Laura Pavlov, Wild River
“Why was I so drawn to a woman who insulted me every time I saw her?”
Laura Pavlov, Wild River
“This man owned me.
He owned my body, and he owned my heart.
Two things I’d never planned to give away.”

“I knew I’d done the right thing. I knew who River was, and I had faith that he would figure it out.
That we would figure it out.

“No catching feelings,” I said. “That’s where things get messy.”
He chuckled. “You don’t have to worry about that with me. I give you my word. I will not catch feelings. You aggravate me, and you turn me on. You annoy me, and you make me laugh. That’s all this is.”

“Agreed. So, we have nothing to worry about.”
Laura Pavlov, Wild River

I placed a hand on her cheek, waiting for her gaze to meet mine. “I’ve seen you every day over the last couple of weeks. We text when we aren’t together. I’ve woken up with you every day this week. I know you aren’t staying. I know this isn’t going anywhere. But stop fucking saying that it’s nothing. It’s more than I’ve ever had with anyone else, and it’s starting to piss me the fuck off that you keep saying that.”
Laura Pavlov, Wild River
“River can be a difficult bastard when he wants to be, but that man is the best guy I know. And he’s worth the risk. And he deserves to be happy, just like you do.”
Laura Pavlov, Wild River
“That’s not good enough. None of this is good enough. And I’m tired of settling. Figure your shit out, and after you do, then come and find me.”
Laura Pavlov, Wild River
