“You know, I don’t hate you for killing him. I don’t hate you for leaving. I don’t even hate you for getting me sent to the middle of nowhere.” I swallowed nervously. “So why do you hate me, Leo?” He laughed. “Lady Abernathy, I hate you for coming back.”
ooooo tensions
“If there will be my ring on anyone’s finger, it’ll be yours,” he said. I chewed on my lip, my heart stalling. “You never answered me last night. Do you remember the night I kissed you?”
“I’m going to kiss you again, Christine. You’ll beg for it. Beg for me. Next time I get the chance, it won’t be a chaste tease. I’m going to devour you. You were meant for me. Always meant for me.”
his name is too proper for his ~filthy~ mouth
My goal was to look good naked, not to win fights. The type of muscle mass he had was only possible through roids or anger.

“I earned the right to care about Christine. I followed her. I watched her for three goddamn years. I flew out there for weekend trips. I took care of her. I got rid of every obstacle in her life. I made her stronger. You weren’t man enough to grow the fuck up.”
“Who hurt you?” She snapped her icy eyes to me. “What?” I wasn’t going to let her hide this from me anymore. “Who the fuck hurt you, Christine?”
“Because power allows me to be closer to you. To protect you. To take care of you. August is king, but I am not afraid to be a monster, Christine. A monster isn’t hesitant to fight or to get their hands bloody. I can accomplish things he wouldn’t get away with. I don’t have a moral compass, which means I don’t give a fuck who I have to hurt to get to you. Monsters aren’t afraid of the dark, baby.”
“Do what, Little Monster?” he whispered so softly I almost didn’t hear him. What the fuck? They had pet names now? I needed a cute name for her. Like mine or tightest pussy I’ve ever dicked.
