I don’t deserve you, Bea. None of us do, yet somehow you chose to remain with us and face our fucked-up nature. ‘And for that, I thank you. ‘I never thought you could do more for me than you already had by now.

“You’re not the monster that you describe yourself to be.’ I couldn’t watch him suffer. ‘I didn’t say I am a monster. But a monster does lie inside me, and I’m not talking about the Cookie Monster this time. I can be both a glacier and an active volcano at the same time, Prince Charming and The Big Bad Wolf in a blink of an eye. I’m not like Brax, always determined to be made of stone, or Cole who needs obedience and adrenaline for his world to keep functioning. I can’t provide stability, except for the material one. Because, when it comes to my emotions, I don’t even know what’s going to happen next. I have no idea if I’ll wake up wanting to rule the world or burn it to the ground. But I do know one thing. I don’t want to lose you. I meant what I said. I want you here with me, in both my darkest and my brightest hours.’ He took a short pause, giving me a little space to hear the difficult part, ‘But I also know that I’ll only manage to hurt you along the way.’ ‘What if I consider it’s worth it?”

“Cole had the legal background and connections, Brax had the underworld links to sneak them out between the guards, and Ferris had the money that made the world go round. But even if I were to negotiate with Ferris; he still wouldn’t have been able to get me the unlimited support with the authorities, or the streetwise Brax had. Separately, they couldn’t help me, yet put together, they were exactly what I needed. If I was going to do this, I needed to assure myself of success. I didn’t need one of the deals. I needed all three of them! But would that mean three separate deals with three devils!?”
― M.O. Absinthe, Kings of Desire

“Brax!?’ ‘Yes, baby.’ ‘You’re drunk.’ ‘Maybe I am, but nothing about this moment is any less real.’ He caught my bottom lip between his own, ‘I want you. I want you so fucking bad, I can’t even control myself.”
― M.O. Absinthe, Kings of Lust

“You really don’t get it, do you? I didn’t do that to embarrass you. Sure, that torment in your eyes turned me on, but I did it so that you would realize I don’t mind sharing when it comes to Cole or Ferris! It wasn’t a bluff. The punishment was just an excuse. I did it so that you’d understand that you like it, even if you won’t admit it.”
