They came to earth--Pestilence, War, Famine, Death--four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth, and they came to end us all. When Pestilence, the first of the horsemen, comes for Sara Burn's town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. Too bad no one told her Pestilence can't be killed. Alive and furious, the horseman takes Sara prisoner, determined to make her suffer for impeding his mission. Despite her pleas, nothing and no one gets in the way of his orders to destroy humankind. Only, the longer Pestilence spends beside Sara's bravery and compassion, the more he seems to understand her, and understand humanity. And the longer Sara travels with Pestilence and his plague, the more uncertain she grows about his true feelings toward her...and hers toward him. Sara might still be able to save the world, but she'll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.

Pestilence

ariah 

"Don't tell me I am mistaken in this too," he sas bitterly. "Love, lust, longing-you cannot refashion my feelings. I know my heart, Sara, even if it's alien to you" 

Why is it that fluffy ya romantisy books have me dying 

I can feel his sweet agony in the kiss. He leans his forehead against mine. "This is misery, Sara," he repeats. "But it is the sweetest misery I have ever felt. I don't want it to stop." I hate myself a little when I say, "It won't."

Cuando cabalgamos juntos y te sostengo, siento que todo va bien. Y cuando te ríes, creo que de verdad podría morir. Es una clase de placer agonizante, y es muy desconcertante. No comprendo cómo pueden el dolor y el afecto convivir uno al lado del otro. —Suspira y levanta la cabeza para mirar al techo—. Cuando me ignoras, ardo de inquietud; me siento como si el sol le hubiera dado la espalda al mundo. Y cuando me sonríes, cuando me miras como si pudieras ver mi alma, siento… siento como si estallara en llamas, como si tú hubieras sido convocada por Dios para arrasar mi mundo.

—No logro decidir si eres una toxina o un tónico —dice mientras alza una mano hasta mi mejilla—. Solo que plagas mis pensamientos y llenas mis venas.
