The Sacrifice Quotes

“Hang on a second." I looked back at the car. Reuel was sitting like a statue in his seat, probably hoping to be forgotten. "You coming?" He shook his head furiously. I narrowed my eyes. "You're sworn to protect me, remember? What kind of guardian angel waits in the car?" His chest heaved with heavy reluctance, and he pushed the door open. Under his breath, he swore in Katavukai. I put my free hand on my hip. "I heard that." The hulking angel stuck his tongue out at me.”

“If any bit of ice remained in my heart for Azrael, it melted in that instant. All distrust and unforgiveness vanished with that small peek under the sheet of his true intentions. "You're a good man," I whispered, instantly full of love, gratitude, and infinite sorrow. He'd sacrificed everything—eternity even—for the woman he loved, and yet his grace and selflessness seemed to know no end. "I'm not a man at all," he said quietly with the slightest of smiles. Then he stepped forward, and in the secret stillness of that crypt, he hugged me.”
