Kindle Notes & Highlights
So, I force myself to hold Angelica’s gaze, to keep her eyes on me and not on the stupid, reckless woman who just stepped into the warehouse.
If I cut her, I cut you. Identical in every way, remember?”
They’ll find me. I’m sure they will. I just might not be alive when they do.
“Do you realize that at nine-years-old you single-handedly stopped your sister from becoming a serial killer?”
“I’m a detective, River. My job is dangerous, but I am good at it. I know how to protect myself.” “I know you can protect yourself. My worry is that you’ll choose not to again.”
“You don’t have to like it. But you need to let me do it.
my father doesn’t need a knife to cut me. His words will do just fine.
We will catch Maxwell, I will allow nothing less. And Freya is going to be by our side when we do, not wallowing in her own misery.
“There’s more than one form of torture, Kitten”
“She told me to run. She said no matter how long it takes, never give up on being free, because there’s a boy out there who’d do everything in his power to keep me safe.”
I will never fully heal from losing my mother but in this moment, with Freya in my arms, I know she would be proud of me.
“What if she sends me to prison?” she asks. Eli shrugs. “Then we’ll break you out.”
“You’re not going to prison, Kitten.” His gaze softens. “But yeah, I have a feeling we’d do a lot of stupid shit for you.”
Turns out I’m possessive as hell when it comes to my woman.
“I’m offering you a job as a profiler for the Serial Crimes Unit. You’ll be on Agent Park’s team, your primary case will be to catch Maxwell, but the contract is permanent.”
“You’re not the first criminal the FBI has hired, and I very much doubt you’ll be the last.
Welcome to the team, baby girl.
I drop back to walk with River. “Careful, your jealousy is showing.” His face stays blank. “Nothing to be jealous of. She’s mine.” I raise a brow. “Ours.” “Ours,” he reluctantly concedes.
“I saved your life.” “And I’d rather die than watch you sacrifice yourself for me again.”
your life is worth something. Is worth everything.”
