Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Tu te sens tellement bien Pêches. Je ne désirerai jamais personne d’autre que toi.”
“Je pense que tu es mon soul-bond,” he says, breaking our kiss. My entire body is loose and lazy, but at those words, my eyes widen and I pull back from him again.
“Don’t you think it’s killing me to have to sit here and wait for you instead of—”
“You make me feel fucking crazy.”
“Likewise.”
“If I ask you to stay, are you going to argue with me about how someone might hear us?” “I don’t care anymore if anyone hears us.”
“I should care, but I can’t make myself walk away from you.”
I know exactly why I couldn’t let her go. Because I love her, and I deluded myself into thinking I could keep her here with me.
You’ll fall in love with her and you’ll risk everything to keep her, but I don’t know if she’ll love you enough to stay.
I’ll die before I let anyone hurt you. I can’t stop thinking about you. You’re mine.
Love and family are the only things that matter. Everything else is temporary.”
I’m doing this for me—and maybe, for the chance of happily ever after.
Being without her is physically painful, like I cut off my own right arm and let the wounds fester.
Alix will be safe, and that’s what really matters.
I can’t even think of what to say to her. I love you. I need you. Please stay here with me.
“I fucking love you, Alix. I love you–”
I love all of you, but I can’t protect any of you. I’ve exhausted everything I can think of and it wasn’t enough, so you have to go. I’d gladly sacrifice my last minutes with you if it means you’re safe.”
“I love you,”
The taste of him is intoxicating, like honey and fire and everything in between.
“I never thought I’d see you again.”
“There will never be anyone else for me. Ever. That’s how bonds work. I can’t ever leave you and I won’t want to anyway, but if it hasn’t kicked in for you yet you could still go. You don’t have to—”
“You’re saying I’m your soul-bond.”
“You’re mine, Alix. Forever. I’ll never think about anyone else, never want anyone else. I’ll follow you anywhere for the rest of my fucking life.”
“Let’s negotiate later, Peaches. If I’m not inside you in the next five seconds I’m going to fucking die.”
That doesn’t feel random, it feels like fate, and maybe I’ve never believed in fate before but I like the idea that Alix was always meant for me.
“I love these. You look like how I always pictured angels.” “You’re the fucking angel, peaches. And I’m glad you like the wings because you’re going to be seeing a lot of them. I can’t ever control myself around you.”
“I get it now,”
“What?” “Happily ever after. I never really knew what that meant exactly. Like what happened after the story was over, but I get it now. It’s just this. Us.” “That’s right, Peaches. And thanks to Thorne’s necklace, that’s going to be a really fucking long time.”
“You and me for the rest of our immortal lives. Think you...
