“You don’t turn your back on family because you don’t know where the knife is going to land, and you don’t leave family behind because loose ends come back to haunt you.”
― Angelique Jones, Michael

“They say that the devils greatest trick was convincing man that he didn’t exist but their wrong. You are the devils greatest trick. Your very name is a trick. You are no Angel but a demon from hell sent to test us and while the men have failed I will not. Do you understand, I will not. I see you for what you are so go back to hell because I will not yield another member of my family to you.”
― Angelique Jones, The Matriarchs

“He can’t understand that what I’ve done was to ensure his safety. He thinks I’m a monster. A burden that he has to endure. A danger to the family. He wants nothing to do with me and avoids me. When he can’t avoid me he has a look in his eye that I know well, and the look says, ‘Why won’t she die? Why won’t she just die?’ I’m like that room upstairs; he just wants to close the door and forget any of it happened. He wants to close the door so eventually, like our mother, I’ll become the beautiful woman that died too young and nothing more. All my sins will be forgotten and hidden, locked away never to be spoken of again”
― Angelique Jones, Michael

“Hero’s and Villains are just a state of mind. The truth is that there is no black or white, no wrong or right, there is just the grey. The grey is that place in-between where reality sits and waits not for the decision that you should make but the decision that you must make.”

“Watching the mirror lined walls as she made her way to the exit there was no joy no satisfaction as she watched the broken man that still sat at the table staring aimlessly into the nothingness that had become his life. Tonight he would go home not to a loving family but a room full of corpses. Corpses that she would add to if he didn’t do everything that she said. The rules that she had once lived by were gone. The honor that she once clung to even at her darkest was no more. There was no gods will, no man’s law there was only Hammurabi's Code. There was only an eye for an eye.”
― Angelique Jones, The Matriarchs

“Whatever I want, you will do. Whatever I need, you will provide. You belong to me and only to me,” he growled, taking his free hand to my face. He pressed hard on my chin, forcing my slightly open mouth wide. Pushing my head down, he kept his hands firm as he shoved himself into my mouth. On and on it went, going deep into my throat. I wanted to pull back, but his firm grip kept me still, forcing me to take it until he finally relented and pulled back until its head touched my lips. Raising my eyes back to his, I watched as his lust grew darker.”

“I can’t help but smile when I read that someone was inspired by the voices in their head and how they just had to let them out. Yes I smile because once my husband read what the voices in my head were saying he started sleeping with one eye open and with one foot on the floor.”
― Angelique Jones

“Do you think that will change what you have done?”
Shaking her head, she said, “No, what we have done cannot be undone and we accept what you will do. In truth, I think I will welcome it. At least it will silence the screams.”

“In the morning light that shines upon these lands, I face the hard truth that though I may have won the first battle by surviving this night, it is a hollow victory and nothing compared to the war that comes.”
― Angelique Jones, Gazers
