Why are you staring at me like that?"
Lifting his head away from his hand, he shrugged. "Nothing else is worth looking at when you're in the room.
The fake giggle is not that bad."
My friend grunted in disagreement. "It sounds like Miss Piggy has a machine gun stuck in her throat.
Joss laughed and looked up into Braden's face. 'Apparently the dress is good.'
'I'm getting that,' he murmured. 'Still, I'm more looking forward to taking it off you than anything else that day.'
'Braden,' Ellie bemoaned, 'not in front of me.'
'Stop kissing Adam in front of me and I'll stop making sexual comments to my wife in front of you.'
'She's not your wife yet,' Nate reminded him. 'No need to rush it.'
I snorted. 'Nate, your commitment phobia is showing again.'
He turned to me in mock horror. 'Where?' He patted his cheeks anxiously. 'Get it off me.'
Brushing my thumb across an imaginary speck on his cheekbone, I reassured him. 'There it is. All gone.'
'Phew.' He took a swig of his lager and looked toward the bar. 'I'll never get laid with that thing on show.'
'Charming,' I murmured.
And still Eden was avoiding him like he was a Bieber fan at a Korn concert.
So, are you a hero, Cole Walker?"
"What is a hero, really?"
"I suppose it's someone that saves people."
"Yeah, I suppose it is."
"So, do you save people?"
"I'm only fifteen. Give me a chance.
If we could only go back and knock some sense into those kids we once were.
What must it be like to be loved by him? I imagined it a heady thing, winning the love of a man who offered it so sparingly.
I love you. Okay? I love you. You're not alone.
Well, you know what they say about babies."
The soul eater smirked. "What's that?"
"Don't underestimate the amount of shit they can bring.
I miss our Would You Rather conversations and your hilarious answers. I miss your laugh. I miss the way I feel when I make you laugh. Like I just won something really important. I miss just sitting with you in perfect, silent understanding. I miss the way you never judge anyone. It's such a rare find, Liv. And I miss watching how kind you are with everyone. I miss being able to call you and talk to you about random shit and important shit. I miss my best friend. I miss you. I love you.
It was unrelenting and painful as it clawed and clouded his brain, reducing him to a saliva-ridden animal desperate to eviscerate the Jinn who dared to hurt what was his.

You really are a know-it-all pain in the ass," I announced snarkily, brushing by him rudely. I stopped quickly at Ellie and Adam to say, "I'm happy for you." And then I hurried by them down the hall to the bathroom to get away from Braden and his perceptive, growly, inflexible ass.
I know I don't yet, but I'll do everything in my power to try to deserve you.
His heart thudded rapidly behind its thick-boned prison, the pulse in his neck throbbing with anxiety. He almost smiled at that. If he weren't a vampyre his parents, Phaedrus and Xanthippe, would consider him an impossibly delicious meal with that vein pulsing them into temptation. Instead they looked up at him in bewilderment, their mouths and chin smeared thick with the blood and skin of the unconscious man in their arms. They sat crowded together on one of the pillowed kline's in the andron where his father held Symposia in their home. The man's feet dragged to the floor, the light chiton he wore coming undone from the obvious struggle he had undergone at the hands of Kirios' parents. Blood stained the fabric and ran in rivulets from his masticated neck to puddle on the mosaic floor. Kirios watched as it spread into the expensive tiling, wondering how on earth they would explain the stain.
Ugh." Joss strode by them. "You men need to grow up. Mothers have sex lives too. How do you think you were born?" "Like Jesus," Alistair said straight-faced. "And no other fucker is telling me different.
The Stars Are Not Wanted but the Sky Will Submit
When our eyes met again Craig's were filled with something…something I couldn't quite identify. "What?" I said softly.
"I think you just might be more than a little magnificent," he said.
This is Jai." She bobbed a head over her left shoulder. "And Charlie." Head bob over her right shoulder. "But today you can call them Ass and Hat.
I always get what I want, Rogan. Always."
"And what about what I want?"
Wolfe pressed a soft, tender kiss to my lips, the arrogance giving way to deep sincerity. "I'll always give you what you want, Rogan. Always.
Fuckity ... Shit ... Fuck!
You would think after numerous attacks of grief the human body would be unable to process any more sadness. But our hearts have an annoying amount of endurance.
You want to hit the gym with me?"
Ellie wrinkled her button nose. "Gym? Me?"
I eyed her skinny self. "You mean you're naturally that gorgeous?"
She laughed, flushing a little. "I have good genes."
"Yeah, well I have to work-out to fit into mine.
