electric new life, even if it does have its dark sides. All fairy tales do.
“That’s where people go when they need to feel better: home.”
“Home can be a person, too. That’s what you are for me.”
And I can’t lose her. If ever I do, I’ll burn the whole world to the ground before following her into the dark.
“I’ve never met anyone I needed to possess like you. I don’t understand it, this obsession. For you, for a single taste of you, I would die. I’d give up anything. From the first day, you owned me.”
I might be the king of the Russian mafia now, but my queen will always hold the most power. Only she can make or break me with a single word.
It’s too bad I’m not the kind of man who prays. I could really use a higher power’s help right now.
