Devious Gods (Age of Vampires Book #7)

by Caroline Peckham

This book is dedicated to love in all its forms. From sisters and brothers, to friends and lovers. May your heart be full and shared with the best people of all, because we’re all just hurtling through space on a flying rock together. Might as well love each other hard while we’re here.

“So think of it like this.” Callie drew close enough to touch me and she placed a burning hot hand upon my chest above my still heart. “At the second you died, you loved me and when the curse is broken, you’ll love me still. This is just the fleeting moment between heartbeats, the gap between breaths. And while we’re in it, our love burns as brightly as it will once it passes.”

“I am not your pawn, I am not a slave to your curse and my name is not Erik Larsen. I am Erik Belvedere, Andvari. And I am your death.”

“I thought I was waiting for that, rebel, but I wasn’t. I was waiting for you. I was waiting for a love so fierce it thwarted even death. There’s no boundary, no realm on Earth or otherwise that I wouldn’t cross to find you. And if there’s a life after this, I’ll find you there, and again and again.”

Live well twins of Sun and Moon. Your sacrifices won’t have been for naught.