This was a man who'd fought long and hard to keep me, even when I was bent on self-destructing us. This was a man who understood I could be difficult and stubborn and a little bit irrational (okay, maybe a freaking lot irrational), and still loved me.
I'd felt lost for a long time after he left. It had taken a while to find my strength and independence again. It had meant hardening my heart and creating little locked doors in my soul so that only the people I trusted implicitly could ever make it inside to touch it.
Don't you get it?" he said, his voice gruff with emotion. "I've never met anyone like you before. There's no one like you. I keep waiting to not feel like this, because there are times I can't bear it. To care this much. To worry about you day in and day out, even before the attack. I love you so fucking much. I sometimes . . . I feel consumed by it.
By the end of this vacation you'll never doubt my love for you again.
Marriages are not perfect because people aren't perfect. But we've recognized our wrongs and we can make this work again.
The greatest lesson you taught me is that parents' actions and choices resonates into their child's life, sometimes affecting them in a way it never should.
Are you saying you don't want anything from me?"
"I want this. I want our arrangement. I want you ... " I sucked in a breath, feeling my control slip. " ... to fuck it out of me."
"Fuck what out, Jocelyn?"
Couldn't he see it? Was my mask really that good? I shrugged. "All the nothing
I swear his low, rumbling voice vibrated all the way into my panties.
Marriage is about leverage?""Yes."" title="Samantha Young Quotes: Marriage is about leverage?"
"Yes." Every single married person at the table answered.
"Yes."" width="913px" height="515px" loading="lazy"/>
This is forever." Pulling back to see her expression, Craig was gratified to see the surprise in her eyes. "You really think so?" she whispered back. "Aye," he told her as he kissed her sweet mouth. "I can't lose you again. No matter what happens I will fight like fuck to keep you." Rain gave him a slow, sweet, and slightly smug smile that made him laugh. "And so the realist becomes a romantic." He
It's never too late to change the road that you're on.
You had a fucking friend who needed you. What the hell was that, Jocelyn?"
He shook his head slowly. "Don't," he whispered hoarsely, dipping his head so our noses were almost touching. "Don't do this. Not now. Whatever shit your spinning in that head of yours, stop. She needs you, babe." He shallowed hard, his eyes glimmering in the streetlights. "I need you."
I felt that familiar choking in the bottom of my throat. "I didn't ask you to need me," I whispered back.
I saw it. The hurt flickered across his face before he quickly banked it. Abruptly, he let go of me. "Fine. I don't have time for your multitude of emotional issues. I have a wee sister who may or may not have brain cancer, and she needs me, even if you don't. But I'll tell you something Jocelyn," he stepped forward, point a finger in my face, his own hardened with anger, "If you don't see her through this, you'll hate yourself for the rest of your life. You can pretend you don't give a shit about me, but you can't pretend Ellie means nothing to you. I've seen you. Do you hear me?" He hissed, his hot breath blowing across my face, his words cutting though my soul. "You love her. You can't sweep that under the rug because it's easier to pretend she means nothing to you than it is to bear the thought of losing her. She deserves better than that.
This isn't over, Doc.
Friends, my ass," Joss grunted ... "The sexual tension between you two is off the charts." Her grin turned smug. "Reminds me of me and Mr Carmichael."
"No details." Ellie held up a hand, her eyes pleading.
"I wasn't going to," Joss assured her, but we knew where her mind had wandered by the still smug smile curing her mouth and the heat in her eyes.
Maybe it's time to grow the fuck up and live the life I want.
I'm not sure that's a good idea."
"Well I'm sure enough for the both of us.
You're very good at the flirting thing. Very confident for your age."
"I don't know about that. I've never really had to wor - "
"Work at it," I finished for him, quirking my eyebrow at him. "Confident or arrogant ... "
His laughing eyes narrowed on me. "You think you're pretty smart."
"No. I know I'm pretty smart."
"Now who's arrogant?"
I chuckled but shrugged. "Well, I have reason to be. I'm awesome.
In truth it's difficult to describe a broken heart.
She would see it as betrayal. Nothing more. Nothing less.
I'll wait forever for you, Michael Sullivan."
He shook his head. "No waiting required. I've been yours since day one.
Don't push me." She stopped and glared at me over her shoulder. "You're my friend, Shannon. I care about you, but if I have to choose, I choose Cole. So back the fuck off before I slap the fucking stupidity out of you.
Despite my tendency to keep eighty percent of myself to myself, I liked being surrounded by people.
There was nothing that could prepare a person for discovering they were a pawn in a war between mythical beings. Unless you know ... you were Frodo.
If you're to be mine I need all of you to be mine, because all of me is yours.
