Breath of Darkness (Shattered Glories, #4) QUOTES

1 " Have you ever been in a situation where you had to choose between your loved ones, knowing that whatever you decided, you would have to lie to one of them?’
‘Yes. More than once.’ Elijah’s words sounded far too cold in the sudden silence. His finely chiselled face tensed up and his eyes grew cold. ‘And before you ask, I chose you every time. "

2 " But life is beautiful, Sariel!’ Gabriel said, trying to convince him. ‘Watch the sunrise sometime lying in the scented flowers of the field, or the shooting stars at the end of summer! Read a couple of really exciting books or lose yourself in the unselfconscious smiles of children. Have a swim in a clear mountain lake or take a run among trees clothed in autumn colours. If you can see the good in Earth, your own existence will become the richer for it!’
‘That all sounds very well and good, but you haven’t convinced me,’ the deep-voiced angel murmured and Ariel laughed.
‘My friend, Gabriel was very gently trying to suggest that you should fall in love and that will better dispose you to the world! "

3 " What am I to you?’
Sophiel smiled.
‘The sun. You are my sun, like Astrid said. My sun, that lights up my life. That looks after me with its fiery rays. I only have to turn towards it for it to set fire to my heart. "

4 " I lied to you,’ she said, hanging her head in shame, ‘more than once. In fact, I swore that my lies were truth. I can’t understand how it could have happened. It just came out of my mouth and by the time I realised what I'd done, it was too late.
‘It’s never too late to realise that you were mistaken, Sophiel. "

5 " In the end, Astrid couldn’t do anything about my . . . turning into light, but she made a prediction. She said the sun would help me and I would be cured thanks to its efforts.’
‘The sun?’
‘Yes. It was the symbol I drew from among the runes. Astrid says it represents . . .’
‘What?’ he said, looking at me curiously, and I could see that he really wanted to hear the answer.
I became embarrassed.
‘It’s not important . . .’ I muttered.
‘Please tell me!’ He turned fully towards me and I could feel myself blushing pink.
‘The . . . man in my life.’
I was done for. My heart was beating heavily but Elijah, for the first time since I had awoken, smiled. I was incredibly ashamed of myself, so I made to go back to the house, but the Dark Angel grabbed my wrist. "
