Kindle Notes & Highlights
That’s why we have brains and not just hormones—so we can make good choices even when our bodies are like, ‘Yes, please, dangerous stranger!’”
“You’re mine now,” he says, rolling his hips up against me. “Every fantasy, every desire—I’ll make them all real.”
“Come for me,” I order, the vibration of my words against her most sensitive flesh making her gasp. “Show me you can be a good girl.”
“There’s my good girl,” I murmur, tightening my grip on her hair. “You’re learning.”
“By the time we finish our games, you’ll understand. You’ll see that I’m the only one who truly knows you. The only one who can give you what you need.” I brush hair from her forehead, marveling at how peaceful she looks. How right. “You’re already mine. Your body knows it. Your mind will catch up.”
“For your honesty, I think you deserve a little comfort,” I tell her, stroking her hair while my other hand continues working my length. “Your reward is simple—you get to suck on me. Like a pacifier. Just for a few minutes.” That familiar conflict flashes across her face. “No need to do anything fancy. No need to make me come. Just take me in your mouth and suckle like the good girl I know you are.” I move closer, adjusting her restraints to give her enough freedom to reach me. “This is meant to soothe you and calm your nerves before we continue.”
Kira has slept on my living room couch for sixteen hours and thirty-seven minutes.
“You’re all I’ve ever fucking wanted,” I tell her, the bittersweet honesty burning my throat. “My whole life. Every miserable fucking day. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“You’re my world, Mischief. Not the game. Not the hunt. You.”
“I love you,” I confess against her lips, the words I never thought I’d say to anyone. “I fucking love you, Kira.”
I, who never surrendered to anything in my life, give myself over to Kira Ellis without reservation.
“I’m just... average. Average weight, average face, average everything.” The confession hurts more than I expected. “I’ve spent my whole life being the girl guys settle for when they can’t get the pretty one. The one people call ‘cute’ but never ‘hot.’ The one with the ‘nice personality.’”
“I’m going to worship every inch of you until you understand that you’re a fucking goddess.” His voice drops lower, reverential and fierce at once. “A goddess I can’t wait to spend my life on my knees worshipping.”
