Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1) QUOTES

1 " His heart is the rhythm, mine is the echo. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

2 " His darkness bled into me, inch by torturous inch, consuming me from the inside out.
It made me feel powerful.
It made me feel free.
It made the next words that flew from my mouth a plea that he never stopped.

He was dark and twisted, but maybe I was too. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

3 " I wanted to break you. I never expected you to like it. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

4 " He kissed my tears away and whispered sweet words into my ears. Words that he was too afraid to say out loud. He told me I was beautiful. That I was perfect in every way. And that, unconditionally, I was his. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

5 " A smart woman would have walked away then. She would have lit a match and set fire to the entire clusterfuck that was this situation. But I was never a smart woman, and if you didn’t believe me, all you had to do was ask my mother. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

6 " This was worse than a coke binge. Worse than black tar or the thrill of E. This was the devil himself snaking his way inside of my heart and bending me to his will. This was addiction, quickly morphing into obsession. And somewhere in the clouded fog that was my brain, I knew this was a game I was going to lose. "

7 " It wasn’t desire, it was biology. My body was adapting to the situation. Doing what it needed to survive. That, I was certain of. Because if I had liked it, liked the hands of this monster, that would have made me a monster too. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

8 " I needed to channel the darkness that ran through my veins and embrace it. To play this game better than this man ever could have predicted. After all, I’d only been with him twice, and already I could see his weakness.
His weakness was me. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

9 " I have no idea why, but I'm grinning back at her. This temperamental, wild creature in front of me who has the nerve to put me in my place. "

― A. Zavarelli , Echo (Bleeding Hearts, #1)

10 " Even if I hadn’t been looking for you, there was no way I could have missed you. There’s something about you I can’t explain. But whatever it is, it makes me want you in ways I can’t even describe. It wasn’t because you’re the perfect pawn, even though you are. It was because I wanted you, and nobody else would ever do. "
