Kindle Notes & Highlights
Sometimes we need a little pain to remind us we can feel in the first place.
Hello, consequences, my old friend. If only you’d show your face and punish me for the life I had to end. Maybe then I’d feel remorse or even empathy. Until then I’ll hide in the darkness of my insanity.
One day she will proudly wear my crown, even if it’s drenched in the blood of the men I’ve killed for her.
Riley Cross is my own personal drug, and I want to overdose on her. If I could choose my way of death, I’d choose her. I’d rip my heart out of my chest if it meant hers would beat a second longer.
“Love?” I gag. “He doesn’t love me.” “Ridge loves you the way Ridge knows how to love. It’s messy and chaotic. A bit distorted and morbid. But I can guarantee you’re the safest in his presence.”
“You are the only star in my sky, Angel. Guess
I never realized you were also shining in someone else’s.”
“You’ve moved me more than any human can ever move another. That’s not something I’m willing to let go of. Not in this lifetime, and not in the next.”
“I will never love you, Ridge. I want to be with Maddox and I want you to tell him it’s okay to be with me.”
I’ve always known I feel things too deeply and love too hard. But it’s not just Riley. I love my boys, too. A life alone is not a life worth living, and I can’t imagine doing it without her, or them. My happiness is in the back seat, and they’re all riding shotgun.
