Kindle Notes & Highlights
So, officially, I wasn’t a virgin anymore, even if he decided to stop now.
Still, I couldn’t trust anyone with my virginity but him.
“Shit, Lilah. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“How exactly would that conversation have gone, Dante?”
“‘You want to come over and take my virginity? I’m about to go to college, and every guy has avoided me since I stepped foot in high school except you. You always know just
He’d brought me one every single time he came back to visit. And every time I squealed. My family thought it was just my innocent love for animals but it was mostly my love for him.
Our lips touched and it was like we both sighed into what we’d always wanted.
He didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable. It felt like my mouth belonged on his.
“This is going to be even more embarrassing to remember if you don’t just go now.”
“Go?”
“I’m not going anywhere. We’re starting over.”
“I’m going to make you come this way first, Delilah. I should have slowed way down before. Shit, I was excited.”
“I’ve been deployed for three months, and it’s
not every day the girl of some of my hottest fantasies sticks her ...
This highlight has been truncated due to consecutive passage length restrictions.
“Fantasies? About me?”
“And you got that look in your eye—the one you have now—like you were jealous and ready to do it better than anyone I’d ever been with. Were you?”
“You know I like to be the best at everything. I was valedictorian for a reason. And, honestly, I have a jealous streak a mile long from hearing all the stories about the women you’ve been with.”
“It was never a competition between you and other women, Lilah. You know that, right?”
“Half of this year has been me trying to stop picturing you every time I jack off, and I was on the verge of avoiding all family parties so I didn’t have to see how hot you look every time I show up. I swear you imagine fucking me every time you look at me too, little girl. Do you? Tell me I’m not crazy.”
“This is only the first high you’re going to hit with me, Lilah. I intend to have you come all over my face tonight too.”
“Another man touched you?”
“How many touched you here? All from school?”
“I … only two.”
“Names,”
“I’m so screwed for other men.”
“That’s right, baby. You wanted me. You got me here and hooked on you. You’d better be hooked on me too. Take it all, Lilah.”
“Remember, when you come this hard and get this wet, it means you’re getting fucked right. Remember not to ever settle, Lilah.”
“You’re the only damn person I would risk my friendship with your brothers for. You know that?
“You better make sure of it. No one deserves you if they can’t fuck you like me.”
Delilah Hardy had owned my heart, and now I owned taking her virginity.
“I think I love you, Lamb. I think you’re the one thing I love too much to let go.”
“Look at me, Lamb. If I don’t see your pretty eyes, you don’t see stars.”
“Fine, Lilah. Try. Try all you want. But if they can’t make you feel like I make you feel, you’ve got the wrong one.”
I’m not fucking your sister. I never did and never will because I had you first. I told you a long time ago I wouldn’t forget, and I haven’t, Delilah Hardy.”
“You dated one summer. She called me to tell me you guys made out.”
“Lilah, your sister and I went on one date. She tried to kiss me, and that was the end of it. I didn’t fuck her because she wasn’t you. You’re not replaceable.”
“I literally can and I will. I’ve done a lot more to people I don’t care about. For you, I’d drag your ass across the ocean in a heartbeat if I thought it was necessary.
“Do you forgive me for everything?”
I had all the women in the world, but the one I wanted was off-limits, and that just made me want to cross the line even more.
“You still don't know what your body needs the way I do, Lamb,”
“You’re beautiful when you’re angry, Lamb.”
“I intend to make you see that my torture for you is seduction, my punishment is pleasure, and you’ll only fear how much your body can take.”
“Eyes on the stranger who knows your body better than you know yourself.”
