Kindle Notes & Highlights
Of their screams as they beg for mercy and I give them none, of laughing in their faces as I rip their throats out and bathe my hands in their blood, of them dying by my hand.
very edgy
I’d been able to get it up long enough to pump into her five times before the most anticlimactic climax of my life. Her elaborately faked screams of pleasure had done my head in. I’d thrown her out with clothes in hand and hadn’t fucked anyone since. That was over a year ago.
man pov’s are so boring
I’m caught off guard and I never get caught off guard.
🙄 uh huh
My cock is rock hard in my trousers and demanding I go after her. But more concerning is the foreign feeling that squeezes my ribcage and chokes my major organs. There’s a pinch that’s almost painful and definitely unrecognizable.
this is horrible to read
I’m bored. In fact, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t bored with my life. I’m so bored that I’m even bored of being bored. Isn’t that just tragic?
god if this is the writing style i’m already sick of this
And now I’m imagining all the ways I’m going to fuck her.
this guy gives major ick lol
He wets his lips slowly in appreciation and I almost come on the spot.
😐
“Put your brilliant mind to the side for now, no man will ever truly appreciate it anyway. This is purely physical. You deserve a night of really good sex.
this has gone on too long
And I’m going to see if I can find out who he is while you’re getting shagged.”
not the proper sequence of events
Anger festers in my belly. Why would he look at me the way he did, the way he is even now, if he’s hellbent on getting revenge for another woman? And why, in the context of what I just witnessed, do I fucking care?
yeah right now you’re just assuming and making things up….
His gaze drops seductively back down to my neckline.
god could you be any less subtle. major ick.
“Don’t touch me,” I snarl. “Everything about you disgusts me.” He snorts, laughing at me. “Is that why you came looking for me? Because I disgust you?”
yeah honestly. embarrassing. very try hard dialogue tho
She’s beautiful when she’s mad, her cheeks red, those delectable tits of hers straining to escape. If I make her angry enough, will one finally slip free, exposing one of the nipples I’m so desperate to bite?
oh my god enough. way too much
She blanches and I’m seconds away from coming in my trousers at the sight of her pale face losing all its color.
🙄
She finally spots me standing arms crossed in the far corner of his office and her expression grows first alarmed, then wary. Heat splashes across her cheeks, whether out of surprise or arousal, I’m not sure.
why would she be aroused
It’s like the experience of having pop rocks for the first time — surprising, confusing, addicting, and it immediately has you going back in for more.
🤨
“You are. I can feel it in the way you’re panting. Those hot breaths hit the side of my face every time I touch you.
i do not like him
“Do you even know it? Are you even conscious of the dark urges you have, of the fantasies that you suffocate inside you because you think good girls like you shouldn’t have them?”
bro stfu
I’m faltering from making a decision I’d otherwise make in a heartbeat because I don’t want my fiancée to be sad. What the actual fuck? Since when do I fucking care?
🙄
Never mind. I whip my gun out and have it pressed against his forehead in the next breath. “Watch it,” I hiss.
this guy isn’t even unhinged in a cute way. he just has anger issues
“Oh my god, did you read the whole thing?” she wails.
yeah that’s so embarrassing idk why you’d leave your diary behind
And you were right,” I chant, my voice thickening with lust. “I do have a big cock. I’d show you now, but he’s really only available for in-person introductions.”
this guy really does not shut the fuck up. no subtlety at all
“You’re horny for my dick and you haven’t taken off the proof that you’re mine,” I growl, voice so low it’s barely audible. “Come to me tonight and I’ll make those dreams a reality.”
she’s just so smart though 🤨
His top half isn’t visible yet but whoever he is, he must be late because he’s running furiously to catch the train. I feel bad that he's just missed it.
who could that be 🙄 she’s definitely not bright
Reality crashes in, shattering our bubble. I’m ashamed to say I momentarily forgot about my brother.
this bitch is so smart that she leads this psycho maniac right to her brother?? knowing that he’s following her everywhere she goes?? and then forgets about her brother?? girl bye
I whimper and his thumb rubs gentle circles on the side of my neck. A more naive girl would mistake the gesture as being soothing, but I know he’s just trying to manipulate me into giving him what he wants.
yeah we’ve already established you’re a genius lol
But I only find deep satisfaction burning in his irises. “Yeah,” he purrs. “You do.”
