1 " We’ll give you two a minute,” Eve says softly.“I’m not going anywhere,” Drake tells her in a bored drawl. “Axle said he doesn’t trust the Family right now, and that I’m to stay put or he’ll make me look as unpretty as he is.” He shudders dramatically. “I’m too pretty not to be pretty. "

2 " Before I can even peel open my eyes, there are voices around me.“Axle might kill you if he finds you lying on the bed beside her,” Eve is saying from somewhere in the room.“Like I won’t hear him the second they all get back. I’ll have plenty of time to move,” Drake tells her, sounding really close to my side. “I want her to think we got married in Vegas and that now I’m the Blackbird king. Should be interesting. "
3 " What?” I ask, wondering why he’s keeping his body on the bed instead of coming down on top of me while he holds my shoulders. “You need an engraved invitation or something? ‘Maya’s hungry, talented vagina cordially invites your big penis to come stay the night.’ How’s that work for you?” I "
4 " Fate is just a made-up word used to give us hope or absolution. We find hope when we believe bad things happen to us for a reason. We find absolution when we feel as though the wrongs of our past were just fate's twisted design to bring us to our present, and all of it was out of our hands. Of "
5 " Your scares don't bother me, because they mean you went through hell and came out on the other side alive. Your scars tell a story. Your scars make you sexy because it means you could handle me without getting yourself killed in the process. I love your scars, because they mean you're strong enough to withstand the worst in life. And my life is toxic. Dangerous. Constantly a snake pit. Even if you're only in it temporarily. "

7 " I may not have the outward marks to prove it, but I'm scarred all over too, Axle. Mine are just hidden from sight, because life was hard for me in a different way. People tend to constantly die around me. I lost my family in less than a blink, and I was betrayed by my own brother. So yeah, your loyalty is sexy. Your scars are sexy. You are what turns me on, because I feel like you can survive «i» me «/i». "

9 " Just when I think she can't possibly stun me silent again, she proves me wrong. It's like she's a bag of zigs and zags, and I prepare for a zag, only to get hit with a zig, which has me reworking my words and looking like a complete fucking moron much too often. "

11 " - Pity is for strangers you care nothing about but can't help but feel sorry for them. It's the side effect of being human. (...) What you see right now is a range of emotions on my face. This is me being angry for you. Me hurting for you. Me wanting to go back in time and hurt her while saving you. This isn't pity, Axle. This is me caring about you. It's a side effect of loving you. "
12 " (...) The right person makes you stronger. The wrong person forever drags you down, making you weaker. "
13 " I do hardcore Kegel exercises. My pussy is a ninja,” she says seriously, waiting for me to respond. I…hell, "
14 " Figures life finally pays me a debt to make up for the hell it has put me through, only to take it away the second I realize how much I want it. Guys like us don't get the sunshine and motherfucking rainbows. We get the exhaust fumes and oil spills. "
15 " - It's a side effect of loving a girl who likes tiny condiment bottles as collectibles and skates when she's waiting on a death tally. "
16 " She’s feisty. I like that. Most girls just wither and shiver in your presence. Not sure why your cock is on a mission to avoid the pretty kitty. "
17 " I’m trying to figure out if you’re crazy or romantic,” I murmur absently.“Both,” he deadpans without hesitation. “It’s a side effect of loving a girl who likes tiny condiment bottles as collectibles and skates when she’s waiting on a death tally. "
