Kindle Notes & Highlights
My monster is all tall, powerful, and beautiful. My monster is Aiden King.
“Promise you’ll marry me.” She holds out her pinkie. I curl mine around hers. “I promise.”
She’s all mine with a capital M. And now, she’s back. This time, only death would do us part.
Alicia used to say that in order to be accepted, you have to bare yourself. I never understood what that meant. Until Elsa. Now, I’ll do whatever it takes to be accepted by her. If it means letting everything go, then so fucking be it.
“Run and I’ll chase. Hide and I’ll conquer.” He places a chaste kiss on the corner of my mouth. “Time to make your move, sweetheart.”
“I don’t remember my dreams,” I tell the boy with grey eyes. He pinches my cheek. “I’ll dream for the both of us.” “Promise?” “Promise, Elsa.”
“Move that pretty arse, sweetheart.”
“There hasn’t been a day where I haven’t thought about you. Every time I manage to sleep, I dream of you. You were my obsession since we were kids, but now it’s way fucking worse. I don’t know how I managed to spend eight years without you in my life when now I suffocate if I don’t see you for hours.” My eyes fill with tears. “Aiden…” “Choose me, Elsa. Choose us.”
“My intentions towards your daughter are simple,” I say with the calmest, most determined voice I can manage. “She’s mine.”
“I couldn’t care less about families clashing. I’ve already taken a side and it’s Elsa’s.”
His thumb wipes under my eyes. “Don’t cry.” “I can’t stop.” “I don’t like it when you cry.” He continues gathering my tears and making them go away. “Why?” “Because it hurts me when you’re hurt.”
Squealing, I hold on to his back with both hands. “W-what are you doing, Aiden?” “I’m kidnapping you, sweetheart. It’s been long overdue.”
“I regret many things, but saving you was never one of them. You were my light and I had to protect you.”
“I want to be your queen.” “You already are.”
“I love that you’re mine. Now, say it.” “Say what?” “That you’re mine.” “I’m yours, Aiden.”
“There hasn’t been a day where you weren’t fucking mine, Elsa. You’ve been mine since that first day you walked in here. ”
“You’ll be mine? All mine?” “Yours. All yours.”
If we never find a way out of here I’ll die happy knowing I’m with the person I love the most. The boy I loved since I was seven.
“I love you, Aiden.”
“What I feel for you isn’t only love, obsession, or addiction. It’s all of those and more. Do you know what that means, sweetheart? It means I can’t live without you, so don’t you fucking dare leave me.”
“You’re the best gift I’ve ever been given, my queen.” “And you’re mine, my king.”
