Celestial Alphas (Nexus, #2)

by G. Bailey

I hate that he’s handsome. It’d be easier if he was ugly.

Because independence sometimes masks loneliness, and it’s not until you’ve been independent for so long that you realise you’re lonely.

“I will beg for you. I will do anything. You want me on my knees? I’ll be on my fucking knees forever. You want me to murder this whole entire city? I will fucking murder this entire city, and we can remake a world that bows for you.

There’s no line I wouldn’t cross for you. There’s no place I wouldn’t go. There’s no darkness I wouldn’t completely drench myself in to save you.

I only need to make sure I’m by your side so that no one has the chance to hurt you again.”

“I want you more than I want to breathe, Sun.”

“Don’t ever betray me again.” His smile is feral. “I’d rather fucking die.”

for the record, you deserve far better than a bastard like me, but fuck, I’m selfish and you’re mine.”

I could stare at him all night, all day, or whatever time it is.

I literally want to beat her out of my soul at this point.

I think she’s the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen.

I want—need—to know everything about her

Some men shouldn’t be allowed to talk…especially if they only talk shit.

“You’re so romantic.” “Bite me,” he snarls low. “I’m not really into that, thank you,” I mutter. Finnegan coughs, “Liar.”

“Do you think I trust you enough to tell you what haunts me?” “Yes, because I want it to haunt me, not you.”

It kind of scares me how much he has snuck himself into my chest and made himself at home.

“I’m never hurting you or leaving you. Not for death, not for anything.”
