Eldritch (The Eating Woods, #2)

by Keri Lake

“How can I convince you that the only thing that could possibly force me away from you is death? And even then, I’d find a way to get back to you.”

“I would call you the soft glow of moonlight in a pitch-black world. A prayer I never spoke aloud, but somehow the gods answered anyway. The strike of lightning I dare to behold without flinching.” His brow flickered as he ran his thumb over my bottom lip. “The reason I breathe.”

“The world has taken everything from me. My morals. My body. My fucking soul. You’re all I have, moon witch. The only thing that gives me worth, and if it takes my life to keep you safe then I will gladly surrender it. For you.”

“I can’t find peace without your touch.”

“Fate could change the path a thousand times over, but in the end, it’ll always be you and me.”
