Even When I'm Gone (Stay with Me, #2)

by Nicole Fiorina

Every way, we’d fit without flaw. Her body was my kingdom come. Her divine kiss was my salvation. Her soul was mine’s paradise. Mia was my evermore.

“Because love is constant. When you love someone, you can be angry with them, you can hate them, you can be upset or disappointed in them, but you never stop loving them because love endures all other emotions.”

Love and hate existed on the same thin line. Love was dangerous. Hate was nasty. But just like love, hate controlled me—consumed me.

“Consuming, timeless, unselfish, love. I’d loved you in my darkest hour when I wasn’t myself, and I’ll love you in every lifetime after this.”

“Sometimes all we need is someone who will sit in the dark with us.”
