Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You’re so fucking good for me. Perfect, and you deserve the world.”
“People wear many faces, Layla. If you leave it up to them to show you the difference between them, you’ll always be in the dark.”
“I know we’re apart, but you’re part, part of my heart and tonight you belong to me.”
I’m not ready for you to know, not yet anyway. Not until I’ve broken you down to your core and stripped you bare. Don’t worry, I’ll build you back up once we get there. I’ll always build you back up, take care of you. Even when you don’t think you need it.
Every moment away from her is a fucking battle. Fighting the urge to take her sweet body, chain her and lock her away from the world. So I can fuck, touch and hold her anytime I want. I don’t just want her at my side, I want to consume her. Merge our bodies, so she’s always with me. Bound to me until I take my last breath. I need her. I’ve never needed anything like I do her, not food, not air or water.
She slipped off my mask that day, laid me bare. Something about her was so raw and delicate. Her scars and insecurities were so fucking beautiful to me.
Layla feels like an angel dripped in fucking sin. Feeling her clench and come apart on my dick was the closest I’ve ever been to heaven.
Calling my sweet Layla my fiancée, she hasn’t agreed yet, but I couldn’t help it when I announced our engagement.
“You liked his voice. So, I took it from you.”
“You look so pretty when you cry.
“If I didn’t mark you, how would everyone know to stay away?’
“You insisted on being a fucking brat. Now take the damn pills or I’ll carve up your pretty face so badly only I’ll be able to love it.”
“Be a good girl and swallow.”
“Shhh, don’t be scared, baby. I would never make you die alone. I’ll come with you. There’s no me without you, Layla Burke. There’s no you without me.”
“My good girl, you look fucking beautiful.”
“Are you going to cry, baby? Go on, it won’t change anything. We’re going to continue this little dance until you realize how badly you need me. I will bend you until you break, Layla, until there’s nothing left of you but me.”
“You’re so fucking adorable when you’re mad, baby.”
“On your knees, Layla.”
“If you bite me, I will kill us both before I get to decorate your face with my come. What a damn shame that would be.”
“You look so beautiful sucking on my cock, little love. Do you like that? Gagging around me? You’re making it throb, baby. Fuck, you feel too good.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll let your greedy little slit come, but you have to be a good girl and wait.”
“Because you are mine, Layla…and I…I have always been yours.”
If she did die, I’d be close behind her and I don’t particularly feel like committing suicide, not when we’re so close to our happily ever after.
“You never have to be embarrassed around me, Layla. I’m entirely enamored with every part of you. You’re mine, right?” “Yours.”
My little love. Mine.
When this is all said and done, please know it was done from love. Every moment has been because I cannot and will not live without you.
“Who did this?” I growl through gritted teeth. She freezes before bringing her hand up and rubbing the mottled skin absent-mindedly. “Layla, who the fuck did that?”
“I would do anything for you, you know that, right?” Even the things you don’t want. The ugly nasty things only I know you need.
If I truly lose you, neither of us will survive it.”
“Of course I know who you are. You’re the stupid fuck that put his hands on my girl. That’s why I drove all this way. Nobody. Fucking. Touches. Layla.”
“We’ve come full circle, little star. Either you come out or it all ends right here. It’s me and you, baby, till the bitter end. I’ll have you with me either way.”
“You tried to run from me. Did you really think I was going to let you get away with that? That I wouldn’t punish you, Layla?”
“Good girl.”
