1 " I will lick, and suck, and cut any part of you I wish, as often as I wish, until you're begging me to slice you open and do it some more." My stomach flips at his words, shock mixing in with the sharp rush of desire that splices down my middle. "I want to consume you, Sara, until I feel you thrumming in my veins. "
― Emily McIntire , Scarred (Never After, #2)
2 " If something happens, know that I will find you in every lifetime, Sara Beatreaux. You are mine, and not even death can keep you from me. "
3 " You could burn down the entire kingdom until it’s nothing but charred rubble, and I would crawl over the embers with glee, so long as I could worship at your feet. "
4 " The truth is, I am yours. Wholly. Inexplicably. Painfully. Unconditionally.” He moves my hand until the dagger presses against his throat. “And if you need to sacrifice my soul so you’re able to live with yours, then do it. "
5 " No, little doe, not here. They don’t get your tears. "
6 " I’m going to kiss you now,” I tell her. “Why?” she whispers. “Because, ma petite menteuse, the thought of not kissing you makes me want to die. "
7 " I’m saying you could drive a man insane. Make him raze the world just to see you smile. "
8 " It isn’t fair for you to do this to me. Why did it have to be you?” He lets out a humorless laugh. “You think I wished for you?” His grip tightens against my jaw. “I would scourge the earth if I thought it would erase you from my brain. "
9 " I’d like to draw you,” I rephrase, moving in closer, my fingers dancing across her skin. “Just like this, with your face kissing the stars... I think it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. "
10 " Do you trust me, little doe?” he asks. My heart stalls. “No.” He smirks. “Good. "
11 " Meet me where you kiss the stars. "
12 " In a world of people who don’t see me, sometimes, it feels as if he’s the only one who does. "
13 " She’s strong-willed. She’s fire. She’s the devil, parading as a snake, convincing people to eat the apple. Ma petite menteuse… My little liar. "
14 " I hate her for making me feel like this; for making me covet yet another thing that my brother gets. She bewitches me, and I would rather rid her from the face of the earth than exist in a world where she tempts me but leaves me with empty arms. "
15 " Ma petite menteuse, pretending to be so pure. "
16 " Technically, there are no stars out tonight for me to kiss." I smile as Sara's voice. "Maybe they were waiting for you to arrive. "
17 " I would light myself on fire and revel in the burn if I knew it would please him. "
18 " Water is the most powerful element in the world. Calm when needed and ferocious when tried. "
19 " Would you like to keep pretending? I know you’re not the good girl you claim to be. "
20 " All is not lost until it is lost. "
