Kindle Notes & Highlights
Aurora Harper sold her soul to the devil. It goes without saying that she’ll never be able to escape me.
Soon enough, I’ll make all her nightmares vanish, even if it’s the last thing I do.
Aurora is mine, and I’ll bring chaos to the world to protect what’s fucking mine.
“Is there anyone you consider a human instead of something you buy?” I don’t know why I asked the question when my main focus should be to get him the hell out of here. “You.”
“Don’t cry again.” His voice is hard yet tender at the same time. “Those eyes aren’t made for tears.”
He hesitates. It’s the first time I’ve witnessed Aiden hesitating. “Jonathan never looked at her the way he looks at you.”
If you leave again, I won’t only chase you to Leeds or Oxford. I’ll flip the world upside down to find you.”
“What if I disappear?” “Then I’ll burn the world that forced you to disappear and resurrect you from its ashes.”
One moment is too long sometimes. But other times, one moment is all it takes for a change to take place.
If he’s a hurricane, I’m the wind that gets off on the damage he causes.
“Your smile, like everything else about you, is mine and mine alone. I don’t share.”
I’ll bring the world to its knees in front of you. All you have to do is ask.”
“Because the world needs to bend the knee for my queen.” My queen.
Jonathan might be feared by the world, but as I stare into his sombre eyes, I find safety, belonging — feelings I never thought I would find again.
“I’m not protecting you because you’re a woman. I’m protecting you because you’re my woman.”
But how the fuck can I let go of the piece of myself I finally found?
Being with Jonathan is like free-falling without a landing. It’s finding oneself after years of being lost. It’s peace after a war.
He called me his queen once, but what he doesn’t know is that there’s no king to my kingdom but him.
“In case you haven’t figured out the answer, listen carefully, Aurora,” he whispers in dark words against my mouth. “I will not let you go.”
I don’t only love you, I’m obsessed with everything about you, and I’ll spend the rest of my life proving how much your presence means to me.”
