Peyton Quotes

“I just want to hit the groom. Once. Is that too much to ask?"

Saxton popped his brows. "Is that a human tradition for this type of ceremony?"

"Why, yes," the male said. "As a matter of fact it is--"

Novo slapped her palm over his mouth. "No. it most certainly is not. And no matter how I might have felt about my sister in the past, I don't want her special night ruined, okay?"

Peyton mumbled a little longer. And when she dropped her hand, he muttered, "First of all, I volunteered to do it after the pictures--and if it's realllllly important to you, I could catch him in the gut and not the face. I'm willing to work with you.”

“Come on, Novo," he said. "I'm taking you out on the town."

"You can't leave," Sophy protested. "Wait, you can't."

Peyton leaned in and looked the female right in the eye. "I can do anything the fuck I want, sweetheart. And what I am not going to do do is play windup toy for you as you ignore the poor SOB you're mating and disrespect your sister. I'd say it was a pleasure to meet you, but I gave up lying a couple of nights ago, so that's a no-go. And I'd wish you a happy life, but that is not what you're heading for.”

“So when are we going to fuck," he said in a guttural voice. "I'm ready to stop ignoring this."

Novo narrowed that stare even harder. "Never. How's never sound to you?"

"You want it."

"Not from you."

"Liar." He leaned in a little closer. "Coward. What are you afraid of--"

Her free hand whipped out and locked on his throat, her thumbnail pressing into his jugular and pinching off the blood supply. "Watch yourself, pretty boy. Or I might do some aesthetic damage they can't fix."

Peyton closed his eyes and swayed. "I want you to.”

“The door to the PT suite swung open, and Peyton appeared between the jambs with a bottle of liquor in his hand, an arousal in his pants, and the wild look in his eye of someone over the brink. In this current incarnation, the male was something right out of the Bad Idea Catalog.

And what do you know ... a blond male with an able body was exactly what she wanted in her virtual shopping cart.”

“At the end of the day Francis is not my kid, she's my niece.
Yes, but also who cares what word you use. Some Aunts are completely irrelevant, and some Aunts have been there since the day their niece was born. I had one grandmother i never saw and one who, when she died, I cried for 3 days. The word isn't what matters, it's the specific relationship. You love that kid more than anything on this planet. She knows that, and that's what matters.”
