Kindle Notes & Highlights
"You clearly intend to continue stalking me." "For the rest of this life and into the Beyond, yes."
Crypt leans back down and whispers near my ear, his breath caressing my neck and sending a delicious shiver down my spine that I try to hide. "All right. Keep your secrets. Just promise to keep me, too."
"Yes, you are. You're mine, and I'm yours—end of the motherfucking story. The end. Get over it."
You guys have no fucking idea how bad it would be to be bound to me. I'm protecting you idiots. I refuse to drag you four down with me. I'm your enemy. All her past words swim in my head until I cover my face. "Holy shit." My mate is from the Nether.
Silas is quiet for a long moment, and then he sighs. “If the gods chose her to punish me even further, they couldn’t have picked a more frustrating, heavenly demise. Nothing changes for me, either. She’s ima sangfluir.”
"You want my forgiveness?" I whisper. "Fine. Beg for it." "Please—"
I need more—all of her, every haunting puzzle piece, and I must find a way to make her need me just as badly. So badly that she'll let me into her head and her bed every night.
"Eireach chial, thiga ais thu'ganh," I murmur in fae. Come back to me, handsome lunatic.
Obsession, on the other hand? That's dark and twisted. It's real. I'm much more comfortable getting unhealthily obsessed or borderline manic over someone else. Anything but falling for them. That sounds awful.
"You're too good for me, Oakley," he whispers. "That's ironic since I'm literally a monster sent from hell. Just how lowly do you think of yourself?" I ask, tracing his perfect features.
I don't know who Lillian is, but hearing the rough scratchiness of her voice makes me desperate to fix what I just did. I reach for the bruises on her throat, determined to erase them, but despair fills me again when I remember I can't even fucking heal her. Am I truly so useless to the woman I love?
Somehow, without a heart and without the blessing of the gods… I've been bound to Silas Crane.
