Kindle Notes & Highlights
For those who carry the weight of the world with a smile and never stop chasing dreams that others deem unrealistic, too big, or impractical. Every word is for you. Your dreams are alive, and so are dragons.
But is it not the most unsuspecting people who do the most extraordinary things?
People are often threatened by love when they realize both the absence and power of it. What is love if not the one thing in this world that defies logic? Love is the emotion that can make someone run toward danger, but those threatened by it sometimes become the danger.

“Cayden Veles, Commander of Vareveth. I, Elowen Atarah, queen of Aestilian and princess of Imirath, vow to fight beside you in the upcoming war as a true ally. My knives and dragon fire are yours,”

“Make them fear the flames of a queen.” She pauses for a moment. “We will meet again, Queen of Fire.”
“She is strong,” Finnian growls. “She can be strong and have anxiety. She’s not made of stone.”
“You don’t need to surprise me with knives, angel. I’ll bleed for you if you ask nicely.”
“Careful, angel. You give a man a taste of salvation, and he might keep coming back for more.” His arms are shaking from restraint. “Is that what I am to you? Your salvation?” I whisper, brushing my lips against his. “If you are to be my damnation, it’s an end I’ll happily meet.”
“You have never feared the flames, Queen of Fire, but others will fear yours.”
