Beyond Vengeance (Pacific Prep, #3)

by R.A. Smyth

I became infatuated with you. Watching you grow older, with your blonde hair and petite features so strikingly similar to your mother’s, I knew I had to have you.

“I’m not sure I know what love is,” she whispers softly, making my heart ache for her. “I’ve never experienced it before. I don’t know what it feels like…but if there was ever someone I thought I could fall in love with, it would be you.”

“I guess you’re kinda growing on me,” he grumbles with a small, barely there smile lifting one side of his lips. “Like unwanted mold.”

“Yeah, let's see what you’ve got, old man,” Mason taunts. Beck gasps in outrage. “What did he just call me?”

I’m nobody special or important. So why would he sucker himself into becoming a pawn for our father just to be near me? It makes no sense.

“I must have been drunk. It’s still fucking dark out. No human should be up before the sun.”

“You’re perfect for me, Little Warrior. We were always meant to be together. You’re mine—not because you belong to me, but because you own every part of me.”
