Rhage & Mary [The Black Dagger Brotherhood] #1: B/c she tamed his beast

Welcome to the Rhage & Mary Appreciation Thread








The book
Lover Eternal by J.R. Ward


Two hundred years: that's how long Rhage must bear the curse born of his reckless inconsideration. Sex and violence are all he once pursued; now they are the only things that keep the beast within at bay. He has little hope for finding peace during this existence, until Mary Luce enters his life. Irresistibly drawn to her light, he's pulled into a struggle with his own demons as well as the real enemies who threaten the vampire world and Mary. Ward wields a commanding voice perfect for the genre, and readers new to the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood should hold on tight for an intriguing, adrenaline-pumping ride featuring a race of warrior vampires who fill enemies with terror and women with desire. Like any good thrill ride, the pace changes with a tender story of survival and hope and leaves readers begging for more. Fans of L. A. Banks, Laurell K. Hamilton, and Sherrilyn Kenyon will add Ward to their must-read list - Nina Davis


The Moments




He couldn't see much, but he knew for sure he was not alone in the hall. Whoever it was stood beside him. And it was a stranger.
He spun around and yanked the figure out of the doorway, grabbing it by the throat. Too late he realized it was a female,
and the high pitched gasp shamed him. He quickly eased up on his grip, but he did not let go.
The slender neck under his palm was warm, soft. Her pulse was frantic, blood racing through the veins that came up from her heart...
"Who are you?" He demanded. "How did you get in here?"
"My name....My name is Mary. I'm here with a friend."
Rhage stopped breathing. His heart skipped a beat and then slowed.
"Say that again" he whispered.
"Ah, my name is Mary Luce..."
Rhage shivered, a balmy rush blooming out all over his skin.
The musical lilt of her voice, the rhythym of her speech,
the sound of her words, it all spread through his, calming him, comforting him. Chaining him sweetly...



"Thank you for not bailing on me"
"You're welcome. Now how about letting me leave?"
"As soon as you let me kiss you goodnight"
"Why?" she asked hoarsely. "Why would you want to do that?"
His hands fell onto her shoulders, blocking out the glow
from the restaurant, the lights in the parking lot, the stars far above.
"Just let me kiss you, Mary." His hands slid up her throat
and on to the sides of her face. "Only once, okay?"
"No, it's not okay" she whispered as he tilted her head back.
His lips descended and her mouth trembled. It had
been so long since she'd been kissed. And never by a man like him.
The contact was soft, gentle. Unexpected, given the size of him.

The front door flew open, and Mary shot out of the house,
jumping off the porch, not even bothering with
the steps to the ground. She ran over the frost-laden grass
in her bare feet and threw herself at him,
grabbing on to his neck with both arms. She held him
so tightly his spine cracked.
She was sobbing. Bawling. Crying so hard her whole body was shaking.
He didn't ask any questions, just wrapped himself around her.
I'm not okay," she said hoarsely between breaths.
"Rhage...I'm not okay."

Please add me to the list! I loved them too! I think they are my second favourite couple. My favourite was Zsadist/Bella.

I love Z/Bella too! For awhile they were my favorite, but I always find myself going back and reading LE and falling more in love with Rhage/Mary everytime. I've lost count of the times I've read their book

Thanks for the add! I haven't read all the books yet but I know I'll probably be going back to read Z and Bella's book because I absolutely loved it. I loved Rhage and Mary's too but not as much as Z/Bella's. I am going to reread every book after I'm finished with Lover Avenged and Lover Mine. I wanna refresh before the new book comes out.

It really wouldn't be a chore.

Welcome to the thread Holly!

Should we make threads for some of the other couples as well?

Awsome who should we do next?

I think my favorite scene of theirs was when she tamed his beast. It was like they finally accepted everything about each other.

^ yea I really liked that scene. another of my favs is their first meeting....jst the fact that Rhage was so attracted to her without even seeing what she looked like, just from listening to her voice...super hot/sweet!

That was pretty hot/sweet! I also really liked their first date when Mary couldn't believe that a guy that hot wanted to go out with her.
