21 " I'm too much of a 'do it my own way and fuck the rest of the world' kind of guy. "
― Maya Banks , Burn (Breathless, #3)
22 " And that makes Mia sad. But it's okay. She'll have Bethany. And me. "
23 " Don't want to lose you. "
24 " He wanted to tie her to him in ways she'd never escape. But they'd be the most loving, silken ties in the world. "
25 " You don't want me. How could you? You know nothing about me. "
26 " Just shooting you straight, Josie. "
27 " I'm more concerned with what you think. "
28 " She's not just any woman. I don't know, man. She hits buttons that a woman have never pushed for me. "
29 " Pink is you. Definitely your color. "
30 " So maybe my need of you is greater than your need of me. But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to do everything in my power to make you need me every bit as much as I need you. "
31 " I won't lie to you, Josie. So becareful what you ask. "
32 " He didn’t show you affection. He didn’t do things for you because he knew you’d love them. And, baby, that’s wrong. Your relationship with him was all about him. Not about you. It was about what he could take from you without having to give back. And that’s ten sorts of fucked up. It’s no way for a man to treat a woman he’s supposed to cherish and protect. "
33 " She'd been willing and able to submit because she'd been strong enough to come to him as an equal. "
34 " Part of the pleasure is the pain. "
35 " You seemed out of place," she blurted out. "You have very strong features. I was itching to get them down on paper. You have an interesting face and it was obvious you had a lot on your mind. I find people are a lot more open when they think no one is watching them. If you'd been posing , the picture wouldn't have been the same. "
36 " The gift of your trust. Nothing is more valuable than that, and you can't put a price tag on that kind of gift. I'd spend all my time catching up, because hell not it's not equal. What you'd give me far surpasses anything I could give you. "
37 " From what they've told me, I definitely think it's a good idea for you to go. But I'll be very disappointed if you don't come home shitfaced in a sexy dress and fuck-me shoes. It's all I've been tortured with ever since the last time they all went out. Now that I get to participate firsthand, have to say I'm looking forward to it. "
38 " -No voy a dejarlo cuando me acabas de decir que has sacado todas tus cosas de mi apartamento. ¿De verdad esperas que diga "de acuerdo, que te vaya bien?" A la mierda. La única vida que quiero que me vaya bien es contigo. "
