Kindle Notes & Highlights
“If you touch her again, I’ll crush every fucking bone in your hands, and I’ll kill you. Don't ever come close to her again, Mitchell. I know all about you.”
I need to protect her, though. We’re on a battlefield, and she needs to open her naive little eyes and go back home. I don't want her to see what I've seen. I want to shield her from it. Fuck, what the hell is going on with me?
Unfortunately, I know somewhere behind the rational parts of my head, it’s not just the promise that sucks me in. It's the sinister side of me that wants to indulge in my dark desires and take her.
“I’ve sent way too many souls to hell. I wouldn’t hesitate to send another if they even look at what's mine.”
“Time waits for no one. Death is a shadow stalking the living. It is a dreadful, inexorable promise, and life is a lovely lie.”
She’s finally mine, and I think she's right. I don’t think I’ll ever leave her alone again.
“Don’t worry, Ari. I’m coming back home to you, I promise you. This is a first for me…but I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
“I think it’s pretty obvious. You’re mine.”
“I’m already going to hell. I’ll do my best not to take you with me.” Then he’s crashing his soft lips to mine, moving my lips with his, engraving every second into my brain.
Death made his presence known, and he would collect souls tonight. But I would make damn sure I wouldn’t go down with them. I’ve got my little angel waiting for me at home.
“It’s really you.” I breathe into his shoulder low and soft, tears falling. “I’m home, baby, I’m home.”
She’s so fucking beautiful. But not just beautiful in appearance, it’s in her ambition. It’s her need to help people, the way she trusts people, and the way she wears her heart on her sleeve that makes her so beautiful to me.
“But even if you choose to leave, you will always be mine. Even if you decide to run, your soul is trapped within me, and I’m never giving it back.”
“You deserve to be worshipped every second of the day, little angel, and I’m going to do just that for the rest of my life.”
“You’re mine, and I am yours, forever.”
