Kindle Notes & Highlights
A light, misty rain blows on us in the breeze. We were born in the rain, I realize, as he plunges his rock-hard length into me, lifting me off my feet.
“I don’t know how to love you, Piper,” he says roughly. “But I know I love you a little more every day.”
“Love doesn’t have rules, Blue. The way you love me is perfect. And I love you. That’s all that matters.”
“I love you like there’s no tomorrow. Don’t ever forget that,” he says with his chin against my shoulder.
“I know, Piper. Your heart is my home. The way you look at me, the way you make me feel, is my home.”
Ladybug, It was time for me to keep walking. Take care of Acorn for me. If you can, try to leave a space for me in your heart. I’m sorry. I love you like no tomorrow, little slayer. Don’t ever forget that. ~ Blue
He’s been an amazing male figure in her life—especially since my father still barely speaks to me—but I can’t keep Lyric a secret from her biological father if there’s a way I can get in touch with him.
For Piper, keeper of my heart, you’ll always be my ladybug. Don’t give up baby, I took a walk, but I didn’t run away.
“I’m Piper...and I’m actually hoping to talk to Blue....” His eyes narrow at me. “Piper? You’re not the Piper, are you?”
“You’re the only one that’s ever looked past the dirt to see the flowers, Ladybug. That’s why I can’t let you go.”
“Will you call me later, too?” Lyric asks, which puts the biggest smile on Blue’s face. “What time do you go to bed, darlin’?” “At nine usually.” “Then I’ll call you before then to say goodnight.”
“I’m so sorry, Miss Karel. There’s no heartbeat. It appears the baby stopped growing at approximately nine weeks.” Three weeks ago, my tiny baby left me.
“So you’re all right?” Am I all right? I don’t feel all right at all. “I was twelve weeks pregnant,” I say softly. “And I lost the baby.” He lets out a pained sound. “Ohh, sweetheart. I’m so sorry.”
I’ll always miss Blue, but I welcomed Evan.
