Life Quote by Rachel Higginson

“We didn’t ask you to leave and take the disease with you; we kept you close and intimate so we could drain you of life slowly, secretly. We puppeteered the entire obliteration of souls, fed off the pain architected by our own hands. We were the real infection.” quote by Rachel Higginson
