"One hundred and nine thousand, five hun-dred, and seventy-three days," he said quietly.
His eyes opened and fell to me; his hand cupped my cheek. "It was worth every second of misery in them to hear that again. I haven't stopped being completely, madly, irretrievably in love with you. Whether you rule the sky or the land I live for you, Astraea."

Can I find a man like Nyte pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee

I took a drink of wine, sitting on the ledge and trying to stop my demons from surfacing.
They wanted to tear down the veil to reach her.
Kill everyone in my path to take her.
But love couldn't be selfish.
I existed for nearly one hundred years before her, but I only knew what it was to live after I'd met her.

"If I asked you to stay? Stay in this realm with
me? "I'd only ask one thing back would you be willing to condemn your world for it? Because I would. I would lie with you and watch every star plummet to land, he said in a gravelly whisper. "This world would fall to darkness and I would spend everyday content never to see the daylight, because I have this. You. My brightest star."

"You can't be my shield from everything."

"No, not everything, but whatever I can. I will be your shield, your shadow, your weapon. I will be whatever you ask of me. There's no denying I'm the villain they whisper me to be, but since you, I'm at peace with what I am. Because now I do it all for you. To see you rise to everything you were created to be."
