King of Depravity (Kings of Las Vegas #1)

by Tammy Andresen

It fills me with satisfaction, seeing her drink from the cup I gave her. Maybe she’s not wrong. This is getting kind of fucked up. I want to feed her?

I’ve had sex, but I’ve never slept with a woman. Right before I drift off, I wonder what other firsts are coming my way.

I look at Killian’s hands and I know he’s killed people. But I also think about his comment about having a monster of my very own. Is it crazy that there is some logic there?

I just watch her sleep, wondering when I became the guy who enjoys listening to her breathe.

“I’m just curious, yesterday you intimated that my brother was—erm—following you?” “Yeah. This is a lot less work for both of us,” she answers without taking her eyes from her work.

😂😂

“Have you been possessed?” Gris asks, shaking his head. “Don’t be a fucking dick,” I snark back. “There’s my brother,” he returns. I actually get his point. I’m not sure I even feel like me. Killing Preston aside, this calm has been filling me the past few days is disconcerting.

“I’d never want to hurt you, Chloe.” I’m surprised how deeply I mean the words. I’d do anything to keep the bad parts of me from ruining all her beautiful colors.

No one has ever loved me like this. Made me feel cared for, made me feel wanted. Not just for my looks, or my money, Chloe…she values me.

I don’t care what you take from my life, Chloe. Take as much as you want. It’s still way nicer to have you here.”

“I like that I don’t have to wonder what your true intentions are. I always just know. Even when I don’t like them, I know them and then I can respond to them. That is what makes me feel safe with you, when I don’t with anybody else.”

“He thinks he’s a dark void. But I think he’s like space. It appears dark at first, until you start to see all the beautiful specks of light.”

“I meant what I said, Chloe. You are my forever. It doesn’t matter if you never speak to me again after tonight. You could curse my name. You could turn me into the police and leave me to rot in prison. You’re imprinted inside me, and I will be yours until my last breath.”
