Kindle Notes & Highlights
They’d killed his kindred, destroyed his friend... his home. They had broken the only thing that had ever mattered to him, would ever matter to him. He didn’t truly understand its meaning, but the love he held for Aleron was of its purest form in all the world,
Starting this one out on a high note. Not surprised, I figured something drastic had to be done if a book was to be centered on one of the twins.
Talk about mom of the year, she can’t catch a break.
Her injuries were insignificant compared to the soul-crushing agony he was experiencing at the very core of his being.
If she just keeps having kids eventually some will have to be sympathetic to her.
“It was either you or him – you have no idea how hard it was for me to make that choice.” “I was brought into this world with him. We always lived it by each other’s side, and we should have left it together!”

No one cares how I feel, having watched two of them die.” She covered her face with both hands, her loose corkscrew curls bouncing as she shook her head. “It’s not fair... and you all blame me for it when it’s not my fault.

Oh we love a himbo with nothing to lose. Excited to see how much intelligence he consumed.
“I’m not a fucking boy – I’m a man. One that’s treated you better than anyone else.” “You’re actually a little bitch. I was just trying to be nice.”
That was Ingram, always looking for a solution or compromise to any problem she brought up.
Emerie had thought the Witch Owl’s request was self-serving. But the longer she dwelled on it over the course of the past few days, the more it settled in that Lindiwe was... desperate. She knew what she was doing was wrong, but she was a mother who just wanted to protect her children – even if it meant hurting one in order to save them all.
