just because someone is not who you want them to be, it does not mean they are incapable of good.”

Are you going to come and save me? Or is prison too far away to get here before I die?

sometimes a person’s got a soul so pretty it makes ’em glow prettier than anythin’ else.

If I have to kill every single fuckin’ man on this goddamn planet to be with you, Lou, you better believe that I fuckin’ will and I’ll do it with a fuckin’ smile.”

You eyein’ the beast like you don’t care he bites.”

“Watch that mouth, little girl, or I’ll put it to better use, yeah?”

“What does a big badass biker man eat for breakfast?” “Virgins,” I deadpanned.

“Now, I ain’t makin’ you any promises here, little warrior, but if your fine ass is going to heaven—and it fuckin’ well is—I’ll find a way to get there too. If I gotta move into that fuckin’ church and pay penance every goddamn hour, I’ll do it. If I gotta give up boozin’, guns and drug runnin’, I’ll fuckin’ well do it and I’d do it now if it meant I got a place beside my girl behind those pearly gates.”

“So you must know Zeus Garro,” I said in a low voice as I served him more wine, watching the red liquid bleed into his glass. “Not as well as you do, but yes.” My smile was sharper than a shard of broken glass as I accidently slopped wine over his hand and then turned to him. “Then you’ll know it’s fucking hilarious that you think you’re so scary because, Javier, I’ve seen scary. I’ve fucked scary and I stared him right in the eyes as I did it so let me tell you, you don’t have his smile.”

“You lose your moonbeam hair, your bombshell shape and your sexual appetite, I don’t give a fuck. ’Cause I love your soul better than I love anythin’ else and that includes the fan-fuckin-tastic package it comes in. You got me, Lou?”

“Sorry,” I whispered. He cupped his hands around my face and pressed a kiss to the tip of my nose. “Love you even when you don’t.”

“Yeah, little warrior. See, it’s important to me you get that I’m in this with you. Can’t suffer what you suffer, can’t take that pain from ya like I want to more than fuckin’ anythin’. But I can stand with you. Don’t know if you’ll lose all that hair but if you do, I wanna do it with you.”

“A true fallen angel, too bad for heaven, too good for hell, stuck on earth like a living divinity.”
