61 " Strange that I knew it would end this way. Not in battle, but in a dirty alley, alone, hiding among the filth like the coward I was. My poetic ending. "
― Ashlan Thomas , To Love (The To Fall Trilogy #3)
62 " Raphael’s citrine eyes flashed in the night. Leaning down to me, his look wiped any smile from my face, full of promise. “I was asked to dirty the Earth with you, you filthy bastard. "
63 " He broke out in a wide, cocky grin. “Have I rendered you speechless?”I looked again and nodded dumbly. “Uh, huh. "
64 " His eyes met mine and a wicked grin pointed at me. What was he…? His tongue flicked over my sensitive flesh and I almost flew off the bed. It was nothing like what he had done before and…I seriously never wanted him to stop doing that. Ever. "
65 " I have been tied up, my apologies, Abigail Miller.” He chuckled deeply at his corny joke and I would have rolled my eyes, but considering he just took an epic fall, I let him have this one. "
66 " What was wrong with these angels tonight? Did they eat bad manna or something? "
67 " Never doubt me. Never doubt our love. Above all else, know it was an extraordinary gift to love you, to be your husband, even if for just a day.” I choked on my next words. “I forgot to tell you. Our wedding day. That was the best day of my existence.” My eyes overflowed with tears in disbelief I had to leave her. Another broken promise. "
68 " I shattered our hearts and left her to mourn the pieces. "
69 " You would deprive the world of this face? "
70 " I knew I was disoriented, but I was pretty sure intestines were supposed to be inside my body cavity. "
71 " Oh, Raphael. Maybe just kill it next time instead of skinning it?”He looked to his hands and flicked the thick liquid off. “My apologies, Abigail Wright. It has been quite some time since I dispatched a demon. I became carried away. I will try to remember your request for a cleaner kill.”A second wave of bile rose. I couldn’t stop looking at it. “Thanks, Raphael, me and my stomach would be grateful. "
72 " His golden eyes flashed wickedness and promise. “As you wish. "
73 " Don’t let this go to your head, but I missed your face. "
74 " This demon was going to bring me to that creature? Hell to the no. "
75 " For the second time today, I left her, both of us broken, only halves of one soul that yearned to fit together. "
76 " Ah yes.” He exaggerated understanding. “You intended for her to have the upper hand, to dangle you by the neck, crushing the life out of you. The inability to plead for help with your dying breath was quite masterful. "
77 " She called my name, the name she gave me. Pleading for me. I felt the anguish in her voice. I saw her heavy tears. The hurt with every beat of her heart matched mine. Dragged from her, I cried out, fighting against Heaven, and lost. I left her with tears blinding me that I couldn’t blink away. "
78 " I wasn’t one to brag, and I had thought of this rock on my hand as somewhat obscene in size, but I wanted to shove this diamond in her face to shut her up. I didn’t. I took the high road, left the restaurant, and stood outside. The high road sucked. "
79 " The two goofs started to battle, each holding their futuristic invisible swords, making boy sounds as they clashed against each other and jumped around the room. I sat on the stool, blinking at them, holding the eggs outside of my mouth for a good thirty seconds, twenty-nine seconds too long. "
