“Love doesn't die. No matter how many bullets you put in it. It breathes on it's own without oxygen, without need for anything else. It exists, swirling in it's own form of gravity, ready whenever you are to be consumed by it.”

“I can’t answer that question for everybody. I can answer it for me…about you,” he says, pausing. “I knew I was in love with you when I wanted you more than I wanted anything else. I don’t need you to live my life. I want you in my life to make it worth living.” He clears his throat, nodding. “It started off as a challenge. I won’t lie, Win. I wanted you because I couldn’t have you. You were like this jagged mountainside that I had to climb to get what I wanted. I never anticipated wanting to open up to you and what that would lead to. The day you trusted me enough to jump out of an airplane, I took a leap too. I decided to go all in. I’m all in, Windsor. There’s no going back from this, or pretending I don’t want to spend the rest of my life with you. I know I love you because you’re good. Your honesty is the most beautiful thing about you. You make me a better person without even trying. It’s uncomplicated because it’s innate for you. I’m just waiting for you to realize how amazing you really are and leave my sorry, fucked-up ass. I know I love you because of this,” he says putting his fisted hand over his heart—over my tattoo. “It would stop beating if you weren’t mine. I’m yours, Windsor.”

“This is new to me, Win. I’ve never left a girlfriend behind before. I just wanted you to know that I don’t want to lose you because of my job. I don’t want to lose you for any reason. I want you to be here, in my house, in my life when I return. That said, I’ll understand if you can’t. It’s a lot to ask of anyone. You should know though, I’ll never not want you. You’re my always. And I do think I want you in this exact spot when I get back…maybe in the bedroom instead. We can negotiate if you’re amenable.”

“Missing someone meant that you are fortunate to love someone in the first place. If you don't miss them you don't love them”

“It’s better this way anyways. I probably need to find someone to settle down with. It’s about that time. Have the two point five kids, fake orgasms, and wallow in a stagnant career.”

“Life is about taking what you want and giving even more. Not because you think you should, because you want to. Love isn't easy because life isn't easy. You have to fight for the things you want. Sometimes you win and sometimes you wish you lost instead”

“I wish I was perfect as you think I am. I wish I were good. I'm not. I want to be good enough. For you,”

“Becky, Freya, and Chloe weren’t for me, Marney,” Maverick says tactfully. Actually, now my heart is pounding. He lays a hand on my shoulder. “Windsor isn’t like them. She’s not like anyone, because she is the one. My one. Why did I pick her? I’m lucky she picked me, honestly. She’s real. I owe her more than rattling off the never-ending list of why she’s the one for me, so I’m shutting my fucking mouth. All you need to know is I’m hers. Make her feel welcome.”

“I want you,” he says. “You said you didn’t know what I wanted from you. I’m telling you. I want you. I want you to be mine. That’s all I know for sure.”

“Whatever you want, Steven. Whatever you want. I want you. I want you to have all of me,” I say. One of his huge arms wraps around the front of my slight body and his fingers slip into my wetness, stroking me firmly. I press back against him to feel his erection against my backside. It’s hard and huge and throbbing in protest. The unladylike words that I want to say shock even myself. His fingers work me skillfully, unmercifully. A moan slips as the sounds of my wetness fill the air.”

“I’m no good. I’m telling you I’m crazy. Nothing in my life will ever be what you deserve. I internalize everything, and don’t tell anyone how I feel. I’m reckless where others are careful. I’m also completely at a loss. I have no idea how to keep what I want most,” he says. He didn’t use the word “fuck” once. He’s honestly telling me how he feels. “You.”

“I never understood why something as wet and with so much sucking and licking is called a blowjob. Men don’t pause long enough to give a shit, is the only conclusion I’ve developed over the years.”

“What did I do, Win? You just left. You were supposed to come to my house. If it was too much, too soon, you should have told me. I’d never pressure you to do anything you didn’t want to do. That’s it, right? That has to be it.”

“I want all of you, Windsor…now and forever. I can’t control your past, but if I could, you would have always been mine to love.”

“Never say goodbye" he demands. His smile fades. "I'm making my own Rules, Never say goodbye, that's rule number one”

“I’ll always wonder what could have been with Steven Warner, but he never showed any interest outside of friendship so I never pushed it.”

“And that’s supposed to make me feel better? What if he took her home? If he fucked her, I’ll kill him, Stone. So help me God I will annihilate everything he’s ever touched. She’s mine now. She’s fucking mine,”
