Death

Laura Thalassa

Top 10 Best Quotes

“That’s another type of loneliness—when your deepest truths are locked away and no one but you can hear them.”

“Yes, but life and death are lovers, kismet. They always choose each other in the end.”

“You all have been running towards me your entire life”

“Everyone deserves to die—even that abominable man I cut down only minutes ago.” He kneels across from me and reaches out, caressing the skin that he just so recently healed. “To live is to die,” he adds. “That was the agreement you made when you came into this world. You cannot have one without the other. All your life, all your suffering, all your loss—it was all for this.” He gestures to the dead around us, his wings spreading wide. “You all have been running towards me your entire life.”

“You’re my captive,” I tell him as he awkwardly pushes himself up to sitting position. His wings lift at his back as he does so. Death’s eyebrows lift. “I’m your … ?” He smirks then. “Captive.” He says the word with relish and perhaps a pinch of humor, and maybe I should stab him again. Just, you know, to remind him of the power dynamics here.”

“I was so intrigued at the thought of being your captive, Laz, I almost stayed put,” Death whispers against my ear. “But I have work to do.”

“Every single creature runs from me—except you.”

“When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come!” I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and the one who sat on it had the name Death, and Hades was following with him.”

“So lay back, kismet, and let me show you what it means to be mine.”

“Life and death are lovers, kismet,” he whispers, shifting my hips to align us. “We are lovers. It has always been this way. It will always be this way.”
