“You’re mine, Aster.”
He was going to hurt me, and I was going to hurt him, and I didn’t think either of us could go through that again.
“You’re mine. I don’t give a fuck who you’re married to. You’ve always been mine.”
“We can’t, Logan.”
“Oh, make no mistake, Aster. We will.”
I couldn’t handle the way she’d looked at me with those fire-agate eyes.
“This could get messy.”
“It always does.”

“What are you doing in here?”
“I needed to see you.”
“Why?”
“To know that you’re whole. That you’re here. That you’re mine.”
“You’re hurt.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“How can you say that?”
“Because I’m here…standing in front of you right now.”

“Because I have to.”
“Are you going to get into trouble?”
