“You can’t seriously think I have anything other than appreciation for your bouncy Bettys or whatever you wanna call them. I just don’t want them on show for any and every asshole in sight,”
“Not the tits!” Tyler Corbin gasped
And now I had it, I was determined for this love to be my one and only. My last and everlasting.

And I’m never going to stop loving you either.”
But a quiet part of me knew it wasn’t true. In a world where the zodiac ruled our lives, our paths were just a roll of the dice. And once the dice had landed, our fate was set in stone. I just hoped our dice were still rolling. And there was a chance for us all yet.

“True Fae don’t have friends. Just people we can use or people we can destroy on our way to the top.

I’d been a thief for a long time and if I had to take my destiny from the clutches of the stars while they slept, then I’d figure out a way to do it.
“I’d buy you fifty of them if I knew they’d all make you smile like that,”
