Still Beating Quotes

“I might love you harder when you’re at your worst, but that’s only because you need it harder then. But my love for you when you’re at your best?” I release a breath, smiling. “It’s unmatched. It consumes me.”
― Jessie Walker, Still Beating

“It’s insane. Loving him this easily… Like every piece of me was made for every piece of him.”
― Jessie Walker, Still Beating

“Hunger like nothing I’ve ever felt before consumes me, and it’s a damn crime it took this long to get here. To this moment, where he is me and I am him, and I will destroy anything or anybody who tries to sever us.

― Jessie Walker, Still Beating

“It’s a searing kiss, the kind that stokes the
flames, building and building until I know we’ll eventually, inevitably, combust from the pressure. All I can do is hope that once it settles, enough embers will have reached
those dark, cold, deserted places where loneliness lives and fear thrives.”
― Jessie Walker, Still Beating
