Now You're Mine (Possessing Her)

by Morgan Bridges

“Gone? Oh no, my sweet little bird, my obsession with you has only gotten worse.”

“I won’t let you leave,” I whisper against her skin. “I warned you that I wanted to own you, and I do. Every single piece of you belongs to me now.”

“Your capacity for forgiveness confuses me, but I need it,” I say. “I’ll never apologize for protecting you because your life is all that matters to me. However, I’m sorry for hurting you.”

“You think I don’t know that? Something inside me fucking died when I saw you lying there, covered in blood.” I reach for Calista, taking her face between my hands and forcing her to look up at me. “I don’t think you realize what that did to me, how it’s still killing me.”

Good thing she went to the doctor I suggested, the one that I coerced into giving Calista a saline shot instead of the actual Depo. I’m going to put a baby in her. If not tonight, then soon…

“All I see is you. All I want is you. When I’m not with you, I can’t think. You’ve

fucking wrecked me, but I don’t care. Not if it means I get to have you.”

“I didn’t want to love you, Callie,

but fuck me, I do. Possessively. Irrevocably. Completely.”

“Sometimes people have more than one side to them. The one they show the world and the one they keep hidden. That doesn’t mean you can’t love part of them.” “I don’t know how to love in pieces. When I give someone my heart, I share all of it.”

“You could do worse than him. He’s Hayden Bennett of House Judicial, the First of His Name, King of the Law, Wrecker of Pussies, the Father of Calista

Baristas, the Attorney of the Great Courtroom, the Breaker of Hearts.”

“If you told me to crawl, I would. If you told me to die for you, I would. And if you tell me to live for you, I will.” He presses his cheek against my thigh with

an exhale. “I’ll do anything for you and this baby, Callie.”
