“You’re a pain in the ass to be in a relationship with.”
“You should have thought about that before you kidnapped me.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“You, my love, just you. That’s all I need.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“No one is saying that you aren’t strong, Adalina. You’re the strongest person I’ve ever met. Fear drove me to stab my father when I was nine, but you never let fear drive you. You survived through sheer will. You didn’t let your father break you. You didn’t let his men tear you down. I want to hold you up and strengthen you, but I know that I will never be the force behind you. You are a complete person without me, cara mia. There is nothing I can give you to make you whole; I can only stand beside you and strengthen the parts where you are weak.”
“What’s in it for you?” Her eyebrows knit together in confusion. “What are you getting out of this?”
I shrug because I don’t know. I’ve never wanted a wife. I’ve never wanted children. I’ve never seen a family as an extension of who I am. I’ve always only ever seen myself and my future. But when Adalina entered the picture, I began to see so much more. We can be so much more together. “You, my love, just you. That’s all I need.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Cara mia, you are the definition of chaos.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I may have my moments of impulsiveness, but I wouldn’t label myself as chaotic,” she protests.
I snort at her, unable to keep a straight face. “Cara mia, you are the definition of chaos. That’s not a bad thing. It’s kept you alive.”
“Alive for what?”
“Alive to suffer through my father’s abuse? To be locked up? To be forced to marry a stranger?”
“You are alive for a purpose, Adalina. You lived through hell for a reason. I don’t know why. I don’t know what your experiences have prepared you for. But I know that your life is only just beginning. You’re going to change the world. Your story is going to save so many lives.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Luc is right, in a way. I wanted to save you, consciously and subconsciously. But it was more than that. You weren’t just beautiful or good in bed; you were a breath of fresh air. Your soul was the ying to my yang, the darkness to my light, the chaos to my calm.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Luciano sees my attraction to you as a threat to the family. I’m sure it has nothing to do with you.”
“Your attraction to me.” I nod as she repeats my words.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“When I saw you, I wanted you, I thought it was lust at first. I could have fucked mafia royalty from sea to shining sea, but there was something about you that called to me.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“She makes me laugh; she’s so cute when she’s angry.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Call me baby one more time, and I’ll kill you before we get home.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“You asked me to marry you when I was high on pain meds.”
“Well, if we’re getting technical, I think it was a combination of anaesthesia and pain meds.”
Adalina purses her lips. “I hope someone T-bones this car right now, and it kills you.”
“If you really didn’t want to marry me, you wouldn’t have said yes, high or not. But I think being high helped you get in touch with your true emotions for me.”
“If we don’t get T-boned, I’m going to murder you in your sleep.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“All I know for certain is that if Dante Terlizzi saved me from the hell I thought I would live in the rest of my life, then I owe him everything.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“The man before me is my savior, the white knight I’ve been dreaming of ever since I was a little girl.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“If you marry me, I’ll spend the rest of my life making sure you have all the pretty things you’ve ever dreamed of and more.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Saverio can tear me down and rip me to shreds, but he’ll never make me regret trading a lukewarm future with Lucrezia for a fiery, passionate love with Adalina.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“Whatever it may be, Saverio is gravely mistaken if he thinks I will regret anything I’ve done in Adalina’s name. She has become the sun the lights up my days. From the sleepless nights we spent together after the invasion to the peaceful moments huddled together, sipping steaming cups of coffee, she has become a person I never thought I would crave.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“If I have to come to hell to kill you all over again because you left me with your dumbass brothers, I will.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“You go do what you need to do, and I’ll hold down the fort. But God help you if you die.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“But I’d get a good night’s sleep before you go around marrying a girl like Adalina Martinelli. She’s pretty, but she has the potential to ruin your life.”
All women do. That’s why you choose the one you’re willing to lose it all for. And I think Adalina is that girl for me.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I never wanted a wife or kids, but she changed my mind. Now, I want everything, and I want it with her. And if she won’t give it to me by choice, I’ll take it by force.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“She is mine. From the moment I saw her at that nightclub, she belonged to me. I tried to resist the pull she had on me, but I’m no fool. I know when I’m beaten. And despite my best efforts, Adalina has captured my heart.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I have all the power. I can do whatever I want. But I only want Adalina.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I am powerless against the seductive lure of Adalina.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I don’t want to share an intimate moment with Adalina next to the warm corpse of her dead father, but she leaves me no choice.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“The abyss of Dante’s soul is unfathomable, a black void that rivals even my father’s darkness. His lack of emotion sends chills down my spine, making me question my own morality. If a man like him feels nothing when he kills, what hope is there for someone like me who feels nothing?”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“The blade of the knife that was so silver and pristine in Dante’s hands now gleams in red. She is beautiful, even if she is marred. Just like me.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“You will die knowing that your anger is the reason why you’re here. You will die with my name etched into your skin. You will die knowing cruelty and pain, the same way you forced me to live.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“He is yours now, Adalina. Break him the way he wanted to break you.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I wish I could cut off the dick of every man in Tommaso Martinelli’s service.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
“I want to carve my name into his chest. I want him to die scarred and scared, the same way I thought I was going to die on nights when his guards wouldn’t stop beating me because it gave them hard-ons.”
Cora Kent, Ruthless Sinner
