Shadow Princess (Zodiac Academy, #4)

by Caroline Peckham

Hurricane Geraldine had torn through my bedroom, and I was left reeling in the wake of her departure.

I hated to think that some of the love and trust we had with each other might not even be real.

“It’s just nice for all of us to know our capabilities,” Tory replied with a shrug. “And our limitations,” she tossed at Darius.

Hahahahh stop taunting him tory

“I’m not really a princess kind of girl,”

Because I’m not ever going to put my life on hold for a man. Especially one who doesn’t think I’m good enough to make the cut long term.”

“Wanting to save someone isn’t the same as doing it.”

We didn’t do secrets and I wasn’t about to start keeping them over something this important. I would be honest about my trials with them, but I was also pretty sure I wasn’t going to stop.

But your sister is keeping secretS

So I’d make it my mission to get her attention tonight whatever way I could.

Simp lol

You will soon realise that all plans are futile. The only ones that matter are written in the stars.”

“I trust you instinctively, Blue. Since the first day we met, the stars have reeled you towards me and me towards you. Don’t you feel it?”

“I think the stars picked you for me, Blue. I think you’re my Elysian Mate.”

Why are you so damn obsessed with me?” “I’m not obsessed with you,”

Weh darius?? talaga ba??

“You don’t know anything about me,” I snarled. “Yeah, I do. And that’s what you can’t stand,” he replied darkly. “Because we’re the same you and me. Both fucked up, broken pieces on a game board that’s bigger than we can cope with. Both hoping to find some way of winning despite the odds being stacked against us all the damn time. Both addicted to things that push our boundaries and make us feel alive. Because at the end of the day, even feeling the worst of things is better than feeling nothing at all.”

“Because we don’t get to choose our obsessions. And you’re mine.”

Kakasabi mo lang na hindi?? Make up your mind! Juskooo im getting tired of your bullshit

“I don’t know what’s wrong with me, Max, I’ve never…I can’t stop thinking about her and wanting her and hating her all at once.”

Elysian mates?

“Fine,” he said eventually, though I didn’t miss the flicker of heartache the word cost him. “Let’s just get it over with. The Vegas have had enough chances to bow willingly.”

Sooooooo annoying

I turned and stormed from the room before she could respond, my heart breaking into a thousand pieces. And not because of the lies the Heirs had told about us. But because for the first time in my life, I truly felt alone.

Way to make it all about you tory
