cigarette ends:
the notion that a burn can be healed, that a flame can be smothered, that everything begins and ends with a spark.
the notion that anything brilliant can be dead in a flash.

blurb
"I'll fuck you until you're screaming for forgiveness," I whispered, "until your apologies are like melodies in my ears and 'you won' are the only words your lips know how to form."
His smile brought the temperature in the room down a couple of degrees.
"But what happens if I win?" His lips hovered by my ear and his voice were like knives against my skin. "What if I win, Emilia, and your wrists bleed from the ropes tying you to the bed and your screams are muffled by the gag in your mouth as I eat the pride out of you until you lose consciousness?"
