Kindle Notes & Highlights
“They know that I’ve brought home a mysterious and beautiful fae woman who is clearly of Valtain origin based on her unmistakable appearance, and that I’ve declared her to be my official mistress. Under my protection and part of my house, now and for all time,”
Prince Kairos Draven, who I was now silently referring to as “morally gray asshole,”
Lolol
“But you,” he continued, ignoring me. “I will never apologize for saving you. I will never fucking regret coming for you. And I would do it again in a heartbeat. So don’t ask me to say sorry. Don’t expect me to. And don’t you ever, ever fucking say you didn’t deserve to be saved again, do you hear me? Listen to me clearly, you are worthy. You deserved saving. You deserved much more.” A dark look came over his face. “So much more than I’ve given you.”
“You have the most beautiful laugh, you know. You rarely use it, but when you do...” He took a breath and to my shock I felt him tremble. “It shakes the world. My entire world.”
“This. The touch of your waist, your hips, your skin beneath my hands? It sets me on fire, Morgan. I'm in awe of you, every part of you. Can't you tell? I'm spellbound. You've awakened something in me I thought was long dead. Something I never thought I'd ever come close to feeling again. And now I live for your presence. For the hope of your laugh, your smile. All of this. The court. The throne. Bringing you here. I know I can never convince you, but it is all for you. What I do is for you, always.”
“Your scent is intoxicating. Do you have any idea what your fragrance does to me? The longing I feel when I'm this close to you?”
But I see you, Morgan Pendragon. I see you truly for everything you are and everything you will be and I claim you as mine.”
“They just left out the whole part about how our brother had already murdered Kairos’s wife.”
How convenient
We would enter a place the plague could not touch us, hidden between worlds, concealed in the fabric of time itself. And we would not emerge until the world was safe for us once again.
“Practice is over. You need a healer.” “I need you in my bed,” Draven muttered from behind me. “Preferably naked and on top of me.”
