Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Life left you empty so that you’d have room to fill it. We are only hollow if we allow ourselves to remain that way.”
“I had to learn how not to live for the trauma and loss. I’m living in spite of it. Don’t let him win.”
I’ve always believed love is like water, the way it flows between bodies and souls. You can’t stop the flow of it because one pathway is closed off. It just finds another exit.
“But if you say another word about Silas, if you think a negative thought about him, I’ll make sure you’re out on your ass with nothing but your sparkling personality when I take my piece of Elite.” I sneer down at her as I lean forward. “Poor has a smell, and you won’t like when I leave you covered in it.”
“You want me?” He tilts his head, shadows splaying across the contours of his handsome face. “You’ll crawl.”
“Nothing about us has ever been fake, Coraline.”
“It’s a hex code.” Silas slides the ring back on, reaching forward to brush a piece of hair behind my ear. “For the orangish-red color named Coraline. I want you. I’ve wanted you for a long time. All of it.”
“I’m scared to lose you.” “I know you are, Hex. But don’t let that stop you from being with me.” He smiles.
Beyond the flames of our destructive rage, there would forever lay a single thread of obsidian weaving our souls together. It will linger in us as a reminder.
It's easy to love someone who shares your DNA. A true test of unconditional love is who you choose to never give up on, regardless of relation. That's what we are to one another. Family.
