Kindle Notes & Highlights
“This is how women die,” I say. You see women on the news all the time who have gone missing. Never to be seen again. “Or they get sold.”
“Or do you no longer want me?” she asks. “I remember a time when you did. You could have had me, you know? I was just playing hard to get. And you chickened out.”
She’s mine now. I’ve waited long enough for her; he’s not getting his hands on her again.
“I loved that dress.” “I’ll buy you ten more.”
My brows pull together. “What does that mean?” “What have you always wanted, Titan?” Before I answer, she goes on. “What have you always wanted that you would do anything for?” I don’t even have to think about it. “You.”
Emilee is the full package. She’s the kind of woman you use in the bedroom but parade her around as a fucking queen in the streets of peasants.
fucking her like she is just another whore we found on the streets and wanted to use for the night. But the reality is far worse—we both love her. Just in completely different ways.
Jasmine plops down in a seat across from me. “I once sneezed while on my period and gave birth to a jellyfish.”
“I was confused at first because it was just sex, but then he said he loved me…” Her soft blue eyes meet mine “But he couldn’t love me the way you did.”
“You didn’t think you were special, did you?” And just like that, I fucked everything up.
Dumbass
She can hide all she wants, but I’ll find her. No matter where she goes. A king always finds his queen.
“I let you walk away from me once, Em. I won’t make that mistake again.” Tears sting my eyes at his words. “Did you hear me? I won’t let you leave. Not me. Not this time.” He runs his thumb over my swollen lips. “Stay here with me. Let me fix it. I promise I’ll get to the bottom of it.” The first tear runs down my cheek. “Let me take care of you. Let me love you.”
“She deserves to know.”
“Be careful what you wish for.” And then I head after my future wife.
