Kindle Notes & Highlights
I’d learned at too early an age that the sound of a girl’s scream drew nothing more than apathy.
The glassy, eldritch gleam, so cold and sharp, held my reflected form in a chilling glimpse of a world beyond. A place I feared to imagine. Death.
What a terrible burden to watch something die.
“You’re peculiar, is all, Maevyth. And nothing invokes fear quite like the peculiar.”
How tragic that a woman’s worth equated to the depth of a man’s pockets.
“Like poison in his drink. A little Snake’s Tooth over the course of a couple months ought to do it.”
I love Aleysia
“Can I at least ask your name? So that I’m not mentally calling you angry eyes?”
Lol I love her
“I find it interesting that any time a girl is unusual, or dare I say, unique, she’s deemed evil, or cursed.”
“Perhaps you should walk alongside me, unless you insist on staring at my ass the whole way.”
Caught staring lol
“Your heart must be the smallest organ you possess.” “And your mouth must be the largest.”
“Because I’m horrible at following orders. You should know that going forward. If you tell me to do something, chances are, I’m going to fail somehow.”
I love her
“Never apologize for incapacitating your enemy.”
Good advice
No, beautiful was too weak a word. She was intoxicating. Exquisitely divine. Once again, his thoughts wound back to the moment he’d found her cradling his brother’s head, giving him the gentle caresses he’d been denied most of his life.
“Do I still annoy you?” she asked. “Endlessly.”
“There’s something you should know about him, Maevyth.”
He hooked a finger beneath my chin and drew my attention back to him. “Tell me.”
“Who taught you to sing?” Smiling, I shrugged. “Myself, I suppose. Who taught you to frown?” I asked with an air of amusement.
“I’m just not familiar with your other talents, besides fighting and growling and snarling.”
“What wicked spells you weave, little witch.”
“I can’t … I’m laughing … too hard!” Her response had me gasping for breath between obnoxious bouts of laughter, and I fell back against the bed.
My mind puzzled over when I would’ve told him that, or how he might’ve known. In all our interactions, I couldn’t recall having mentioned the Corvugon egg.
“I have slept for a very long time. But since you arrived, I don’t want to sleep. I want to jump and dance and breathe again.”

“Some women are fire in your veins and hell between your teeth, Brother.
“Fucking hell, you are a vicious little rosebud. One minute, you’re soft and inviting, the next, you’re thorns and blood.”
Lunamiszka. My little moon witch.
“I won’t let go. I promise.”
“You consume me entirely, little moon witch.”
