Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Yes, little siren. You’re the temptation designed just for me, the lure keyed to my blood, the song beckoning me toward the shore.”
“I’d smash myself to bits for you. I’d let myself be drawn to you, a thousand times and a thousand more, even if it meant my ruin.”
That’s precisely what this kiss is. A pirate taking the bounty he desires. A kraken hoarding a prized treasure close.
“I do hope you consider a second date with me, little siren. Because if that’s the only taste of you I ever get, I’m not sure I’ll survive.”
“Why did you call me, little siren?” “Because I…” Why did I call him? On the other end of the line, he silently waits for me to answer, patient as ever. “Because I knew I could count on you to help me,” I whisper. Elias lets out a short, harsh breath. “Always, Nora. You can always count on me to help you.
Mate. My mate. Safe and in my arms. If having her in my home was a powerful, primal thing, then this is something else entirely.
He came home for me. He helped me last night without a single moment of hesitation. I called, and he came. Simple as that.
“In all the years I’ve lived,” he murmurs into my hair, “I’ve dreamed of you, Nora. I didn’t know your face or your name, but I knew you. And I can’t tell you how glad I am I’ve found you.”
I’m here, I want to tell her, right here. You’re safe with me. You never have to worry that I’ll stifle you or change a single thing about you. You never have to be anyone with me other than exactly the woman you are.
“You’re going to come against my mouth first,” he says, lowering his face between my thighs. “And then I’ll give you my tentacles. Maybe. If you behave for me.”
