“Never. It's not an option for me. Do you know what a rook does in chess?" She shook her head and I wrapped my arms around her. "He protects the queen. He can't take her down, he can't win against her. He only protects her. If you want to be queen of it all, I will cut down anyone in your way. I won't stop you or lock you up and yes, I would happily kill anyone who bothers you.”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel

“Oh. It’s like getting on a horse,” I said, trying to sit back on the small seat. His head dropped forward, and I could feel him shaking now. “Are you laughing at me?” I asked. “I’ve just never had a girl say that as she got on top of me before.”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel

“If looking at this art makes you feel an ounce of what I feel when I look at you, then we can both understand why I wouldn’t be bored. I could never be bored with you, Regan. I don’t have to like anything else in the room. If you are there, I have my own personal form of art to look at.”

“I can and I did.” “But why?” Her eyes were wide and her chest heaved. She looked so mad, but she didn’t seem to know what to do with all the anger. I grabbed her waist, setting her up on the table and standing in front of her. “I went in looking for something. Imagine my surprise when I found this instead. A little smaller than me, but it really helps the ego.” “You are insane.” “Because of this?” I asked, running it up her thigh now and taking the dress with it. “On the list of insane things I do, this seems like it would barely make the cut.” “Rook,” she warned, but stayed planted in place. “Give it back.” “Damn, trying to get off before the date? I really don’t blame you. I’m sure these guys, along with Elliot, are a little more selfish than a girl would hope for.” “And you wouldn’t be?” she asked, the smirk on her face having an edge to it. “You think the girls you sleep with aren’t running home to finish the job with this? Please tell me your ego isn’t that big.” I moved it between her legs until her thighs fell open. “Again, you set these up so perfectly. My ego is big, but I have something else that’s bigger.” I thought she would be angrier, but she only smiled, smacking my arm and then snatching it out of my hand. “I don’t care how big it is. If you don’t know what you’re doing, I have no use for it.” “Hey, give it back,” I said, nearly laughing. “Finders keepers and all that.” I reached for it again, but she shoved it hard into her bag. “I wasn’t done with it.”

“My skin prickled at the feel of his hand sliding up my bare thigh, leaving a trail of goosebumps in its wake. I should have hated the fast pace, but all I could think about was how badly he wanted to taste me. It felt as if he couldn’t wait any longer, and I liked each confident touch. His fingers found their way to my entrance, making me gasp as he pushed two fingers inside. I met his intense gaze. He had angled us at the corner of the bed, giving me a full view of what him in the tall mirror sitting in the corner of my room. I couldn’t look away. The view of his head buried between my legs was better at this angle. I could see the muscles in his back flex as his arms tightened on my thighs, the tattoos moving with him. “Keep watching. Watch how much you love to get off on the tongue of a monster.” “Stop,” I breathed. “Stop calling yourself that.” “Why? You just did.” “I take it back.” “You will regret it. Don’t scream, Rebel. If your dad walks in here, I will have the perfect excuse to kill him.” “He’s not actually here,” I said. “I lied, so you can’t kill him even if you wanted to.”

“Her cheeks flamed, and my heart flipped that this was only the start of it happening. “I don’t need anyone…doing that.” “No? What about the guy out there who can’t keep his hands off you? I think he’s starving.” “He wants to take me out on a date. Is there a problem?” “Not at all. Interesting, you’re fine with him all over you, because what do you have this for then?” I asked, pulling out the fun little toy I had found in her nightstand when I searched her bedroom earlier. “Was this something you needed because of Elliot, or something you keep for all your really good dates?”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel

“No one will ever hurt you if I am with you.” He bit at my ear before kissing down my neck. “I will kill them. It doesn’t even take a second to think it over. That’s why people die when you’re with me,” he said with a grin, “because I won’t be giving them any chance to hurt you.”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel

“Isn’t it funny how we always build up interactions in our mind? We think they are good, maybe great even. Until you have the really amazing thing, though, it’s hard to make an accurate comparison. Then, once you have the amazing thing, it would be impossible to go back and think that first thing was even okay, let alone great.”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel

“Every part of me was on fire. I couldn’t believe I found him. I’d been looking, but came up with nothing and had been mad at myself for not learning more than his first name. It should have been a part of our deal when he chased me for mine. I wanted to know why he ran off when he learned my name, and why he would want to suddenly stalk me after. Now he chased after me again, and I could only wonder if he would keep catching me. “Stop following me,” I said. He reached out again, but this time he caught the back of my neck. His fingers dug in, ripping me back and tipping my head until his mouth crashed onto mine, rough and urgent. I felt a small sting as he bit at my lower lip, forcing me to open more. My lips parted for him, letting his tongue explore every inch of mine.”
