Deception (Twisted Trilogy #2)

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.

Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is patient …

I’ve loved her for ten years now, but she hasn’t so much as said hello to me.

Love is kind …

Okay, fine, it’s kind.

Love does not boast?

Love is most certainly boastful because I’ll feel nothing except pride when I have her—when I possess her—when she’s mine.

And Envy?

My love envies every single bastard who has had the pleasure to touch what will be mine. Especially Cooper. Cooper is Hannah’s present, but I will be her future. She will know my love. She will feel my love. She will embrace my love. She will bear and believe in my love. She will hope for my love because my love for her will never end.
