最近迷上 Nalini Singh 的Guild Hunter 系列.. (Elena被選為最酷炫kickass女主角真是實至名歸啊!!^o^ )
不過第3集小說裡有個詞一直是可意會卻難以言傳..或說臨時找不到中文裡相對應的詞?
就是書名(女主角的重生後的定位) : Archangel's Consort. 大天使的.."太座夫人"? XDD
p.s. 由於拉菲爾會在眾人前直呼伊蓮娜"Consort", 所以若照字典查到的"配偶"來套.... 好像不太貼口語.... :P
“What would you like to call me?” That made her pause. “Husband” was too human, “partner” factually wrong for a being as powerful as an archangel, “mate” . . . perhaps. But none of it was quite right.”.....
A consort was more than a lover, more than a wife. She was ... someone with whom an archangel could discuss the darkest of secrets, someone he could trust to speak only the truth, even if it wasn’t something he wanted to hear.
