“To Velaris—the City of Starlight.”
“Pot. Kettle. Black.”
lol 😂
“You are my salvation, Feyre.”
That you are worth more than land or gold or jewels.
“To the people who look at the stars and wish, Rhys.”
“To the stars who listen—and the dreams that are answered.”
home—to Velaris.
“that I look at you and feel like I’m dying. Like I can’t breathe. I’m thinking that I want you so badly I can’t concentrate half the time I’m around you, and this room is too small for me to properly bed you. Especially with the wings.”
“I knew … I knew I was in love with you that moment I picked up the knife to kill Amarantha.
But I couldn’t … I couldn’t stop being around you, and loving you, and wanting you. I still can’t stay away.”
“You love me?” Rhys nodded. And I wondered if love was too weak a word for what he felt, what he’d done for me. For what I felt for him. I set the bowl down before him. “Then eat.”
“I think I fell in love with you,” Rhys murmured, stroking a finger down my arm, “the moment I realized you were cleaving those bones to make a trap for the Middengard Wyrm. Or maybe the moment you flipped me off for mocking you. It reminded me so much of Cassian. For the first time in decades, I wanted to laugh.”
“I fell in love with you, smartass, because you were one of us—because you weren’t afraid of me, and you decided to end your spectacular victory by throwing that piece of bone at Amarantha like a javelin. I felt Cassian’s spirit beside me in that moment, and could have sworn I heard him say, ‘If you don’t marry her, you stupid prick, I will.’ ”
“She is my mate. And my spy,” I said too quietly. “And she is the High Lady of the Night Court.”
“Not consort, not wife. Feyre is High Lady of the Night Court.” My equal in every way; she would wear my crown, sit on a throne beside mine. Never sidelined, never designated to breeding and parties and child-rearing. My queen.
And so Tamlin unwittingly led the High Lady of the Night Court into the heart of his territory.
