Kindle Notes & Highlights
I ignored all the signs and my instinct and went to him. I considered him my savior when he’s been my Grim Reaper all along.
The need to cut off his hand and feed it to the dogs overwhelms me. How fucking dare he touch what’s mine?
It’s like the ocean’s pull when it’s drowning you, or the sirens’ song when they’re luring you to nothingness. Reina has that effect on people.
“Didn’t you cheat on me?” “No.” “Do you expect me to believe that?” “I don’t care what you believe. I don’t have the time or energy to focus on anyone else.”
My villain and my savior. My damnation and my salvation. The only person I ever told my secret.
He really needs to stop saying things like that if all he ever plans to do is hurt me. He needs to stop touching me, calling me his, and looking at me with those intense eyes that seem ready to strip me bare and devour me all over again. My brain is starting to disregard the danger and focus on those small gestures, on what his body is saying instead of what his mind is planning.
She’s Reina, the only Reina I’ve ever known.
I keep coming back to her whether I like to or not. She has me under some black magic. It’s in the way she looks at me like she never looks at anyone else. Like I’m her one and only.
It’s the Asher effect. He shredded my soul apart and carved himself a cozy place in there.
It’s a weird thing, guilt. It’s able to eat you from the inside out and you get no chance to fight.
“Reina…” he murmurs my name like a prayer he’s been dying to say.
“You can’t leave me, not anymore.” His lips brush against mine in a brief, heartbreaking kiss. “You’re my world now.”
Reina always said shit about wanting to leave, and this better not be the time she decides to do that. I can’t possibly live in a world without her anymore.
He stares at me, and even in the dark, I feel his gaze swallowing me whole. Being in the center of Asher’s attention is like that, overwhelming and uncut.
We were always parallel lines, but even parallel lines can collide and become one. It’s even more powerful than two lines meeting at only one point.
