Iâd make you work for it. Even if I wanted you like I was a woman dying of thirst and you were fresh water, you would have to hunt me. Make it clear i wasnât something to have and throw away once you won it.
You might find me alone but I wouldnât let you catch me until I was ready.
[eventually. he has no doubt that she would have kept him invested in the chase, and the longer she did that, the more intense his desire for her would grow.]
i would run you down and make you admit you wanted me as much as i wanted you
Well, I was eighteen. But if I wasnât a tiger, I would have never met Asher. If I was still with my mother my stepfather would have treated me like a commodity.
If I had you, I would have scratched out the eyes of any girl who looked at you too long. If I had you, in a world where it was you, and me, against the world? I would have done everything to keep you. I would have schemed and plotted and destroyed for you.
Especially since, knowing the asshole of my stepfather, he would kick me out the second I wasn't a good girl.
[It would have kept Teach on the island, she thinks, it would have changed everything. It would have made them powerful, the two of them together.]
The two of us? Yes.
The British wouldn't stand a chance, if we knew each other that young. Eleanor wouldn't stand a chance. If you and I could have guided and protected each other.

no subject

no subject
Iâm smart enough to make you crazy for me. So you would want to keep me.

[he knows it, but it's becoming more real as they talk about it. she would have gotten to him earlier than eleanor. which begs the question:]
would you have kept me

we would have run that whole fucking island together and held it
[he can say that because none of this is real. it doesn't matter if that's not true.]

eleanor could have used someone like you herself
[a female role model, perhaps - someone to tell her to get her shit together that she might have actually listened to.]
no subject
Would you have liked it? Meeting me like that?
no subject
i think you know damn well i would have been obsessed with you too
but i don't think another lifetime would change that
no subject
No.
I think you're half my soul, I don't think it matters what kind of life we found each other in.
no subject
