Bonds of Obsession (Pretty Ruthless Monsters, #3)

“Sei forte, mia cara,” I whisper, hoping the words travel straight into her dreams even though I know she won’t be able to understand them. “Questo non ti spezzerà. Non lo permetterò.”

you are strong my dear

“Sei forte, mia cara,” I whisper, hoping the words travel straight into her dreams even though I know she won’t be able to understand them. “Questo non ti spezzerà. Non lo permetterò.”

this will not break you. i won’t let it happen.

“We’re all a little broken, Killian. A little fucked up. And sometimes, we need to let that out. To feel it. To know we’re not alone in it.”

“Sometimes you have to fall apart so you can put the pieces back together stronger.”

“Non c’è un parte di te che non sia mio,” I growl against her skin. “Mio e dei miei fratelli. Nessun altro ti toccherà mai così.” The words falling from my mouth are like a prayer now, just as much for my benefit as they are for hers. My hands slide possessively up her sides. “Non condividerò mai con nessun altro.”

there is no part of you that is not mine. mine and my brothers. no one else will ever touch you like this. i will never share with anyone else.

“Not done yet, mia cara.” I nip at her ear, lifting and supporting her entire weight now so she’s bouncing like my own personal fuck doll at the end of my dick. “Not until I fill you up. You know how this works.”

“I was thinking,” he says quietly, each word careful and deliberate, “that I couldn’t let anything happen to you. Not while I could still stand. Not while I could still fight.” His voice drops even lower, rough like gravel. “And I’d do it again. Every fucking time.”

“Go ahead. Tell me it meant nothing. I want to see in your eyes that you know it’s a lie.”

“Don’t,” he breathes against my mouth. “Don’t make me beg, vicious. Because I will.” His voice drops lower, rougher. “I’ll fucking beg if that’s what it takes. Need this. Need you.”

“Please.” His gaze locks with mine. “I told you I’m not afraid to beg. I can handle it. I need you close.”

your so beautiful

“It’s fucking perfect,” I tell her, meaning every word. “That ink tells the story of exactly how it happened. Of how desperate we both were.” I catch her chin, making her meet my eyes. “And it’s from you, which means I’ll treasure every imperfect line until the day I die.”

“I love you.” The words spill out before I can swallow them back down. “All three of you.”

“I love you too, mia cara. I love your strength and your fucking stubbornness.” His hands slide up my sides. “I love how you fight for what’s yours. But most of all, I love that you can love both of these assholes as much as I do.”

“Because I fucking love you, and I know you love me back.”

“I’ve been falling for you since the day we met,” he whispers, his breath tickling my skin. “And I never stopped.”
