Kindle Notes & Highlights
Let all that you do, be done with love (Corinthians 16:14).
“Your scent. Your touch. Your voice. It calls to me like a siren, luring me toward the mysterious abyss. And still, I’ve an insatiable appetite for it. When I think of someone hurting you, or touching you, those thoughts my mother feared claw inside of me.”
“Nightshade is where you go when you don’t believe in anything. The poor souls who end up here are so easily plucked like flowers.” He held up one of the nightshade flowers that I distinctly remembered picking before I dove off the cliff. “They are eternally trapped. Encapsulated in their own denial.”
“Promise me you will return. That you will find me in the woods.” “I will find you, Lustina. No matter what happens.”
“There is only one way to break the curse. It’s why I called you into my office.” My mind puzzled the information I’d been fed so far about Lustina. Her mother. I frowned back at him. “I have to become pregnant?” “Yes. Only an angel can break the curse.”
“A villain is quite capable of love. It’s only the matter of what he’s willing to sacrifice for that love which separates him from a good man.”
“I’m far more selfish. I would burn down an entire city for one woman.”
“Do not ever leave me again. I will not survive the loss of you twice.” “I promise,” I whispered.
“You are my eternity,” he whispered.
“Gods, you are a vision of perfection.” Cheeks warm, I smiled. “I think you need to redefine the meaning of perfection.” “No, little tu’nazhja. It’s you who needs to redefine its meaning.”
“There’s a violence inside of me, Farryn. A toxic poison that needs release. You are the blade to my vein. The calm to a storm that never stops raging. You always were.”
“Even if I never restore my wings, and I’m never fully whole again, when they come for us, I will fight for you. I will fight until my last breath, and I will give up the world for you again and again. Only for you,”
“My love for you will never fade. Not even when this wretched world ceases to exist and the sun dies out to an everlasting darkness. My life, my soul. It is yours eternally.”
