Jassemin - you’re my front runner. Please don’t end up being a twat

Gah!

“What makes half of her better than all of me?”

Clare’s mask is off…or is it??

Rainer & Xander’s heart to heart 💞💔❤️‍🩹

“The day she died is as imprinted on me as it is on you. I remember whose love she came back for and who’s killed her.”

💔💔💔

“I know I can’t have her in the same way ever again. It changes little in my mind. You should know well that love is beyond reason. I’ll love her the same whether I can or can’t have her.”

Rainer reflecting on when he knew he’d fallen in love with Cece…when his mother was dying and what he did for him.
💓❤️‍🩹**my heart**💔💞

“…Other days she cant get enough, like it’s the glue holding her together. Those are the good days — when I can let my live exist in it’s true form — something large enough to swallow both of us.”

“Every day she decides if she can let me love her. It’s hard for her. I guess that’s the immeasurable cost of all we’ve been through. Some days she wants to fight it and I have to make my love smaller — crush it down into something she can accept…”

“It’s like she’s trapped inside herself, stuck under the surface and I can’t get to her.”

“He’d been prepared for her anger, but not this terror.”

Poor Cece…I’m genuinely freaked out about what Vincent is doing in the background & possibly Cato. How much more can this woman take…if anything happens to Rain, I will riot.

Rainer vs Xander as Cece’s lovers has been such a crazy game of push pull but it’s so clear Rain is the one for her. But man, do I love Xander, even for all his flaws. But him continuing to make the same mistakes with Cece is so brutal. He’s finally seeing the damage & toll the past has taken on her. She is beautiful & strong but fragile & flawed…like her mother’s china, broken & glued back together.

Xander & his “too much” ~ makes me so sad 💔😔
