“One for the past – what we were apart.” Moving to the middle cord, he gently smoothed it and attached a silver ring. “One for the present – what we are now.” His touch lingered on the topmost cord, and I saw the hesitation in his gaze. I wrapped my hands around his wrists and squeezed to reassure him. “One for the future – what we will become.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

“Don’t allow undeserved guilt to take the power you reclaimed. It has never and will never be your fault. Permit yourself to have the future you deserve,” Carter told me firmly. “Broken does not mean worthless.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“We all have different experiences, personal histories and gathered knowledge, which forms how we think. Life changes people in ways that derive a certain individuality in their desires. We can only categorise it and evolve our understanding of each other as humans while we learn.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Don’t do that!” he told me firmly. “Don’t apologise for things you haven’t done. At least do something worthy of apology first.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Seeing a real victim-survivor behave in such a way is a rarity.
Most of us can't face the attention or the judgement, the shame is often so big it swallows our innocence, and we don't have a tangible vision of justice any more, let alone the will to trust others with a vulnerability so crippling it distorts our worldview. I don't know if Brie ever was a victim, and it's not my place to assume, but I knew for certain that this was a pack of lies, painfully damaging to those of us who had experienced it for real. With this display, she affected the beliefs of others, harming the fight to be heard.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

“My beautiful little bird, you will come to learn that the value of a false apology is zero, worse than an insult even. Some will use these traits to hold power over you and you are the only one who should have that power. I will nurture it until you’re ready to own it fully.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“You’re the worst kind of bitch, Brie. You make it harder for those who have genuinely been wronged to get help. Scum like you is the reason why people are scared to speak up. For your sake, I truly hope your game of cry-wolf doesn’t come back to bite you one day.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

“Darling, you’re something more. I don’t know what happened, but I like spending time with you. I enjoy silence and stillness at your side. Beside you, I don’t feel the need to be constantly moving or mentally occupied. You are enough, and you’re also so much more.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Freedom. No one can ever really be free, especially from the horrors within them. Living my whole life in fear helped me understand that. It showed me that freedom is subjective. It taught me to compartmentalise and seek out the unrestricted parts of my mind, so when I lived in those moments of excessive fear, I had something minuscule to cling to, a tiny fraction of light to keep the darkness away.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

“Really? You’re actually trying to lie to me now? Me…your mother who programmed you from conception. You think I don’t know my own magnificent creation?”

“You are culpable in this too, Tracy. You raised your daughter without morals or an understanding of accountability. You failed her with your spoiling and blaming, and especially the lack of hard truths. She needs to face the consequences of her actions, or she won’t learn.” Mom seemed to be venting the last decade of frustration in one hit. “Raising a child needs care. It can’t all be wonderful moments; discipline and guidance are a priority right next to love and care. Brie appears to have completely missed the lessons in life regarding other people; I’d hate to imagine her understanding of her own safety. Everyone has the right to be safe in their own skin without the threat of force being used against them. God knows we’ve been trying to teach our daughters these things, but where in this did any of us include the rights of men as part of that? Gender aside, violating another person is a crime in need of punishment, and you should be working to see her take responsibility for what she’s done.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

“You’re pretty dramatic for a Sunday.” I grinned. “I’d be bored out of my fucking mind if not for the drama here, my little Voodoo doll.” “Drama I can live without. Gossip, I could be persuaded.” “FUCK IT! GARRICK, YOU GREEDY BASTARD, I’M KEEPING HERRRR!”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Dude, you got me cartoon underwear?!” I knew she would like them, they matched her socks. She pulled the pastel fabric from the bag, their kitty faces smiling back at me along with her bemused smirk.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Wait a goddam minute. I haven’t put any of my delicates in your dryer.” “Maybe the cat nicked them.” I shrugged. “You don’t have a damn cat!” she poked me, and I snapped my teeth at her. “Maybe it’s a big ‘ole British butthead that’s running off with my panties!” Busted.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Safeword - facilitating instant distinctions when time is short, and risks are high.
You put everything you are into that collection of letters. You give your vulnerability and control; you pledge your life to that one sound. Capable of wielding such power over you, there is a heaviness that comes with selecting something,g which you consider a vital connection to your existence.
of course, that wasn't true for all, but for us, it was special.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Sacrifice

― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“To know I had been in control, that I might've been scared, I still knew in my right mind that I could be free with one word or action - and I didn't use it. I didn't safeword because deep down, I was safe in his care. I enjoyed things we did. But, being honest, in the clarity of the aftermath, I wanted more.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“I just want to know if the broken is always broken…or if there’s hope of mending enough to salvage a life that’s socially accepted.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Charlie.
He'd often insisted that angels were the worst sinners because they stood by watching the helpless, suffering masses and did nothing. He had long been a firm believer that if you had the ability to change things, help others and make a difference, then you should do it without question.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Silence

“Ahh, the little bird sings the same tune.” I tapped her chin so she would lift her gaze. “Unless you have a special interest in my footwear, I suggest you look at me when you speak.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Symphony: A Dark BDSM Romance

“Pitiful and vain as it may seem, I wanted to exist in the world - just for a while.
I was scared. Scared of being nothing but a person who passed through someone's life, scared of being forgotten, and terrified that my existence would have never meant a thing to anyone.”
― Adam A. Fox, A Sinful Silence
