Kindle Notes & Highlights
A sudden thrill flared at my core, like a pulsing of restless energy that had me lift my chin, letting him see those eyes that had forgotten how to cry. “You have no kingdom, no crown. If you call this farce a court, then I can only assume that you’re its fool.”
Oooh get her, Jade!
Well, pluck my feathers and call me a chicken.

I looked into his pitch-black eyes, my throat strangling tight. “No matter how much you want to hate me, it’ll never measure up to the loathing my father clearly harbors for me. You think you rendered me worthless? Don’t flatter yourself, Malyr. I was born worthless.”

“What do my people say?” he shouted. “What shall I gift my female?” “Seashells! Glass shards!” a cacophony of voices yelled, shrieked, and cheered in a turmoil of suggestions. “Coins! Shiny pebbles! Nails!” I frowned. “Nails?” “Our anoas have the habit of growing quite obsessed with gathering smooth, shiny, or… otherwise beautiful objects. Males often gift them to a female in courtship.”
He gave her a charm bracelet of little bird trinkets lolololololollllll

Bitch, don't be dumb.
“And yet, at times, I can make him forget,” she murmured.
"I can fix him."
My gown.
Ohhhhhhhhh shit. This story got GOOD.
