Kindle Notes & Highlights
DEATH IS A debt we are all born owing. It’s something that money can’t buy nor can it be traded. You can’t bargain for more time. When it’s up, you accept it like a fucking man.
I’ve never been afraid to die. Or to love, for that matter. Aren’t they the same? You surrender to a fate you have no control over. You don’t get to choose when or how you die, just as you can’t choose when and who you fall in love with.
I wrapped my hand around her throat, and she begged me to breathe. She stabbed me in the heart and demanded I bleed. She might as well have been fucking poison, but I would have drunk her anyway.
We were sharks and not all sharks can swim with others.
Don’t their fathers warn them of guys like me and my friends?
I’m jealous that he gets to kiss her, touch her, and fuck her for all to see.
She’s as dead as my best friend buried six feet deep in a wooden box.
But when you love someone, you’re blind to their every flaw.
I see Becky for who she really is—a slut I can use to my advantage.
“Men always think with their dicks,”
Honey, I’m the closest to hell you can get.
That’s right, baby, come to me. Let yourself think I’ll save you from the darkness when I’m really gonna drown you in it.
“I’m gonna kiss you now.”
I can fucking hate her while making her love me.
“Fuck, baby. Come for me,” I order, panting myself. “Show me how much you’ve missed me.”
We all spin around to see Demi coming toward us.
oh fuck
“What the fuck was that?” he demands. “That was an orgasm,” I answer. “Thanks, by the way.”
The man standing in front of me is what I’ve been looking for. He doesn’t know it yet, but I’m about to make him exactly what I need.
When I lied that I was pregnant.
And I can’t go down for that. I can’t go to jail. So I take advantage of this rare side of Cole and wrap my arms around my stomach.
i hate her
His words sting, even if they aren’t true.
“You’re fucking Demi.”
“I thought she was Becky.”
Guys only think with their dicks. Yeah, Demi, I did. But I was hard for your sister, not you, you little bitch.
“I want to show Demi just what kind of game I like to play.”
Murderers and psychopaths have always fascinated me.
“I can be your God, princess. Wanna get down on your knees and worship me?”
My mother tells me I’m sick and need to watch more Disney movies, and I tell her I don’t want to live in a fantasy world. I want to live in a dark one.
“Cole!” I growl, knowing who it is. Deke chuckles. “He’s not gonna help you. He’s my soldier. And if you plan on going to war with me, you’re gonna need an army. ’Cause you can’t fight me on your own.”
She’ll hate me when she finds out he’s touched me. More than she already does. Perfect.
i don’t like her
I could totally get into that.
this is going to be bad
She has to fall in love with me all over again so I can break her fucking black heart.
I come around you because I hate you. And I want my sister to smell my perfume on you. I want her to know I’ve been near you. Touched you. I want to watch her go crazy knowing I have taken something from her. Something she was so sure would be there when she decided to quit being a fucking whore and come back.
“Go home, Becky.” My teeth grind and I snap. “Quit fucking calling me that!” He laughs. “That’s what you want, right? To be like her?”
“You want me to want you like I wanted her.”
“You want me to fuck you like I did her?”
His brows pull together as if he can’t quite understand the thought of that.
“Do you want to be useful to me?” he asks. “Take her place?” “Stop!” I growl, getting pissy. “I’m nothing like her.” I want you to want me for me. Fuck Becky and what he felt for her!
With Demi, less is better. But her words don’t match her actions. She looks identical to Becky in every way.
“Can you lie on your back longer?”
Little Miss Priss wants a prince to save her, but this monster will rip her apart.
“Can you spread your fucking legs farther?”
“Can you suck my dick harder?” Her eyes narrow on mine. “Yes.”
But I don’t plan on touching Demi. Ever.
lies
“I don’t play with little girls.”
“You had no problem playing at Silence,” she growls. “That’s because I thought you were your sister. I would have never touched you otherwise.”
“Don’t fuck with me because you won’t survive it.”
“Don’t threaten me, Deke.” Her blue eyes glare up at mine. “I keep telling you that I’m nothing like my fucking sister. I’m not going to fall to my knees to suck your cock while begging you to love me. And I’m sure as hell not afraid of you.”
He’s too perfect for my sister.
as much as I can’t stand this new Mommy Austin, she is my only friend. And my only way to stay close to Deke.
she’s a bitch.
