“You were right there in front of me after all that time had passed, looking amazing, and you hated my guts. That was a special form of hell, love.”

I had a purpose now where I really didn’t have one before. He made me feel safe and above all, wanted beyond reason.

“You have been, my nymph, my greatest joy and chief tormentor in this life.”

“You lost a father and I lost a father figure. Someone loving and encouraging, who told me I could be anything I wanted, make a difference. Someone who had loved you unconditionally.

“If he dies on this table, you might as well kill me too because I can’t face the remainder of life without him.”

Losing Damien would be like losing the sun in the sky. I had forgotten how warm he was and how alive he made me feel. He was one of the few that could ever break me out of the hole I frequently stuck myself in.

He was a man now but he was still reaching back for me, like he had done as a kid

It was hard not to feel comfortable around him. Being around him was like the first warm rays of sun after winter.