I tutted. "That's cold, Nate."
"Hey - " He pointed his finger at me.
"I'm not a complete shit. I realized later that night that it was a stupid bloody idea and I felt awful."
"Felt awful?" Nathan harrumphed.
"You cried your eyes out." I pinched my lips together to keep from laughing. Nate scowled.
"Manly tears. Manly tears of regret."

For the longest time my company is what got me up in the morning. It was what motivated me every second of every day. Since the moment you started working for me, you are what has gotten me up in the morning. You are what motivates me every second of every day. And still I want more from you. Tomorrow the day is all ours, because I want to talk to you about something.
We'll vote," Maia said. "And I promise not to vote for a chick flick. They're crap anyway. It's always about two idiots who apparently don't understand the art of communication.
Babe, nice lingerie is for seducing a man. I'm already fucking seduced.
He gave me a tight, triumphant smile and walked away.
My anger got the best of me. "You're an immature idiot!"
"I could give a fuck, Shortcake," he threw back at me. "And you started it.
What's your name, angel?"I" title="Samantha Young Quotes: What's your name, angel?"
I didn't know why I gave it to him. I shouldn't have. "Autumn."
His lips parted as he studied my face and hair. Voice hoarse, he said, "Fuck, that's perfect.

Seattle? With Caine? In a hotel?
I'd either kill him or screw him again.
"Fuck."
"Alexa, the speakerphone is on," Caine's amused voice sounded from my desk.
Oh, balls.
He followed you into the staff room and didn't come back for twenty minutes and when he did come back, he looked like he'd been mauled by a woman who'd been locked in an empty room without a vibrator, or a man for ten years!
You're not ... jealous?" He eyed me warily.
I shrugged. "I'll always be jealous of any girl who's had that part of you, but I'm not worried about it. If you wanted her, you'd be with her. But you're not. You're with me. A sound choice, I might add. "I smirked suggestively."
Jake threw his head back in laughter. "God, my girl is cocky"
"Pot, meet kettle."
"Good thing we're both attracted to cocky, then, huh?"
"Good thing.
She gave me a lopsided quirk of a smile. "Joss," her voice hoarse, barely audible.
I wanted to run. I know. That's horrible. But I wanted to run away from this part. People ending up in hospital had never concluded well in my life, and seeing her there, so vulnerable, so exhausted, just reminded me of how close we might have come to losing her.
I felt a hand squeeze mine and I turned my head to see Hannah watching me. She looked as pale as I felt, and her fingers were trembling between mine. She was scared too. I smiled reassuringly at her, hoping I was pulling it off. "Ellie is okay. Come on." I tugged on her hand and pulled her with me to Ellie's bed side.
I reached out for the hand Ellie had held out for her mom, and I slid mine into it, feeling relief and love as she gave me a gentle squeeze.
Violence should never be the answer.
Aye, in a perfect world. But sometimes animals don't understand anything but their own language.
After last night, there's no denying the promise of what's between us. I'm not backing off, so rather than coming up with a new defence – which I'm sure I'd find highly entertaining – just give in, babe. You know you're going to eventually.
He watched me the entire time. He watched me like he wanted to watch me forever. I knew this because I was looking back at him thinking the exact same thing.
Let's start with how you don't feel sexually attractive."
I gulped. "All right."
"Are you fucking kidding me?
Could it be? Had I actually found another human being who understood that VD was not a day for celebration but a cursed, commercial piece of bullshit lorded over by a tiny cherub-shaped tyrant?
As a matter of fact, I fucked someone else last night."
I physically flinched at his words, my body jerking back, my knees almost giving out, my eyes wide, and my mouth open in horror. And then the worst happened. I began to cry.
Through my tears I saw Braden's lips pinch together and he took two steps towards me, his whole body bristling. "I fucking knew it," he hissed, still coming toward me.
"Don't touch me?" I yelled, not able to bear the thought of him near me now.
"Don't touch you?" He snarled, his eyes sparking violently. "I'm going to kill you!"
...
"Babe," his voice rumbled, the tenderness back, although I could still see the annoyance in his eyes. "I was so pissed off last night when you broke up with me, so I just walked away. I went to Elodie's because I knew she'd be awake worrying about Ellie and I wanted to see if she was okay. She knew something was wrong with me as soon as she let me in. I told her what had happened and she told me what she said to you at the wedding, and she also told me that wen she said that to you, you looked like you'd been slapped. And after, when we were dancing, she realized she was wrong about you." He let go of my wrists to slide his hands into my hair, tilting my head back so I couldn't look away. "I spent last night govern over and over the last six months in my head and I know you're lying to me. I know you love me, Jocelyn, because there's no fucking way I can be this in love with you, and not hav
What?" Ryder huffed. "Come on that was funny! That was comic gold right there."
