Stone Destiny (Stone Passion #3)
“The poor girl was exhausted and had refused to sleep until pure finally exhaustion claimed her. Resting his forehead against the door, he closed his eyes and wondered how he could have been so stupid, so selfish, as to choose sixty years frozen in stone rather than a gargoyle's lifetime with the wondrous, generous Ferris. She would have made a fantastic gargoyle… until she realized how much she gave up to be with him.
He still believed he did the right thing because she was too young to tru...ly know what she wanted, what she needed. She deserved the opportunity to go out and experience life beyond the castle walls, something she would have missed out upon if he had given her his nights. She was also a child of the sun and if she became a gargoyle she would have to give up the daylight and become a creature of the night. Somehow, he couldn't picture Ferris thriving beneath the moon and he knew that in time she would resent him, resent being a gargoyle.
Heaving a sigh, he pressed his palm against the door, as if he could touch her through the wood.MoreLess
