“I would die for her. I would kill for her. Either way, what bliss.”

“Every fairy tale had a bloody lining. Every one had teeth and claws.”

“You’re not a girl,” I say, my tone bordering on lethal. “You’re an irritating inconvenience that is begging to have her ass reddened.”
Her pupils dilate. “And don’t you just hate how much that excites you.”

The pain webs my body like a fine mesh to coat the numbness.
But I still see her—feel her.
Want her.

Most killers don’t change their MO—but it’s not unheard of.
I never thought I’d change mine, a ruthless creature of habit.

I have killed for my mother. I’ve killed for survival, out of compulsion, to sate cravings, and even, at times, fun.
But the decisive difference is that I wouldn’t just kill for Kyrie—I would give my life. Hell, I’d even let her take it.

When I break away, I hold her gaze and whisper, “I’m keeping these.” I hold up her torn panties before I sink them back into my pocket.
“How very stalker of you,” she snarks.
