Kindle Notes & Highlights
I wasn’t interested in what Lindsey or anyone else was offering. I was too hung up on Lily.
Someone like Lily Ford wasn’t supposed to stand out, but in a room full of people, I only saw her.
“Here. This might help.” His hand found mine and he tangled our fingers together.
“It’s all you, Kaiden. You make me feel alive.” “No, Lily.” I corrected her, guilt snaking through me, squeezing my heart. “It’s all you.”
Her light outshone the darkness circling my soul, and I wanted to soak up every last bit.
“Fuck,
Lily wasn’t just some girl. She was the better half of my soul and he deserved to know.
“It matters to me. I hate that she took something from us… from you. I know how lucky I am that you chose me to trust with all your firsts, Lily.”
“Let me be your shield,” he said, fixing his steel gaze right on me. “Let me hold you up when you fall, Lily. Let me love you.”
His hand glided up the side of my throat, gently holding me. “It’s you and me, Lily. Nothing else matters.”
“I’ll always protect you, Lily. I’ll pick you up when you fall, carry you when things seem too hard. I’ll always be there, I promise.”
And I was so fucking relieved her dad hadn’t strung me up by my balls because a) I kind of liked them attached to my body and b) they belonged one-hundred-percent to his daughter.
