Scarlet Angel Mindf*ck, #3

S.T. Abby ā€” 2016
To kill a monster, you have to be twice as monstrous. To love a monster, you have to share your soul... Logan Bennett makes me want to have a future not tainted by the constant hunger for revenge. Doesn't mean I can stop. Doesn't mean I want to stop. It just means I want more... one day. But how do you make a good man love the monster inside you without stripping his soul away as well? He is all the best parts of me right now, resurrecting bits of my heart I forgot could even exist. He makes me feel something other than cold. He also thinks I'm weak and fragile. Something I laugh about to myself, while secretly soaking in all his protectiveness and concern. If anyone touches him, harms him, or even threatens him, then they should probably run because his girlfriend is a little bit crazy. They just don't know it yet.

āœØTo defeat a monster, you have to be twice as monstrous. To love a monster, you have to share your soul.ā€”Lana Myers

āœØā€œThen you wanted to kill him. Heā€™s too good to die. Heā€™s everything opposite of us. His light still shines. I hope they have fun with you in hell. You sentenced yourself there the day you targeted the only thing that makes me feel as though thereā€™s still a soul inside me left to be saved. The only thing I love more than revenge.ā€

āœØJust like that, I have my answer. And I watch with her as the Boogeyman dies by his own knife. At the hands of a woman. The hands of a victim. In a way, itā€™s poetic justice.

āœØMy brother was a Shakespeare lover. He lived and breathed the words of a man his generation took for granted. The people of that time didnā€™t respect or appreciate the anguish and torment tied into each tragedy he produced under the guise of true romance.

āœØLogan tells him before scooping me up, cradling me to him as though Iā€™m fragile. I let him. When heā€™s around, I donā€™t feel like I have to be so invincible. When heā€™s with me, I feel like I can just be cared for without being weak. Like itā€™s okay to be vulnerable, because heā€™d never use it against me.

āœØā€œI love you too, Lana Myers,ā€ he says so softly. And in that moment, Iā€™m completely his. Thereā€™s no revenge; there are no deaths staining my hands. Iā€™m just a girl in love with a man whoā€™s destined to hate me when he learns the truth. And itā€™s devastatingly tragic; more so than any Shakespearian play ever was.

āœØExpectation is the root of all heartache.ā€”William Shakespeare

āœØIf you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?ā€”William Shakespeare

āœØRomantics always believe in revenge, because romantics love harder, suffer loss more painfully, and hold onto a grudge that has shattered their hearts. Their hearts are of the greatest importance, above all elseā€”body, soul, or mind.

āœØI smile to myself. ā€œMy father was an Einstein man. My mother loved Confucius. My brother, the hopeless romantic who was too easily emotional, lived and breathed Shakespeare.ā€ ā€œWhat does that have to do with sheep?ā€ Smiling, I face her. ā€œPersonally, I was always in love with the words of Voltaire.ā€ ā€œAll that sounds a little pretentious to me. But your family liked dead people who had something to say that people felt the need to recite. Proceed.ā€ Still smiling, I say, ā€œVoltaire said, ā€˜Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.ā€™

āœØā€œSheesh! Weā€™re in the middle of Fucking Madhouse Hollow, on the edge of the woods, and you give a girl a heart attack?! Not cool, Bennett. Not fucking cool,ā€ says the redheaded girl who knowingly drove the killer into town.

āœØItā€™s everything I need and more. Heā€™s everything I wish I could be. A hero. A hero loved by a monster.

āœØā€œIā€™d love you regardless. In case you havenā€™t noticed, I go a little crazy when itā€™s been too long since Iā€™ve seen you, and you give me a reason to want to live instead of just exist. You accepted every piece of me, and dealt with the scraps I could offer. And never complained.ā€

WHAT DID I JUST READ??? This book series transformed me into an insomniac blood-sucking vampire who crave blood to be spilled and justice to be made. At each turn of page i get more and more hooked in the chaotic journey our main character is going through. Lana Myers or should i say Victoria Evans *ahem ahem* has my blood turning to ice whenever she's in the middle of gruesome torture and omgggggg the best thing about all of this is that the writer KNOWS what she's doing. Down to every detail, everything is immaculate. The complicated information about FBI bureaucracy and espionage technology is wonderfully woven into the story it doesn't feel like too much either. I truly had a BLAST. This series deserve more praise and BRO A BETTER COVER!!!!! cause these covers are damned disappointing!

Another good book! This one goes more in depth about Lana's past and now everything is piecing together as they go back to where it all began. Very intriguing writing and such a page turner! Can't put this series down and hope to finish it before the new year comes :)

Romantics always believe in revenge, because romantics love harder, suffer loss more painfully, and hold onto a grudge that has shattered their hearts. This one was more fun to read since Lana got really violent and her monologue is less cringy.

Get me the popcorn, Iā€™m ready to watch the world burn.

I support everything Lana Myers does, I rest my case.

The flashbacks about Lanaā€™s past are pretty hard to read and they make me feel kinda sick, but that just makes me support her even more. Scarlet Slayer supremacy.

Marcusā€™s last words to me were that weā€™d come back as avenging angels, and weā€™d make them pay. Weā€™d do it together. But he didnā€™t come back.ā€

This quote breaks my heart every single timešŸ˜­

Sophia@sophia25

ā€œAinā€™t a life you can save that needs saving,ā€ she says bitterly. ā€œThis whole town needs to burn. Only reason Iā€™m still here is because I knew this day would eventually come. One day, someone would want to hear them babiesā€™ story, and finally give them justice.ā€

Iā€™ll paint the town red. Just like they painted the streets with our blood.

I'm so ready for her to do it. This town needs to be erased from the map.

My blood chills in my veins. ā€œNot now. Not today. Not like this,ā€ I say hoarsely. ā€œBut one day, I can promise youā€™ll know everything.ā€

And I hope against razor sharp odds that heā€™ll still love me when he does.

Chapter 11

ā€œI do love him,ā€ I tell her on a long sigh.

ā€œNice to know.ā€ Loganā€™s voice has us both screeching, and Hadley actually drops to the floor.

Logan grins at her as she bounces back up to her feet. If heā€™s grinning, then he missed all the important bits about me being a killing psycho, right?
