“I lied. It’s always decided beforehand. Every action we take only throws us back to the path we were always meant to follow."
❝Just because I was born a woman, doesn’t mean I’ll let anyone stomp all over me.❞
❝I knew you would be the death of me, Princess.❞
“Just because I was born a woman, doesn't mean I'll let anyone stomp all over me."
“Don’t ever, and I mean ever, repeat that. You’re my wife—know your fucking place.”
“And you’re my husband,” I mutter through clenched teeth. “Know your fucking place.”
“I’m your wife, and therefore, your equal, not a second-rate citizen you can do with as you please. Don’t dish out your double standards on me—you won’t like how I react.”
“She tastes like addiction and bad decisions, and yet I would still come back for a hit every day.”
“Come here, Rai.”
“Why?”

“We’re Sokolovs, Rai,” he told me once. “We don’t bend the knee. Everyone else does.”
I’m going to get under Kyle Hunter’s skin so deep, exploit his power, and then use it against him. When the hurricane hits him out of nowhere, he’ll understand why storms are named after women.”
“I hate you.”
“But you’ll love my games, Princess.”
