Kindle Notes & Highlights
I accidentally fell into the dark place and then brought back some sort of hell-demon-beast thing, which laughed like a manic clown, picked up Ronnie’s knife and slaughtered everyone else in the room while I just screamed and screamed.
They’d stay with him forever. Maybe even in more than one sense…
I’m going to introduce you to three people I trust. They’re Scottish, American, and French.” Cinn snorted. Did they walk into a bar?
Unbelievably, the fucker smiled, revealing two perfectly symmetrical dimples. “Oh darling, how did you know I was into that?”
Years of taking absolutely nothing, and now drugged twice in twenty-fours hours.
The details were vague: a man, a year or two younger than him. A criminal record. And most importantly: a shadowslipper.
Stupid rich-prick princeling, messing with his brain with his pretty face. Pretty punchable face.
Most of the words seemed to be ‘hello’, aside from some notion of the singer’s demands to be entertained.
Cinn shuffled his body, stretching his leg out so his calf grazed Julien’s. The contact was completely accidental, of course.
Was it bad that Cinn wanted to be punished? That’s enough.
“Nothing. You look strange in those glasses.” You look hot as hell in those glasses.
And that’s when Cinn realised his error. Because he’d forgotten something vital—Julien loved games. Lived for them, seemingly. The smile Julien flashed him was as bright as the sun, and he was Icarus, about to burn.
“Do you trust me?” his fingers brushing over Cinn’s cheekbones in a reverent dance. “Let me show you how good I can make you feel.”
“Fuck you,” Cinn gasped. “I’m trying to.”
“Don’t deny how much you’ve wanted this, too.” Two ragged uneven breaths. “My cock in your mouth.”
“Mon dieu merci! J’ai cru… J’ai cru que je t’avais perdu, Cinn,”
Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light. I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night.
“Come on. I don’t bite,” he said, all predatory dimpled smile. Fuck yes, you do.
“Well, some promises are made to be broken.”
Besides, I want to do so much more than fuck you, beautiful boy.
“I’m going to fuck you so hard you’ll scream my name until your throat is raw.” Cinn choked.
You are the most beautiful thing, inside and out. Stay here with me. Never go home. I won’t hate it here if you’re with me. I think I’m falling in love with you. Non, I know I am.
