Dark Mafia Romance Quotes

“Brothers in blood, in life, and in death.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“I smile at how sweet she is. She’s very wrong, though. I’m not a good man. I’m a bad man who just happens to have a few morals. I hope she always thinks I’m worthy of her love, but the truth is I’m not.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“I’m not sure what I’m expecting, maybe a hint of remorse. I mean, there should be some, right? But there isn’t anything in his eyes except relief at having me in his arms and a satisfaction at knowing he’s killed the people responsible for hurting me. I should probably be more worried about the lack of a conscience, but I’m not.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“I look at his brothers, seeing them as they truly are. The man I love is in a Bratva with these men. They’re killers, the blood covering their hands and chests is proof of that, but I’m not scared of them.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“I never thought I’d get married, never even had the slightest desire to do so, but the thought of letting Emily go, of not having her in my life is not something I can live with. I want her. I want the family, the babies, the ridiculous Christmas cards where we’re all dressed the same. I fucking want it all with this woman.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“God, I love her. I love her in a way that a sane person would say is unhealthy. I love her in a way that’s almost painful. I walk around knowing that I wouldn’t survive if something happened to her. It’s a scary kind of love, but it’s the only way I know how to love her. She consumes me. There’s no half-assing that. It’s all or nothing, and she has it all, every single part of me.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Blood

“She’s so goddamn beautiful that it freezes my brain. I can’t think, can’t form words in Russian or English. There’s nothing there except this overwhelming feeling that I have for her. I’m not a man who’s ever been in love. Fuck, I’m not a man who’s ever even had the faintest desire to be in love, but here I am, smitten after two goddamn days.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Venom

“Sweetheart, before I met you if anyone had mentioned the word baby, I would’ve broken out in a cold sweat. It would’ve been a nightmare, the last thing I would’ve wanted or needed, but with you, it’s all I can fucking think about.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Venom

“Ever since the first second I saw you, I knew you were mine. I can’t explain it, I’ll never be able to, but I knew that you were the woman I was meant to spend my life with.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Venom

“I love you with a fierceness that scares the hell out of me. It’s all-consuming and it possesses every single part of me and I wouldn’t have it any other way. You make me happier than I’ve ever been. You’ve shown me what love is supposed to be like, and every day I wake up so goddamn grateful to have you next to me.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Venom

“I’m completely addicted to this man, and I know I need to be worrying about protecting my heart, but I can’t stop what I’m feeling, and I don’t want to. The time I get to spend with him is the happiest I can ever remember being, so even if it’s just for a few days, and even if that one kiss is the only one I’ll ever get, I still want to enjoy every single second of this. I’ll worry about my broken heart some other day. Tonight, I just want to be happy.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Rage

“I’ve never done the normal relationship thing. Hell, I’ve never even taken anyone out on a date. Despite my past, I’ve never done so many things, and I want to do them all with her. Having her on the back of my bike feels like the most natural thing in the world, and I realize how right Vitaly is. I’m not going to be able to let her go. Ever. His words should scare the hell out of me, and the fact that they not only didn’t scare me but left me smiling like an idiot instead says everything... Jesus Christ, I think I just officially and permanently took myself off the market.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Rage

“You’re mine because I love you, baby, and because last night when I thought I might lose you, it hurt worse than anything I’ve ever known. I won’t be away from you again, not fucking ever.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Rage

“You’ve changed everything, malinkaya. Every single thing I thought I knew and wanted—you changed it all. I never thought I would fall in love. I never wanted it and never understood it and didn’t want to, but then I met you.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Rage

“I can’t believe there was a time when you weren’t in my life. It’s hard to remember how it felt before I met you. I was living half a life, just going through the motions and not even realizing what all I was missing.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Rage

“I feel like I can’t breathe without her. Before you pulled me out of that damn fire, I knew I was going to die. I couldn’t breathe. My lungs just completely seized up and I couldn’t get a breath, no matter how fucking hard I tried. That’s exactly how I feel when I think about where she might be or what’s being done to her.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“I mean every word of what I’m saying. If I couldn’t have pulled him out of that apartment, then I would’ve died with him that night. Leaving him to die alone was never an option. Not then and not now. My life was never worth anything, and I would’ve gladly given it up for him.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“I’m not sure what to say to that, so I don’t say anything. The fact that there’s been so little love in her life that she finds the idea sweet that someone would actually mourn the death of someone else bothers me way more than it should.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“Loyalty is everything to me, and I gave you mine when we exchanged vows. I will never go back on that.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“Her voice is soft and shaky, and she looks so fucking vulnerable. She brings out all my protective instincts, the ones I thought for sure I’d never have for a woman, but I’d been wrong. I’d been so fucking wrong because I’d do anything to keep this woman safe, to keep my wife safe.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“The sensation of wanting to hold her, of wanting to be close to her and smell her vanilla scent and feel her heart racing against my chest is so fucking foreign but also so fucking perfect. It’s comforting, and I hadn’t been expecting that. I thought I would feel trapped or like I was suffocating, but instead I feel free for the first time in my life, like I’ve only been using half my lungs and I’m just now getting a full breath. I kiss a line across her cheek and drag my nose along the shell of her ear, breathing her in and knowing I’ll never be able to get enough.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“Fuck, ptichka, you’ve broken me, sweetheart. I’ve fucking shattered at your feet, and nothing will ever be the same for me again.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“My past is not my future, ptichka. I’m not the same man I was before I met you.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“I’m starting to understand my brothers a lot more. I had no idea monogamy could be so fucking sexy.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“As much as I love her body, it’s the hunger in her pretty blue eyes and the sweet smile playing at her lips that does me in.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“He’s not going to take pity on me or give me the mercy I’m begging for. He’s dead set on destroying me in the best way possible, and god help me, I want him to. I want him to obliterate every part of me. I want him to burn me to ashes, so he’s forced to breathe me in. I want to mark him and claim him just as much as he’s doing to me. I never want to be free of him. I always want us tangled up together and so closely connected that there will never be any separating us. I know what life is like without Vitaly, and I never want to experience it again.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“She’s the only person I’ve ever allowed myself to be vulnerable around, but it feels so natural to give in to her embrace and let her comfort me like only she can.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“The truth is I’d follow this man anywhere... My life led me to Vitaly, and I wouldn’t change a single thing about it, because having him is worth everything, and the rest of our lives will more than make up for the shit I’ve endured. I’d much rather have a rough beginning and a sweet ending. And ours? Ours is going to be fucking amazing.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“There isn’t a hierarchy in our marriage. We both fall before the other, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. My husband owns me, body and soul, but I own him just as fully.”
― Sonja Grey, Paved in Hate

“I’ll happily admit how wrong I was, but the truth is that I never wanted a wife and family because I hadn’t met her yet. No other woman ever tempted me like she does. I had no problem letting them walk away, but the thought of Katya leaving and never being able to see her again makes me feel like I can’t fucking breathe.”
― Sonja Grey
