21 " Because she knew exactly how it felt to want something you couldn’t have. There was no fair play for love, just for sex. "
― Pepper Winters , Take Me: Twelve Tales of Dark Possession
22 " He was the child that every parent hated. The one no one understood. The one everyone pretended didn’t exist. Not because he was evil or awkward or cruel—but because he was damaged and needed too much repairing to be feasible. "
23 " Is he an actor? I could use him. Fuck, I could write feature films about the way he walks. "
24 " I want to be that man who can make you breakfast and raise children without always looking behind his back. I am going to make myself worthy. I am going to get out so I can’t hurt you. But I can’t just walk away from what I do, and I can’t turn away from you. God help me, every time I walk away from you, I only see hell in front of me. "
25 " I didn’t know his favourite foods, or pet peeves, or even his birthday. I didn’t know if he was allergic to anything or how many assets he owned. I’d given him my life all because he proved he could love so fiercely. "
26 " And once she started, once she knew how sweet it could be, how would she stop? "
27 " I knew what he was about to do, and a sob bubbled up, tearing from my throat as I sensed the mere inches separating my mouth from the abyss. "
28 " Every time some guy made a move on her, he wanted to do two things. Kill the guy. And get her naked. "
29 " You are such a man.” She tossed her hands up and started walking away. “Well, yeah!” I called back. “You want to check out my dick? "
30 " Want. Take. He’d lived his life that way for so long, until it almost killed him. Until all his wanting turned bottomless and all he could do was drink and take and fuck everyone else. He’d never stop wanting, but the taking had stopped. He had control now. "
31 " Like he wanted me, not a body. Like he claimed me and cherished me at the same time. "
32 " Experience. Skill. Confidence. These things surface in a man’s eyes when he regards a woman. "
33 " If he needed to hurt a girl, why couldn’t it be me? If I had to be hurt, couldn’t I at least choose who hurt me? "
34 " In Los Angeles, windows separated the dogs from the bitches. "
35 " Every soft inch of her, an invitation to destruction. A body made for giving. "
36 " I bet you think about touching titties when you stroke yourself. When you’re worked up enough, you fantasize about banging a pussy with your finger. Then you replace it with your cock. Probably missionary position. Hard, fast humping. You take her without guilt, because it’s only a dream, a fleeting thought that vanishes when you come. "
37 " He didn’t want to take a girl. He wanted to give himself to her. He wanted to watch his touch soften her eyes, hear it in her breathy exhales, and feel it shudder over her body as she arched against him. "
38 " I didn’t think I’d ever grunted during sex, but that wasn’t sex. That was two animals mating under a bush. "
39 " What do you want?” he asked. “Fuck me,” I said with conviction. “Fuck me now. "
40 " To sleep with someone was the sign of ultimate trust. To be defenceless in the presence of another? No. It wasn’t an option with my past. "