🤢
Thankfully the car is soundproofed, otherwise I’d have to shoot Arturo and Marco for listening to sounds that belong to me.
i hate this dude. reading in his pov is insufferable
“I’d never kill you, I think about you too much,” he admits almost offhandedly.
🙄
“That’s good to hear. Do you want to know what the punishment is for disrespecting my wife?” “No, it’s–” “Death.” I throw my cards on the table. “Do you want to rethink your question?”
wow he is so cool 🙄 this dude is so fn annoying. i don’t think ive found one line of his attractive in any capacity
I throw my head back and laugh. Yet again I’ve underestimated her. That’s not a mistake I’ll make a third time.
she speaks elementary spanish. dang she really got you! so clever!
Butterflies erupt in my belly. I immediately want to douse them in flames. Nothing he does should be attractive to me.
nothing he does is attractive
The ice cream can go straight to the trash for all I care, the gesture is meaningless. “Please don’t speak to me about Adriana again, Diana. I don’t want to hear it.”
this is so stupid. i don’t want to deal with the miscommunication trope
“Where do you think you’re going, Barbie?” a rude voice asks from behind me.
a rude voice 🙄
Five minutes ago, I likely would have been able to ignore and brush off the sneered nickname. But fresh off my conversation with Diana, I’m spoiling for a fight.
🫤 yeah diana really went crazy on you. dumb bitch
“Joder, stop!”
i can’t find what this word means
Thiago sits behind his desk surrounded by a group of his men, each looking more dangerous than the next. Each looking at me like I’ve lost my mind. And maybe I have because the deadly quiet has a dousing effect on my anger.
that’s super embarrassing. why didn’t he lock the door
“I give you a long leash because your mouth amuses me, but don’t forget who I am. Disrespect me in front of my men again and I’ll fix your attitude for you while they watch.” He squeezes my throat and I whimper. “Got it?”
okay that line’s not too bad
After licking the ice cream off my finger last night, I gave an excuse about being tired and ran out of the kitchen.
i hate these narrative recaps. they sound so stupid
A powerful ache pulsates in my core.
stfu
She puts her hand on my arm and officially pisses me the fuck off. Everyone in the cartel knows I got married two weeks ago and by touching me, she’s disrespecting my wife.
i cannot stand this dude
Rolling my eyes, I take the phone from her and look at the picture, expecting to be unmoved. Instead, I’m struck by the expression on my face. By the way I look up at Thiago; lips parted, eyes hooded and fixed intently on him, my stare…longing.
🤢
Guilt lances through me. I’m a terrible friend, I can’t even listen to her for five minutes without worrying about my own problems.
YEAH YOU SUCK!!!! SHE LITERALLY GOT SHOT FOR YOU AND YOURE STANDING THERE GETTING WET OVER THE GUY WHO DID IT!!!!
“Who the hell is she?” I snap. “That’s two women you let touch you tonight, Thiago. Two.”
oh my god she’s insufferable too
Pressure explodes bright and white behind my eye and I black out.
lol k. i don’t know how you can manage being the cartel boss
Leone never spoke, he never gave us anything to go on from here, and I killed him. He was trying to get me to do exactly that and I lost my shit and fell for it in less than ten minutes.
so cool 🙄 fucking idiot. i hate this dude
“Ah, querida,
JESSE DE SILVA ♡
Over the past week, I’d woken up on more than one occasion in the middle of the night,
this book is really bad with telling and not showing
My stomach twists in revolt at the thought and bile rises into my throat. I can’t let this happen, I won’t survive that kind of victimization. I’d rather he kill me.
well it was fine when the “hot” rapist did it though 🙄
When they close around it, I realize it’s my Women in Business award I received last year. I won it based on the vote of hundreds of my peers for my contributions to the media profession and the broader industry at large. It was the proudest day of my life, my crowning achievement to date, one I’d worked myself to the bone to get.
oh yeah sure you did 🙄 STFU
