Kindle Notes & Highlights
Changed behavior was the only apology I was accepting, now, from myself or anyone else.
“You should keep your head up.” Luca pored over my features and said to me, “You’re prettier that way.”
began to relax. Look at me. His voice rang in my ears. Keep your head up. Visions of Luca appeared behind my lids. You look prettier. Snippets of the few words he’d said to me haunted me. Bringer of light. His haughtiness aroused me. “Ummm.” I squeezed my lids tighter, hoping he’d go away, but he wouldn’t. Ever. I wanted my name to fall from no other man’s lips after it had come from his. It belonged there.
Big, very big, dick energy seeped from his pores. It was apparent in the way he walked. It was apparent in the way he talked. It was apparent in his silence. I’d bet my last dollar that he was holding something vicious between his thighs and after so many years in prison, I was hoping to be the first meal on his menu. I wanted him to split me in two and suck on my private parts like oysters during fine dining.
Whenever I got a hold of Ever, she was in trouble, but before I conquered her body, I wanted to conquer her mind. It was the true treasure, and I was after it. All else would follow.
If I wanted you, I wanted everything that came with you. And when you became mine, what was once yours was now both of ours – kids especially.
“Imagine me offering you the world but you’d rather have crumbs because another bird has access. You really not ready.”
“I’m supposed to be wherever the fuck I’m at. What’s your issue?” “I don’t have one.” I frowned, unsure of what he was referring to. “Then why haven’t I seen you since I sat down, and why the fuck did our waitress change?” “Luca, she’s great at her job. Even better than me.” “Nobody is better than you, Ever. And, fuck her. I want you.”
“Fuck, make love… same shit, Ever. I’m trying to slide up in you again and again and again. Is that better?” “I don’t know.” I laughed, finally giving him my eyes. “Be ready around seven, tonight. I’m taking you out.” “Are you asking me or telling me?” “I’m telling you because I’m not giving you another chance to tell me you aren’t ready. I know you are. Ready enough, at least.”
In my last relationship, I’d overlooked so much in the beginning, putting my personal desires on the back burner to fulfill all of my exes. When I finally realized it, things had gotten out of hand and I was the only one unfulfilled in the relationship. It was up to me to set the tone for how I wanted and deserved to be treated, and I wasn’t going to let anyone off easily. It was either the best or nothing at all. I’d suffered long enough. Those days were over.
I came for what felt like an eternity, my dick constantly spitting rapid fire as Ever collapsed into my arms. My territory had been marked, and I didn’t play about shit that belonged to me.
“Please don’t wear costume jewelry around me. Never. If there are pieces you prefer, please let me know and I’ll see that you get them.”
I match energies, Ever. There’s no I in team and neither is there a big me, little you. My woman and anyone around me will always be a direct reflection of who I am as a man. If I can’t make sure they’re straight, then I’m not to be trusted.”
“Your woman,” she emphasized. “You thought I was sliding in you raw and leaving my imprint for fun?” “About that,” she started with a smile. “Like I was saying, my woman…” I pointed in her direction with a finger. “Is a direct reflection of me. Now, do you like the watch, woman?” “I love the watch, Luca.” “But what?” “I fell into my last relationship. I don’t want to fall into another the same way. I want to make things official. I want to be courted and asked to be your girlfriend. I don’t want to just fall into a routine and we call it a relationship.” She spoke her truth, and I was happy

“On top of being their mom, I have to be the cleaner, the cook, the laundry lady, the homeschooler when they’re not at school, the doctor, the negotiator, and so much more. I’d rather not do all of that while trying to be the perfect partner when I would rather just relax. I won’t feel like cooking every day. I won’t feel like cleaning the dishes every day. I won’t feel like clearing the laundry room every week or folding the clothes I wash. Some days I’ll be lazy and some days I’ll be fine. When I’m alone, I don’t feel guilty about that.”
“My man must worship the ground I walk on. He must give me the same love that I give him. When I’m in love, I’m limitless. I’ll always go above and beyond. I want that reciprocated.”
“And what’s your vendetta against beds?” she came back to life long enough to ask. “Nothing. We’ve got our whole lives to fuck up the sheets. Let’s start here,” I guaranteed her. “Trust me. I’m not complainnnnnnnnnnnnning,” she exaggerated as I entered her. “Then shut the fuck up, then.”
“That’s a new level of pleasure you’ve unlocked. Female ejaculation. It’s the only way you’ll climax from now on.”
“Give me forever,” I requested just before my orgasm hit, wanting to make my intentions clear for the one hundredth time. “Give me a son,” he demanded as I began to cum. “Ummmmm. Luca! Shit.” He joined me, gripping both my breasts tightly as his nut filled me. “FUCK!”
“Who gives a damn? You’re sucking rich dick now, babe. Let him worry about the bill.”
He walked into the room with a bouquet of the reddest roses I’d ever laid eyes on. I placed my hand in front of my face to see what had done the damage to my eye and was taken aback instantly. The pretty, sparkling diamond rested on my finger as if it truly belonged there. I looked from Luca and then to my hand and then to Luca again. “What have you done?” I asked. “Put a ring on it,” he told me, placing the roses on the table next to the bed and getting on one knee. I quickly sat up and tossed my legs over the bed. “You’re serious?” I asked. “Very fucking serious,” he assured me. “Oh my God.

“Thank you for loving every piece of me, even the broken ones.” “Thank you for having faith in me, even during the times it was hardest to. Thank you for coming into my life when I needed you the most. Thank you for giving me two little girls. Thank you for giving me a child. Thank you for always putting us first. Thank you for your selflessness. Thank you for your generosity. Thank you for that bomb ass pussy between them legs I can’t wait to get to once you’re healed.”
