Kindle Notes & Highlights
It’s over. It’s been over for two years. He’s wrong. If it was over, then what the hell has this entire trip been? The sex. The kiss. The need to hold me. We aren’t done.
“What are you going to do when I go to Hawaii with my family in January?” “Burn your passport before you can leave.”
She’s like my own sunrise. Beautiful. Perfect. She fills a part of me that’s been empty and dark for as long as I can remember. Maybe I am falling in love with her. Should I tell her? Would that scare her?
“Please tell me you’ll wear glasses while you’re studying?” “I have perfect vision, Freckles.”
“Only if you wear them while riding me.”
It’s like a mixture of love and not being able to breathe unless she’s around – thoughts that run wild wondering what she’s doing, where she is, if she’s thinking of me. It’s the butterflies that flutter like maniacs when I know I’m going to see her soon. The Stacey Rhodes Effect.
“Ride my fingers, Freckles.”
“Good. Remember that when you have any doubts. You’re stuck with me, Freckles.”
“Your cum is leaking out of me,”
“No, I’m serious. When I sneezed? Boom.”
I choke on my beer. “Sometimes I wish you’d keep this shit to yourself.”
“Will my Freckles be a little exhibitionist and fuck me in front of all these people?”
“Let’s go to the beach.” “I’m not into getting sand in my ass crack,” I
“I always fancied you – did you know that?”
“You had a strange way of showing it.”
“I wanted you from the beginning. I wanted you so fucking much, it drove me insane. I hated you because you were my sister’s best friend. I knew you couldn’t stand me.”
“When I got dared to kiss you, I begged myself not to fuck it up.”
“I want it all with you. I want to go home and tell everyone that we’re together, that we’re going to have kids and grow old together. Do you want to know why?”
“Because I love you. I’ve been in love with you for ages – it’s been all I’ve thought about. And I keep falling more in love with you every single fucking day.”
“I do. I’m in love with you, Freckles.”
“Are you going to be my forever, Freckles?”
“And over there” – she points to the cave next to the beach – “is where Kade told me he loved me for the first time.”
So needy. “I do love you.” My arms wrap around her waist. I was drunk when I confessed my feelings, but they weren’t lies. “You’re exaggerating, Freckles.” I place a soft kiss on her neck.
“Can we stay here forever?” “When it comes to you, Freckles, I’d do anything.”
“The only person stopping me from pulling my gun
out and blowing someone’s brain out is you – I need you. I can hear them. Taunting and laughing at me. I can fucking feel them everywhere, but I only want to feel you.” A soft moan slips free as he captures my bottom lip between his teeth. “Make them go away, Freckles.” “Make what go away?” I manage to ask. “The voices.”
“Always such a good girl when you’re on your knees for me. Taking every inch, your throat welcoming me home.”
“Fuck, Stacey, fucking keep sucking my cock.”
“Part yourself. Show me your pretty little cunt.”
“I knew you were delicious, Freckles,”
“Get on your hands and knees,” he says, gesturing to the spiral staircase. “And crawl up them.”
“Let go, Freckles. Strangle my cock while you scream for me.”
“If you don’t get off me, Freckles,”
“then I’ll fucking come in you. I don’t give a fuck if you’re on birth control or not. I’ll fill you with every damn drop and watch it leak out of your cunt.” He fucks up into me harder. “Your choice.”
“You’re killing me, Freckles.”
“You cheated on me a month after we lost our daughter. Not with just anyone either. You screwed Jason. My big brother. No matter how many times we fuck, I will never ever fucking forgive you.”
“You don’t need to beg me, Freckles. There isn’t a chance in fucking hell I’ll ever leave you.”
“I love you, Freckles,” I tell her. She sniffs. “I love you too. So, so much.”
“Who do you belong to, Freckles?”
“I belong to Kade Mitchell.”
“That’s my good girl.”
“I love you, Kade. I don’t think I’ll ever not love you.”
“I’m always going to love you, Freckles.”
“There’ll be no other ending for us, Freckles, because you’re fucking it for me.” Fuck. After tomorrow night, I get to have it all. I’ll finally have all of her.
“It’s going to be alright. We’ll try again. I promise. We’re just hurting right now, but we’ll work through this, okay? Me and you, Freckles.”
“Hey, Freckles.” I bite my lip and screw my face up as my ribs burn, taking a deep breath before continuing. “I’m so sorry. I’m so fucking sorry for not knowing what you went through or giving you a chance to explain what happened. I should have heard you out. I should have stayed. But you need to listen.” I wince and pull the phone away, so she can’t hear my groan of pain. “They know who you are, and
what we were. They’re going to come for you. Please. Please, baby, you need to run. Run, and don’t you dare turn back. Get away from all of them. You… you hear m-me?” My eyes close, and my phone slides out of my hand, but I quickly grab it. “Please hide, please.” My vision goes dark, and the tremble in my bones stops. “I n-never stopped loving you.” My heart is fucking sore, but I need to get this last part out. I know I’m dying. But the only thing I’m worried about is her getting the fuck away from those evil pricks. “I will… will always lo-love you, Freckles. Go, live your life and be free.
