When love abandoned you, negative emotions easily slipped through the cracks of one’s broken soul to make us whole again.

was alive, and he had betrayed her. Left her to be tortured and battered in the clutches of a psychotic bastard.

I could feel my new self twist and warp into a person I should have feared. Where I should have tried to get control of her, I didn’t.

“Payback tastes a lot sweeter than your tongue. Than your cum. I’ll take the coldness of a blade before I let you brand yourself completely onto my heart. You had no right to begin with. It was never yours.”

“You were the only thing that kept me hanging on. If you think I’m going to let West win by taking away the only thing I felt was worth living for, then you are the fool, slave. Your love for me is in there somewhere. I don’t care what I have to do to set it free, I’m taking back what’s mine.”

“We were meant for each other, Everleigh. Don’t you see? I won’t let you fight this. You’ve cared for me more than anyone ever has. You have sacrificed so much for me, and I’m not going to let that be in vain because some bastard decided he wanted my life. You are my life. You once said you loved me. Tell me again. Feel it again so I can too.”

“You lie. You’ll never forget me. You love me, and I love you. It’s why my word right now means nothing. Men who love like me are not honorable, slave. We fight for what we want. We kill, if need be. You are mine. You have always been mine. If it’s a game of cat and mouse you seek, you have it, but I wonder if it’ll even come to that. I truly wonder just how far you’ll make it alone.”
