The Broken Kingdoms of Osvolta (The Kingdoms of Osvolta, #1)

by Rebecca Bretherton

“If I wanted to hurt you, I would have done it. My aim is unmatched, and I find a threat is useless if its intended recipient dies before I can deliver it.”

“It’s possible to abhor someone and still find them pleasant to look at. Sweet dreams, Princess.”

“It’s not cold-blooded if your life is in danger.” “Why do you care about my life?” “Someone has to,”

“Promise me that when tomorrow is over, you won’t hate me. Promise you’ll remember the person beneath the monster.”

“All you have to do is say the word, Solveig. I’d see you burn this world to the ground and reign over its ashes a dark queen.”
