    Kelley Armstrong
    “He leaned her back against the tub, setting her head on the edge, then washed her shoulders.
    "I know I left you once."
    She opened her mouth, wanting to say it didn't matter, it was forgotten. But it wasn't.
    "I know I hurt you."
    Again, she wanted to argue. But she couldn't.
    "I know I said I won't leave you again, but I also know that's not enough, and that the only way you're going to trust that I won't leave is if I don't".
    He slid the cloth over her arms.
    "If this ends, Hope, it won't be me that ends it. I think you know that.”
    ― Kelley Armstrong, Living with the Dead