She shrugged, enjoying teasing him. "It was OK. Kind of elementary."
"Elementary? It's an effing joke."
"Whatever."
His groan could probably be heard for five miles. "Aw this is going to be a looong drive home.
Grace." His head dipped toward mine. "Tell me to leave."
"No," I whispered back, relaxing into the wall, and he melted into me with a groan. "I want you to stay."
He looked into my eyes as if searching for the answer to something. "If I stay I'm going to fuck you."
I trembled in reaction to his bluntness and licked my lips before I moved my feet, widening my legs so he could fit just right between them. His eyes flared at the movement, and I reached up so our lips brushed as I whispered. "I'm counting on it.
Just because it takes more than falling in love to find yourself doesn't mean that losing yourself in another person can't be fucking beautiful. I promise you, Pixie, being lost in each other for the rest of our lives will be the best thing to have ever happened to either of us.
That's easy. Gone With the Wind. Although I could slap Scarlett silly for most of the movie. I mean, who would ever choose Ashley over Rhett?
You're stalking me?""I'd prefer to" title="Samantha Young Quotes: You're stalking me?"
"I'd prefer to call it actively pursuing you.
"I'd prefer to" width="913px" height="515px" loading="lazy"/>
I'm yours," he breathed harshly against my lips. "I've never been anyone's until now. Do you understand?
Why it is that life can change so quickly?"
"How it's possible for a heart to stop beating so suddenly, instantly breaking all the hearts that were ever connected to it? But the truth is there is no sense in what happened to Jarrod. None that I can see. I wish I had a better answer, but I don't.
I want every piece of you. Even the stuff I missed without even knowing I was missing it.
Her guardian sighed and looked back down at his book. "I can't tell you how much I look forward to these mature and scintillating conversations. Still, when the old Ari pays a visit, let me know."
"Old Ari? I was sarcastic to you before."
"True." He nodded, turning the page on the paperback. "But there was this era bewteen scared, sarcastic Ari and this new-fangled five year old Ari where you were actually a decent person to be around."
Ouch. "Bite me."
Jai grinned slyly and looked up at her from under his lashes. "Just tell me how hard.
I'd never felt so intensely attracted to someone before. Usually, it took me a while to get to know a guy before I felt that kind of deep tingling in all of my good-for-nothing places.
I live on the other side of a pretty big ocean and that's not a small problem. We should discuss what that means before we go any further."
"No."
"No?"
"No. I want it so our hooks are so deep in each other it doesn't matter what problems we face, we'll do whatever we can to overcome them together."
"This is insane. We just met!"
"Yeah, we did. And yeah, it's crazy." He leaned across the table again, his voice pitched low and sexy. "But tell me you don't feel like you've known me forever. Tell me it's not just about sex. You feel it, I know you do. This is more than just amazing sexual attraction. There's a connection here, angel."
"How can that be? How do you know?"
"I don't know how I know. I just do. If people knew how this shit worked, someone would have written a formula for it by now so everybody got a piece of the good life."
"Oh my God." My fingers trembled as I reached up to push my hair off my face.
"We stumbled onto something special, Autumn. We would be fools to turn our backs on it when other folks aren't so lucky.
You are really tall for fifteen." His eyes drifted over me, a small smile playing on his lips. "A lot of people must seem tall to you." "Are you calling me short?" "Are you saying you're not short?" I wrinkled my nose. "I'm not delusional. It's just not polite to comment on a girl's shortness. For all you know I'm really mad at the world because I'm vertically challenged."

Relationship. Jo wanted me to know, though. She thought
Cam has done what I've been trying to do for a year. He woke you up."
Cam pulled back, smirking at her. "That's a little cheesy, Joss."
It was like he'd told her she'd stepped in dog poo. Her nose wrinkled and she shuddered, a look of absolute self-disgust falling over her pretty features. "I have got to stop letting Ellie choose what we watch on movie night. It's causing me to acclimatize to heartfelt emotion.
A piece of information can change a person. I'd hate to change the way I'm supposed to live the future.
Shaking my head, I wrapped my hand around the nape of his neck and pulled him down for a long, slow kiss. When I pulled back I rested my forehead on his. "They're perfect." I sighed, smiling teasingly. "You know, I think I might kind of love you.
You're living off your parent's money? At your age?" Oh no she didn't. I took another drink and then smiled at her in warning as if to say, 'don't play this game with me, sweetheart, you won't win.'
