Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I need to take this, sorry.” Daemon waves me away. “Go ahead, Peaches. I’m not worried.” “Worried about what?” He smirks. “You’ll be back. I’m not done with you yet.”
In my head, I’m a slut. But in reality, I just read a lot of spicy books.
It just figures that the first man to give me an orgasm that rivals my vibrator would be a kidnapping serial killer.
Like any self-respecting child of the 2000s, I’ve read my share of fantasy books.
“Unfortunately, no. I wish. Human clothing is so interesting, I’d just die to be a part of your world.”
“I-I fucking hate you!” I gasp. “Don’t you dare let me go.” He smiles against my ear. “Remind me never to save your life again.”
“Alix, what happened?” Daemon demands again. “Um, nothing,” I stammer, pulling my blankets up to my chin. “You screamed.” “I just had a nightmare,” I mumble, my face heating. “It’s not a big deal. Go back to your room.”
“I told you, I’m not going to let anything happen to you. As long as I’m breathing, no one will touch you.”
“Keep your filthy fucking hands off her,” Daemon roars,
“I’m not going to wait around for any man. My time and attention belong to people who are thinking about no one but me.” Without warning, his hand shoots out and lands on the wall behind my head, boxing me in. He leans down so his mouth is mere inches from mine and bares his teeth. “Then I should get every single minute of your fucking attention.”
I shiver slightly at his use of the nickname I hate. Sort of hate. Okay, I don’t really hate it at all.
“But be careful what you call me, Peaches. Next time you say something like that, I’m going to take it as an invitation to spank you.”
“You’re so damn perfect, it makes me fucking angry.”
“Good. If you knew half the things I’ve thought about doing to any male who looks at you, you should be afraid. As long as I’m breathing, no one will fucking touch you, because I’ll kill them and fuck you in their blood.”
“Tu es tellement belle que je ne peux pas me contrôler en ta présence.”
“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.
