Kindle Notes & Highlights
“From now on, tell me how you feel and ask me for what you want.” I hunch over to engulf one nipple then the other, sucking hard so she feels the pressure. “We can make love. We can fuck. I can do whatever you like.”
“Choose love over fair. Over duties. Escape, Dex. Do you understand me? Love, love, love. Fight for it. Obsess over it. It’s the only thing that makes sense at the end of your life. How do I get you to understand that? You should have loyalty to absolutely nothing else except love.”
I let you go in this life. But you’re mine in the next. I promise.
There’s love. And then there’s love. That kind that gives you no choice in the matter. Jacob once told me that love is an innate force beyond our will and comprehension. It’s how the universe humbles the stubborn human race, hellbent on forging destructive new paths. Love is how the universe stays in control of our fates. Some people can see that and accept it. Others ignore it and let it slip right by, living half-lives.
