21 " Those three words again. I’ve got you. "
― Keri Lake , Ricochet (Vigilantes, #1)
22 " I don’t want easy and uncomplicated. I want love that makes me fucking insane and irrational. I want to drown in it and never come back up for air. "
23 " So, I let go. "
24 " Cage a bird that once felt the wind through its feathers and the world beneath its feet, and you’d find that insane glint of hope in its eyes that enticed it to escape every time the door swung open. Even if it could no longer fly, it’d never stop vying for its freedom, and neither would I. "
25 " I wished I hadn’t thought about sex as often as I had, that I didn’t crave tangling my fist in the woman’s hair, having her ride me with reckless abandon. I wished women with curves and big tits like hers didn’t incite some primal urge inside of me. "
26 " That was the thing about pain, it came with a universal understanding for those who survived it—don’t ask, don’t tell. "
27 " Bacon is like sex. You can have it any time of the day. "
28 " Whatever happens at the end of this … I gave you all of me. My fears. My desires. It’s all yours. And now I want all of you. "
29 " I saw darkness in her beauty, and she saw beauty in my darkness. "
30 " Could you even imagine a place where we watch sunrises, have sex, eat, shower, have sex, lay in the sun, watch sunsets, sex.” “I’m picking up on a theme … "
31 " But fuck, that body of hers called out to me like a siren. I felt like a rotten bastard for what I wanted to do to it. How badly I needed to watch her writhe with the pleasure of being defiled by my cock, while her screams reverberated inside the small shower stall. "
32 " You never tried to make yourself known to her because … you were giving her to me. "
33 " I want to.” To be set free? Fucked? I’ve no idea what she’s begging me for. "
34 " She lowers herself to the bed and releases a pained sigh that is both relief and agony. I know this because I feel it, too, as I rock in and out of her tight pussy with the realization that I don’t want the torment to end. I want to stay inside of her, with her warm, silky body around my dick and her soft whisper droning inside my head, telling me how good it feels. "
35 " No thanks. I’m not an artist.” “You don’t have to be. That’s the beauty of creating art. It’s cathartic. Think of your past, your present, your future. Draw what troubles you. It can be a face, a place, a story inside of one single image. "
36 " Creation and healing are born of the same thread. Bringing something to life can sometimes heal the soul, while still honoring what a person has lost. "
37 " I’d found people got uncomfortable quicker by my staying quiet while holding a deadpan stare. "
38 " Nasty thing, a conscience, isn’t it? Keeps us aware of what’s right and wrong. "
39 " Always amusing, that moment when realization finally kicked in. Sometimes, I wished I could’ve recorded the shit to play over and over for laughs. "
40 " I wanted to heal the broken, beautiful man within him. "
