I stepped backwards, letting Tobias be what he was born to be. Savage. Dangerous…wrath in its most primal form.

“
You know my depths now, little sister. You know my depravity. I can’t let you go, not now…not ever.

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
She wasn’t part of you, and you weren’t part of her. You are part of us. We are your family.

A.K. Rose (Claimed (Blood Ties, #6))
“
That the girl, that’s the good fucking girl,” I murmured, watching my finger slide all the way inside. “Look at the way you take it.” I rose over her, sliding my hand around her throat once more.

I shoved him aside and bent. The gun was in my hand in an instant. “You touched what belonged to me.” I lifted the muzzle. “You caused her pain.” My finger wrapped around the trigger. “There is no universe where I'd allow that to happen again. She is mine. She is ours. And we are…hers.

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
You’re the one I see in my head. You’re the one I own. I can’t stop myself, can’t control this goddamn need. I’m going to keep a leash on it, going to be as gentle as I fucking can—if you’ll let me.

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
Take it…” I whispered, and forced my eyes open. “Take everything…just not her.

“
And I’d do it again, in a heartbeat.” He sank to the bed and laid flat on his back. “Now, you gonna make me fucking wait, princess…or you gonna let me give you what you crave?

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
She had all the power here, even with her small body trapped under me and my hand around her throat. She was the one in control, the one who had those slender fingers wrapped around my heart.

I would kill the fucking world for you,

I’m torn between wanting to protect you from me… and making you choke on my goddamn cock.

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
This isn’t just a mission to save you, Ryth. It’s a mission to make sure no one touches you again. You belong to us. You’ve always belonged to us…from the goddamn moment you stepped a foot inside our door. Whether we wanted it or not.

“
Our fates had crashed into each other that night in a shock wave that changed us all. Cataclysmic. Destructive down to the core. They'd shattered me and rebuilt me all at the same time.

You can’t take her…she was never yours to take.” My finger curled around the trigger. “Because she’s mine.

A.K. Rose (Hers (Blood Ties, #2))
“
I shifted my focus to her closed eyes. She'd been made for me. Even if she didn’t know it…she would. I’d never felt this way about someone, had never wanted to feel it.

A.K. Rose (Mine (Blood Ties, #1))
“
Hate I understood. But seeing her like this, so damn small and meek, taking tiny bites of her pizza like she was a goddamn mouse, incited something dangerous inside me. Squeak, squeak, little thing.

A.K. Rose (Mine (Blood Ties, #1))
“
She’s been sent to the Order,” Elle said, stepping closer, her gaze fixed on me. “We saw the recording, we know what you’ve been doing.

“
Do I need a reason to want to hear my girl sing?”
Ok, Julie decided she might as well get used to the blush on her cheeks being a permanent companion for the day.
“Your girl?” She repeated, intending to sound mocking but managing only to sound a little awed.
Somehow his eyes managed to soften even more than usual when he looked at her. Luckily he kept his tone joking even if his words were clearly sincere. She wasn’t sure if she could have handled it if he approached the subject seriously.
“What? Am I wrong?” He asked, bouncing on his heels a little.
They had already exchanged “I love you’s” so why was his labeling of her as his girl managing to shake her so much?
If she was truly honest with herself, she knew.
Ever since she had tumbled into the past she had been adrift, feeling caught between two worlds and like she didn’t fully belong in either of them. Even before that she had lost her sense of self. She knew there was more to her, but being Rose Molina’s daughter had always been the anchoring fact in Julie’s life, the thing that made her feel safe, and grounded and special .
Until she wasn’t anymore.
Of course she was still her mother’s daughter but it had gone from being a source of belonging to a source of pain.
So to hear Luke label her “his girl” didn’t stir up any of the independent thoughts bristling at the phrase that she might have expected.
It just made her feel safe, and grounded and special
Like even if it was just for this one, precarious moment she found herself in, she knew who she was and where she belonged.
Julie Molina. Rose Molina’s daughter.
Luke’s girl.
“You’re not wrong,” She blurted, quickly turning to the keyboard in order to avoid looking at him.

“
She wouldn’t forget.
She was Julie Molina.
She was Rose Molina’s daughter.
And she wouldn’t be afraid.
She would go down this hole and find her boys and save them because that’s what she had to do.

“
She was Julie Molina.
She had been Rose Molina’s daughter.
She had been Luke’s girl.
But she was so much more than that.
And she could be brave.
She reached down to touch the plastic ring she wore, rubbing the fake purple stone for good luck as her mom’s jacket sparkled in the spotlight that covered her.
She was ready.
