Alexandra Bracken
Maybe we had just gotten too used to being alone-- and maybe that needed to change.
Alexandra Bracken
I bet it gets pretty lonely with only your ego for company.

Clancy had taught me well.
Alexandra Bracken
He held me against him gently, as if I was glass - as if I could shatter and fall away from him at any moment and leave him breathless and alone once more.
Alexandra Bracken
I used to dream about turning back time, about reclaiming the things I'd lost and the person I used to be.
Alexandra Bracken
You are actually the worst person I have ever met.
Alexandra Bracken
