Kindle Notes & Highlights
“No man would have spoken to you that way, or pushed you off of him. Those things should be saved for the bedroom, with a real man, when you want those things to be done to you, for fun.”
His eyes travel languidly down my body. I watch as he pulls his bottom lip between his teeth, shuddering at the unexpected tingle of arousal that I feel. Abruptly, he walks away, leaving me breathless. “You look gorgeous, Emma,” Aiden comments just as he turns the corner.
“Take your hands off my girl,” I growl.
the connection I feel with her is something I’ve never experienced before. It isn’t merely sexual, it’s…primal.
His eyes narrow darkly. “You should be happy I’m not putting something else in your mouth right now.” He steps toward me as my mouth drops. He brings his hand up, tapping my cheek. “Is this an invitation, babe?”
“I want you too much. That’s the problem. I want to rip your panties off and fuck you until you scream my name.”
You’re fucking gorgeous. I can’t control myself around you. I need you to be sober when I do anything to you. I will not do it when you’re drunk.”
“I know you want me, Em.” His eyes burn into mine, his voice a soothing rumble. “I want you more, I can assure you of that. You don’t have to play coy with me.”
“When I fuck you, you’re mine. Got it?”
“Just marking what’s mine.” He smirks before kissing it once more.
“You’re mine.”
He can be demanding but that’s what I like about him. He knows what he wants, and I’m more than happy to follow his commands.
“I told you, you were mine. I meant it. I may have not gotten to fuck you properly, but I will. You’re mine now. It’s that simple.”
He laughs, covering my hand. “I told you, beautiful. You’re mine.”
“Emma, I know we just met, but I don’t give a fuck about what is normal when it comes to you. There is nothing I wouldn’t do to ensure your safety. Absolutely nothing.”
I wanted you the moment I saw you. I wanted you to be mine, no one else. End of the story.
“I’m going to prove to you why he doesn’t matter. Why no man matters, but me.”
Last night… it was fucking perfect Emma.
“You’re mine as much as I’m yours. End of story.”
“I will always want you Emma. Seriously, I do.”
“You’re mine, princess. I don’t give a fuck what anyone in the world does.
“I don’t want this life anymore. What kind of castle do I have if the foundation is cracked and the throne is made of glass with nowhere for you to sit?”
When you find the one, you’ll know. I know it. She knows it. Fuck. Everyone knows it.
“I missed you, baby. So much.”
“Emma and I are together.” The way he says it sends shivers down my body. A definite thing. A tangible object you can touch.
“You are never a burden. I already told you, you’re mine. You can’t separate us. You can’t make that decision on your own.”
I don’t give a fuck about myself. But, her? She is everything.
“You’re not some spoiled girl who has a driver.” A smirk crosses his face. “You’re my spoiled girl who has a driver.”
“I’m trying, baby girl.”
“You will never be unprotected. I don’t give a fuck if I die. I’ll find you and protect you beyond this world.”
“You. Woman. Me. Man.”
“You’re mine Aiden.” Gripping her hips, I wrap my hand around her throat, reminding her who’s boss. “As you’re mine.”
You can’t fucking go anywhere, Emilia. You can’t leave me. Ever. I’m weak for you. I’m crazy about you.” His emerald eyes shimmer in the rising golden sun. “You’re mine, Emilia.”
“You want to try to fuck with my girl, and yet when you face the consequences, you cower under me?”
He presents me with a single yellow rose. The gesture almost brings me to my knees.
“What are you doing?” I ask through my tears. “We’re slow dancing while they scream.”
“Thank you for you. I’m sorry you have to live without me.”
“I love you, Emilia Banks.”
He rescued her, traded her life for his. He may be a damaged knight, but a knight nonetheless in her eyes. His yellow rose, though sad and alone, will be safe and sound. Forever.
