Phantom (Tattered Curtain, #1)

by Greer Rivers

Tu me verras bientôt, Ton démon de la musique “My muse… Your demon of music.”

you'll see me soon

“You are my demon of music.”

the eyes are a window to a man’s soul, then my demon of music has starlight in his dark depths.

To everyone else, he’s the Phantom of the French Quarter, but to me, he’s my demon of music.

“Never leave me, Scarlett. I couldn’t bear it.”

“If you stay, I promise to give you the best love story ever told, every day, for the rest of our lives. I was forced into the shadows, and I’ve made my home here. But I’ve only ever wanted to share a life with someone. Like my parents shared. The kind of love that consumes

you in life and leaves you a shell when the other goes too soon. I used to feel sorry for my mother, but some days she gets to escape to a world where the love of her life still exists. He’s not just a phantom, he is her everything. I want to be that for you, with you. I want one love that survives this lifetime.”

You were the moonlight to my midnight.”

“I loved you when you were only music sheets, roses, and letters. You’ve been here for me longer than I ever knew. I never want to let you go again. I want to be yours.”
