3 " Kieran took out another as his lip curled in disgust. “Just kill them.”

“Oh, well, I was thinking about keeping one.” Cold, clammy fingers grazed my arm as I whirled around. “You know, as a—”

“I was going to say friend.” Kieran looked over at me, brows arched.

“That’s even worse. "

4 " A low, humming sound came from deep within me, finally forming rough, guttural words. "It hurts."
"I know. You're hungry. But you can't eat Kieran. That would make me a little sad. "

6 " Casteel's head snapped down, his eyes feral and lost as they'd been the morning he woke from the nightmare. He caught one of the roots as it fell over my stomach and stared at it for a moment before he broke it, tossing it aside. "I cannot let you go. I won't. Not now. Not ever." His hand moved to my cheek, but I barely felt it. "Kieran, I need you to pull the bolt out. I— I can't—" His voice shattered. "I need you. I can't do that."
"You're going to..." Kieran rocked forward. "Fuck. Yeah. Okay." He tore through the roots. "Let's do this. "

8 " He exhaled heavily. "I don't think I've told you this. I didn't get the chance yet. When you asked me to kiss you under the willow? Deep down, I knew then that I would give you anything you asked for. I still will. Whatever you want," he promised roughly, his fingers tangling in my hair. "You can have it. Anything. Everything. You can have it all. I will make sure of it. "

9 " When you call me Cas, it reminds me that I'm real."
"Cas," I whispered, blinking back tears.
"Don't," he pleaded softly. "Don't cry."
"I'm sorry. It's just that I want..." Gods, there was so much I wanted for him. I wanted him to never have experienced any of that, but I couldn't undo the past. "I want you to know that you are always Cas. You were never a thing, and you aren't one now." I rose, easing him onto his back. The buttery light of the gas lamp flowed over the striking lines of his face. "You are Casteel Hawkethrone Da'Neer. A son. A brother. A friend. A husband."
I leaned over him, and there was no mistaking the deepening of the color in his eyes as his gaze dropped to my breasts. Clasping his cheek, I guided his gaze back to mine. "You are a King. My King. And you will always be my everything, but never will you be a thing. "

10 " Our relationship was never one of raw need. That doesn't mean I cared any less about her, but it wasn't like this. There was no constant need to be inside her in every way imaginable, and even ways not yet thought of. I never found myself constantly hungering, and I believe you need that to find yourself exploring those things with someone you're commited to," he said, and my breaths became shorter and shallower. "I never had what I have with you with her, Poppy. "

13 " —No me pidas que te vuelva a golpear. No voy a hacerlo —le dije. Una lenta sonrisa se deslizó por su rostro, y saboreé… exuberante especia contra mi lengua—. Hay algo tan mal contigo —murmuré. "

16 " —Estaba equivocada antes. Algunos no merecen el honor de una muerte rápida.
Un lado de su boca se curvó, insinuando un hoyuelo mientras su mirada parpadeaba sobre mi cara.

18 " —Ahora, no sé mucho sobre ser un esposo —dijo mientras puso mis manos en mi regazo, y realmente no tenía idea de adónde iba con esto—. ¿Sabes lo que está grabado en nuestros anillos? Está en Atlántico antiguo —me dijo cuándo negué con la cabeza—. Ambos dicen lo mismo. Siempre y para siempre. Eso somos nosotros.
—Sí —susurré, mi garganta se apretó—. Así es.
