Kindle Notes & Highlights
I am not foolish enough to harbor a schoolyard crush on one of the thirteen most powerful people in Olympus. Most days.
So does she have a crush on Athena?
The only time people talk about me, it’s with fear. Like I’m the boogeyman hiding under their beds, ready to kill them with a single attack.
Two of the legacy families are at each other’s throats over a marital matter.
Oooo which families? And why? This is before Neon Gods so it must be something we've never heard of before.
Odysseus,
We really haven't heard much about him in the main series.
I toss the keys lightly in my hand. “Zeus moves fast to get keys to her place.” “He didn’t provide them. Odysseus did.”
Killing your own mistress? That's fucking savage.
Funny, but the so-called peace only seems to apply to those with money and power.
This woman doesn’t deserve to die for sleeping with a married man.
“Yes, Daddy, I need a new dress. We talked about this. Yes, I already have a blue dress, but I wore it last time we went to The Dryad. You can’t honestly expect me to wear the same thing twice, can you?”
Omg spoiled much?
I think between the two of us that my night is going worse than yours. I just found out that the man I slept with less than twenty-four hours ago hired an assassin to kill me.”
She does win
“No one could look at you and find you anything less than perfect.”
“Please, M. If this is to be my last night, I don’t want to die with the memory of his hands on me. Kiss me.”
She's good
Something pricks my thigh.
Hahahhahaha she got you
Of course she played me. No one like her would ever be interested in someone like me, even in the best of circumstances,
Its really damn sad that she thinks that.
looking my fill.
This author really likes this phrase
That’s when I see the man.
Hades?
“I’m not the one in charge.” He shrugs.
Could he be pretending to keep up the ruse?
“Charon. I didn’t expect to see you tonight.”
Ahhhhh.
“I really, really would like to strip you down and spend the rest of the night enjoying each other. You can get back to arguing with me in the morning if you insist.”
You’re like a…something really cool and filled with all my favorite things and I want to play kid in the candy store with your body.”
What does that first part even mean?
Her breasts deserve worship, and I’m only too happy to kneel at the altar of her body.
Some might call them imperfections, but they just make her that much more real to me. A goddess, yes, but a woman made of flesh and blood. A woman I wish was mine.
It’s like one of the gods descended from wherever the fuck they reside and spread her legs for me. You’re lucky I haven’t passed out from the shock.”
thats so cute.
“Gods, Calypso. I could get addicted to you.”
She kisses me the same way she touches me; as if I’m something—someone—beyond price.
I’m terribly afraid that I might be falling in love with Medusa.
Oooooofta a little insta lovey are we?
“I grew up with nothing. I think those at the top forget that it’s not like that for everyone,
They definitely do.
Offering your heart to another person on a platter is a good way to get it thrown in the trash. Or a meat grinder.
I don’t know if I’d qualify last night as fun. It was more like a religious experience, except I’m not religious and I don’t even know if I believe in the gods.”
I’m warning you now, Calypso, I’m going to fall in love with you. Prepare yourself.”
“Promise me that you won’t bargain anything away for me. That if this person asks for something outrageous or unforgivable, that we’ll leave Olympus. Together.” “I promise,” I lie.
Calypso is lying to me.
Thank goodness she knows at least.
“You’ve come to claim sanctuary.”
There's this phrase again. There has to be a law about it.
They should have known better than to send an assassin into my territory.”
Yeah. Why did they?
