God of Wrath (Legacy of Gods, #3)

by Rina Kent

Curiosity is the work of the devil and his minion demons in order to make us irrational.

“You want to kiss a monster?” “I never said I was normal.”

“You look so innocent, but that head of yours is a fucked-up place, Lisichka. My fucked-up place.”

“I’m not a nice man, Cecily. I won’t pretend otherwise, or I’d be doing you and myself a disservice. What I am, however, is someone who’ll slaughter your demons one by one until you’re finally free of them. I’ll touch your scars until you normalize them and can live with them, because they’re part of what makes you who you are.”
