Godslayers (Gearbreakers #2)

by Zoe Hana Mikuta

We have been so cruel to each other, and then the world was so cruel to us, too, that we forgot to keep up with it, and in the beat of that hesitation we fell in love. I turned around and realized I was looking for her all the time. That did not change when I lost my mind, and that does not change now, with a boy dead on the pavement and an era easing to ash below our feet, and still so many deities everywhere. I know I would love Enyo less if I had not loved her first. Is that not how it goes? Is it not so much easier to love once we know how it feels?
