The Rebel of Raleigh High (Raleigh Rebels #1)

by Callie Hart

“You’ve only been here one day, so I’m sure they’ll forgive the faux pas. I’m the pariah of Raleigh High. Sitting anywhere with me is the quickest, most efficient way to commit social suicide. I am broken, Alex.”

“It’s okay to be broken. You have every right to be. Just don’t let them keep on breaking you. That’s not how you win this particular game.”

I told you that you were a means to an end in the bathroom, that I wasn’t interested in you, and that wasn’t true. I am not trying to use you as a source of entertainment, though. I’m trying to figure you out. I’m intrigued by you.” “Why the hell would I intrigue you, for Christ’s sake?” He doesn’t miss a beat. “Because you’re still standing. Because, after everything you went through, you didn’t fucking break.”

“Strength is drawn to strength, Silver, and I think there’s a chance that you might be the strongest person I have ever met.”

“It isn’t just that. I also happen to think that you’re the most beautiful fucking thing I have ever witnessed with my own two eyes. I am watching you just as much as you’re watching me…and I don’t trust myself to look away.”

“I’m not going to force you to fall for me, Silver. You’ve already been forced to do too much. But don’t blame me if I try and change your mind.”

Alex isn’t safe enough to be right for me, and I’m not whole enough to be right for him, either. That’s really all there is to it.

A wolf and a rose—savage and wild, beautiful and tender. A dichotomy if ever I saw one.

“That's it then, Argento. The decision's been made. You're mine, and I'm yours. And the whole of Raleigh High is gonna know about it by five minutes past eight, Tuesday morning.”

This is the part when I realize you’ve stolen my fucking soul and I have no chance of ever getting it back.”

It was a boy with a clean record, a winning smile and a glorious halo who broke me. Ironically, it’s the boy with the rap sheet, a body full of ink and the dangerous glint in his eye who’s putting me back together.

The Rebel of Raleigh High managed to pull down the moon…and now nothing is impossible.
