“Heute habe ich nur noch zu wenigen meiner Cousins Kontakt. Von den anderen weiß ich kaum, wo sie wohnen. Wenn ich oder meine Eltern Verwandte treffen, dann nur, weil man sich aus Versehen bei den Großeltern über den Weg läuft, nie, weil man es will. Die Familie gibt es nicht mehr.”

“She is the torture I may not survive.
Eagerly, she is my undoing.
Her gaze lifts, meeting eyes that are not my own.
Eyes of the man who gets to have her-if she allows it.
She was supposed to be my forever.
Now I'll watch her become someone else's.
Because the beast doesn't get the beauty.”

“Maybe you really are a poet," I whisper.
He smiles softly. "Only a fool for you."
"Pretend?"
My voice is small, soft like the breeze blowing through my short hair.
"Never."
"None of it?" I ask quietly.
"Darling"-he smiles- "I have never had to pretend to want you.”

“Pretend,” I whisper against his lips. I am recklessness incarnate. Until the very end. My mouth meets his. He tastes like longing. Like regret and relief. Like nothing matters but this moment. It’s fervent, like a sinner’s final prayer. And maybe that is what this kiss is. Repentance.”
