Kindle Notes & Highlights
But instead of hitting me, his lips crash into mine. I let out a muffled sound of surprise as our mouths sloppily meld together, teeth knocking against one another briefly.
Gripping his sweater, I tug the collar to the side, exposing more of his flesh. He whimpers softly as I lean down and scrape my teeth across the mottled skin before biting down. Mine.
Such an impudent mouse deserves to be thoroughly marked until the whole goddamn world knows precisely who he belongs to.
"This is mine now, understand?” I give a pointed squeeze and he whimpers. “No one else gets to see or touch what belongs to me.” He nods. “Yours.”
My tongue darts out to lick it up, savoring the salty, musky flavor. “Ohhh, God.” I chuckle, low and deep. “That’s right. Keep calling me that.”
I sit cross-legged on my bed, sketching aimlessly in my notebook. For hours. I don’t even know how many I’ve completed, just that this rush of creativity has stemmed from the Russian asshat I’m falling for. The same one who flips through this darn book whenever he gets a chance. Like it’s his favorite thing to do outside of hockey.
"Promise me if I let you in, you won't use it against me, won’t try to take my dreams away." "I would never." I lace our fingers together. "I care about you, Alexei."
"What are you doing to me, Eli?" His voice is a ragged whisper. "I could ask you the same thing." I smooth back a lock of his dark brown hair. "I've never felt so connected to someone either."
Oh, holy hell. I'm in love with Alexei Petrov. Truly, madly in love.
"I need to fuck you until it’s branded on your soul that every part of you belongs to me. Not anyone else. Me. And only me.”
“This is my ass, my property. Fucking mine and only mine.” I grip Eli’s thighs, folding him nearly in half as I fuck into him like an animal. His pretty cock leaks ribbons across his clenched abs, and I can't resist wrapping my fingers around it. “Yes, yes. Please, there. Fuck . . .” I stroke downward, twisting just so as I tighten my grip. "Oh, fuck Alexei . . ." His ass clamps down like a vise around me. "Your perfect dick’s going to make me come so hard."
"What did you think I meant when I said you were mine?" My heart races at his words. It's what I've wanted to hear, but I've been too afraid to hope for. "I hoped it meant we were dating," I say, my voice soft. A low growl rumbles in Alexei's chest. "You're mine, Eli. My boyfriend. Is that clear enough for you?"
“He’s my boyfriend.” He takes a deep breath, his voice barely above a whisper. “And . . . I’m bisexual.”
"You might be my father but Eli is mine." My father turns back to me, one eyebrow ticking up. “Yours?” “Mine.” I straighten to my full height. “I love him, and I won't let anyone hurt him, not even you.”
Only Eli drops the coffee and rushes over, shoving my father away. “Don’t you fucking touch him.” I push Eli behind me, not wanting my father to lay a hand on my Solnyshko.
“What does Solnyshko mean? You've called me that a few times." I huff out a small laugh. "Closest translation is sunshine."
"I love you, Eli Holmes. All that I am is yours. You are everything to me." "I love you too," he whispers against my neck. "Exactly as you are."
“Here I thought I was claiming you and your damn ass laid claim to me.”
“If one strand of hair on his pretty little head breaks, I’ll rip someone’s throat out with my teeth.”