She didn't heed the warning. "So they pay for everything? Doesn't that make you feel guilty?"
Every fucking day. "Was it your money that bought those Louboutin's… or Braden's?
That's why, as I was leaving for work, I sent him a text that said something I had never said to a guy before.
I'm sorry x
You have no idea how fast my pulse was racing after I added the kiss. One little kiss and my hands were shaking.
I know you love me, Jocelyn, because there's no fucking way I can be this much in love with you, and not have you feel the same way. It's not possible.
Shit pours out of my mouth before I can stop it, and I need to be around people that can hack the fucking awesomeness that is me.
You're the one real thing in my life right now ... You should know I don't want to let that go.
All I know is that you probably deserve better than me, but I'm too selfish to let you. I'm into you, and I want you to be so into me, you don't even care that I'm not good enough for you.
Because reality has no authority there. My imagination controls everything.
I hadn't felt too awful lying to Braden since his three-sixty back into predatory hottie with wicked eyes and fuck-me smile was the sole reason I'd had to resort to lying in the first place.
Hmm." Ellie blatantly brushed her off, rolling her eyes and then skewering them into Braden. "Are you coming to dinner this afternoon?"
I watched the muscle in his jaw flex. He definitely wasn't amused by his sister's attitude. "Of course." His eyes travelled back to me. "I'll see you both there."
"Joss can't make it. She has stuff to do."
He frowned at me. "It's just a few hours. Surely you can squeeze us in?"
In response, Vicky pressed closer to Braden. "I'd love to have dinner, Braden."
Braden gave her a somewhat patronizing pat on the hand. "Sorry, sweetheart, it's just family."
Three things happened at once. Ellie choked on her laughter, Vicky reared back like he'd slapped her, and I felt a panic attack coming on.
Has anyone ever told you, you are the most despicable, judgmental, self-righteous, obnoxious fuckwit that ever existed?
You're telling me you're not icing me out because of Tamara?"
"Why would I?"
He leaned closer and I sucked in my breath as his citrusy cologne hit me in delightful waves. "Because of what's between us."
Trembling now, I whispered. "There's nothing between us."
The gloom disappeared from Cole's eyes and the gold seemed to flare as heat entered them. "Nothing but a shitload of chemistry I've wanted to explore since we first met.
You okay?' Nate asked warily.
My fingers shook with the hangover as I leaned across my sink. 'I look like the Bride of Frankenstein with a massive hangover.'
'I'd be hungover too if I'd just had to fuck Frankenstein.
I don't care if you've changed. I don't care who you are now. I don't need or want your explanations because what you did, you didn't do it to me, you did it to that girl you left behind. And I'm not her anymore. You made certain of that. She might have needed answers and an apology, but me ... I don't know what you're talking about.
I don't know what this is you're trying to do, but you and I are not the same." He took another step back from me. "And I am not for you. I'm not your white knight. I'm just the guy who wanted to fuck you.
I need to know." He brushed his knuckles across my cheekbones as he stared deep into my eyes. "I need to know so I can try to reverse all the damage they've done.
He continued to stare at me in an assessing way and I began to squirm uncomfortably. The more he stared, the more I stared, and the more I stared, the more I noticed how deliciously lickable he was.
The tattoos only made him more so.
What I feel for you … It's all-consuming,he breathed, leaning his forehead against mine again. 'It's almost debilitating. It's too much. It's … I can't even describe it, but being with you is … there's this intensity inside me all the time, this … constant pull, desperation … it's like you're branded on me or something. And it bloody well burns.
Cole Walker. Cole freaking Walker. All grown-up. And he was my new manager. I was so screwed.
Do you play video games, Liv?' he asked congenially.
'Uh, yes.'
'Well, stop cleaning up the dishes and come play with us,' he teased.
I chuckled. 'Are you asking me on a playdate?' As soon as the words were out of my mouth, I regretted them. I wasn't being flirty. I didn't know how to be flirty! That was just my sense of humor, and now this guy was going to think I was coming on –
Nate laughed, cutting me off. 'Only because you got the Star Trek reference. Otherwise, girls aren't allowed to play with us. They're icky.'
Deadpan, I crossed my arms over my chest. 'Well, boys are icky too.'
He grinned huge. 'Ain't that the truth.
Arm your fears like soldiers and slay them
We fuck, we have fun, and then we spoon. I don't go home ...
I was surrounded by love, and not some cheesy, overbearing, faux in-your-face kind of love, but real, intimate, I-know-all-your-quirks-and-habits-and-still-love-you kind of love.
