21 " What was the point in prolonging the inevitable? He didn’t want her love and she knew he would never love her in return. Not the way she deserved to be loved. "
― Ella Dominguez , Chapter 8: The Complete Series (Chapter 8, #1-2)
22 " That man you created in your fairytale world doesn’t exist nor will he ever. I have neither the time nor patience for such fantasies. Real life is what you get with me, Elsa. Real pleasure. Real consequences for your actions. Real pain for not following my set of rules. "
23 " Mr. Black had taught her anything, besides how to stalk someone, it was that there was no Prince Charming waiting to rescue her from her mundane life and fairy-tales were for the weak-minded. "
24 " he would never love her. "
25 " They would learn to love each other, she repeated silently to herself. "
26 " It wasn’t pity that she was feeling. It was regret for the childhood he was made to suffer through. It was sorrow that he never felt loved. "
27 " How I love fear and anxiety; it’s what makes the world go around and the tides ebb and flow. It makes my blood hum and my cock hard. Yes, I’m a sick and depraved fuck like that. "
28 " what good is my sanity if Elsa isn’t there to catch me when I fall? And I will fall. I’m already falling. Slowly at times, uncontrollably at others, but always, steadily I’m descending downward in an endless spiral... I pray she catches me. "

32 " There’s nothing more you can say. I’m done playing your game. I need to love and to be loved… "
33 " I have enough for the both of us…” God, she hoped, prayed, she had enough for the both of them. "
34 " No other player will ever suffice or compare to you and I will no longer seek them out so long as you stay. "
35 " Submission and beauty have always been my weakness and you exude both while simultaneously maintaining your strength and defiance. It’s a heady combination for me to try and navigate my way through. Will I ever be able to rein you in and make you into the person I want you to be? "
36 " Secure the scarf over your eyes. Lie back on the bed. Wait. "
37 " Another song from her playlist came over the stereo, You Could be Happy by Snow Patrol and another, Embrace by Goldroom. "
38 " What filthy things are you willing to do for me? What can you teach me that I don’t already know? What can I teach you about yourself? I will know all your desires and secrets, I promise you, I will. "
39 " Hell, she left his ass when he denied her love, "
