Kindle Notes & Highlights
Mariya Koslov – the only woman alive with the power to drive me fucking crazy. Christ, does she drive me crazy.
“Of course.” I wouldn’t miss it for the world. It’s an excuse to be around the woman I consider my future wife.
Would I give everything for Mariya Koslov? I inhale deeply, my eyes burning over her creamy skin, the elegant curve of her neck, her stunning-as-fuck body, and her silky black hair. Yes. I would. It’s time to make the bratva princess mine. No matter what it takes. No matter what I have to do.
I fully intend on sharing a bed with you, mia regina. I’m already thinking of her as ‘my queen.’
“Whoever you have your sights on can go fuck herself. You’re marrying me.” I wrap an arm around Mariya to keep her locked to my side, then murmur, “Whatever you want, mia regina.”
“You’re the only woman for me, Mariya. I’ve waited patiently while building my empire, and now that I’m the head of –” I catch myself before saying Italian mafia in front of Elvis. “Now that I’m at the top, there’s only one thing missing from my life.” I step closer to her as I admit, “You.” My thumb brushes over the diamond on her finger. “Everything I have, everything I am, is yours, Mariya.”
“I can’t cook or do anything wives are supposed to do, but I love you, and I’m hoping that will be enough.”
“You’re mine, Mariya Cotroni.” Christ, hearing my last name attached to her name is everything.
“You’re probably going to want to kill me tomorrow.” I lean forward until my face hovers over hers. “But what I want, I get, and there’s no other woman I’d choose to be my wife.”
There’s no other way because now that I have you, I’ll never let you go.”
“And even though I’ll have to pretend that I don’t know you love me, I’ll wait patiently to hear you say those words to me again.”
“You want romance, I’ll give you fucking romance,”
“A queen.” I press a kiss to her mouth. “My queen.”
“Unless you pissed her off. Then fine means you better run.”
“I might be giving you to Luca, but you’ll always be mine.”
“I’m giving you my life, Luca.” “Which I’ll guard with my own.”
“I’m not losing a daughter but gaining a son.”
Just like my parents, we’ll become the power couple to fear after taking care of Pavlović.
“Dodging bullets and killing our enemies? It wouldn’t be our lives if it were any different.”
