Kindle Notes & Highlights
He would marry Persephone no matter the consequences, because in the end, a life without her was not a life at all.
It went beyond being friends. They were soul mates,
“Oh, darling, but I have told you before—for you, I would destroy this world.”
She was like a fucking star in the sky, burning away the darkness, setting fire to every horror he had ever known.
“I will give you the world,” he whispered, his mouth hovering over hers. “I don’t need the world,” she said. “I just need you.”
Resentment is just as fatal a wound.”
What mattered was that she was warm and well and whole, that her heart could beat in tandem with his, that she could go between their worlds, because that was what made her happiest.
“I will worship you until the end of the world. There is nothing I wouldn’t sacrifice for you. Do you understand that?”
“You were my only love—my heart and my soul. My world began and ended with you, my sun, stars, and sky. I will never forget you but I will forgive you.”
