1 " Watching her sleeping form, I feel so many things. With a hand tucked beneath her chin, she looks like cotton candy wouldn’t melt in her angelic mouth. Whereas I know she’s the devil’s apprentice, expelled out of Hell to torture mortal men under her heel. Hell will be raised when she wakes, that much I know. I might even want it more than anything I’ve ever wanted. To see her react. She’ll paint me as the bad guy in this situation. Huh, maybe I am. Did I try to stop what we did? Not even once. I went full steam ahead with hardly any provocation. "

2 " With her around, I’ve felt a lot of pulls, some stronger than others. Possessiveness seems to be the forerunner. But there’s no denying she’s been my biggest inspiration for a long time. "
3 " I’m the son of a crime boss. Anything can disappear. This is an accepted fact, not that I’ve utilized that privilege. My father would be overjoyed if I did. But when it comes to her, I’ve learned that logic means nothing, and she wins every time. "
4 " My eyes betray what I feel by roaming over her like I own her. "
5 " She knows better than most I am not a gentleman. Far from it. I’m a hungry bastard with an appetite for one. "
6 " They say everything happens for a reason. Why else would fate put me back in the boy’s path. I thought once he was the and they live happily ever after one for me. "
7 " All girls love a bad boy, and he’s the baddest. "
8 " Tommy Bianchi, man of the smirk and impossible ego. "
9 " A Fierro can concede to a massive ego only so far. I’m too headstrong and outspoken to endure an attitude. From what I’ve read, Tommy Bianchi is nothing but a bad attitude. "
10 " Men are idiots. I love men; I love my family of men, but most other men are so dumb. They think everything is combative, especially rules. "
11 " Standing in the doorway, wearing only a white towel latched under his pelvic muscles. Tommy Bianchi is dripping wet. My mouth turns bone dry. Lord Jesus. Whoever made his image needs a big fucking bonus. Inked body. Olive skin. Defined muscles. Miles and miles of protruding veins. Dusting of dark body hair. And that’s without adding in his six-foot three stature. Yeah, I checked his wiki page last night to see what details his fangirls knew about him. He isn’t hard on the eyes. It doesn’t hurt to look at all that wet skin. Not at all. I can see why he’s been voted People’s Sexiest Man Alive. "
12 " It’s good I have thick skin. My stubborn personality means I’ll do better than anyone to rub that jerk’s face in my success by making them shine again. I’ll make him so pure and good that God himself will welcome that Lucifer wannabe home. Game on, Tommy Bianchi. "
13 " Play nice with the hottest woman I’ve ever seen in my life. Yeah, sure. I’ll propel myself into the sky and dry hump a cloud or two while I’m achieving impossible things. "
14 " I’ve never been so aware of a man in my whole life. His fragrance and height, the way he carries himself. His voice and demeanor. Every part of him scrapes against the inside of my head and I have to control the shudder. Unable to determine if its revulsion or something more murdery on the other end of the spectrum. It’s not through choice that I notice him. There’s no professional reason for me to be wondering what his sinful hands can do. With every glance at them, my thoughts become dirtier. He’s moody and his ego is bigger than his platinum disk collection. "
