Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I hope you know I like it when you’re feisty.”
“I want to make sure that there’s no miscommunication at all. Because once is an accident, but if I stay here with you again tonight, it’s not an accident, and it’s not a mistake. It’s a choice.”
“Oh, Sunshine, I’ve been waiting for you for a fucking decade. I could wait longer . . . I would wait longer, if I had to.”
“My plan is to ruin you for every other man, forever. You just have to ask.”
“My god, has no one ever taken care of you?”
“Taking care of your needs feels like the bare fucking minimum, Alessandra. And if doing that ruins you, then prepare to be spoiled senseless.”
“Let’s get one thing straight. I think you’re fucking brilliant, and I love talking to you. But I love it even more when I’ve brought you so far over the edge that the only word you remember is my name.
I think I could handle anything life threw at me if I got to end each day with her, like this.
“God, I just want to possess you. I want to worship you and own you at the same time. I want to respect you at work and disrespect your body at home. I want every last one of your orgasms, and I want your heart.
“I’m not sure there’s anything I wouldn’t do to keep you safe,”
“You deserve so much more than what he gave you,” he says. “You deserve everything.”
You're not the only one who stands to lose something here. But you are the one thing I cannot stand to lose.
I can’t think of a single better reason to retire. I would do anything for you. And if you don’t already know that, then I’ll have to do a better job showing you.
