Goldfinch (The Plated Prisoner, #6)

by Raven Kennedy

Auren is life. I am death. That is why the goddesses paired us together. She is the gleaming power of light, and she needed her antithesis to stand at her side. Because she’s the golden sun of warmth and growth, while I am decay and darkness, with a magic that comes from the deepest core of the earth. There is no growth without rot. There is no sun without the dark sky. And there is no me without her.

“Oh, Goldfinch. My love for you consumes every part of my soul. It’s in every word, every movement. With each morning that dawns and every night that falls. You are completely mine, and I am yours, and that is all I ever need in this life and all the others.” I kiss her forehead, tears burning in my eyes. “I love you, Auren.”
