She knew he couldn’t actually feel love, but it would be all right because Tella could feel enough for the both of them.
tella don't do this to yourself
She looked the way Love might have looked if Love looked in a mirror, infectiously happy and radiantly beautiful.
yes
When he had loved Paradise in the past, Paradise had also loved him. And Scarlett didn’t love him at all. Maybe that’s what she really needed.
oh...
Or maybe no one deserved love. Maybe love was always a gift, but it was so much harder to give it to the Fallen Star because he’d spent his entire existence battling against it. He saw it as a disease rather than a cure.
hmmm
Fear was poison to love. And love was poison to fear. She still couldn’t bring herself to love him. But she could bring herself to be vulnerable, and maybe that would get through to him.
hmmmmm
‘I know you’re afraid of love, I know it’s hurt you in the past and you see it as a weapon. You think love is a disease, but you’ve become the disease. Your fear of love is destroying you and everyone you touch. And it doesn’t make you powerful, it makes the world around you tragic.’
'you've become the disease' cleared
She liked the seductive lie that was Jacks. She liked his cruel games and his teasing smiles and the way he bit her whenever they kissed. The throne room might have looked like a page ripped from a horror story, but Jacks was her Prince of Hearts and he’d turn it all into a fairy-tale ending. She leaned into his touch and the world became hazy.
i hate you jacks
She hated him – she hated him for all those months he’d played with her heart. Even now he still held a piece of it. He’d always hold a piece of it, said a tiny voice inside of her. But Tella ignored the

The edge of Legend’s mouth slowly lifted. ‘You’re the one holding on to me, Tella.’ ‘No – I—’ She looked down to see her fingers gripping his frayed shirt.
oh!
Two warm hands wrapped gently around her shoulders as Legend held her in place. Her heart beat faster. She really needed to pull away. But she couldn’t move. Her
cuties
‘You told me you weren’t capable of love.’ ‘I didn’t think I was.’
YEAHHHHHH
Legend moved his hand from her hair to cup her cheek, holding her face as if he’d never touched anything so precious. ‘I can’t say that I understand love, or that I’m very good at it, because I’ve never loved anyone before. But I love everything about you, Donatella Dragna. Everything.’ His hand dropped lower to stroke her jaw. ‘I love the secrets you haven’t told me, and the lies you’ve tried to get away with.

‘This is my choice, and I choose you, Donatella. I don’t need immortality. You’re my forever.’
thats what i thought
‘You sewed these yourself?’ A sheepish grin. ‘I didn’t trust anyone else to touch them.’

He pulled back just enough to give her a wicked grin. ‘I’ve always been yours, Crimson.’
aww
It was one of the many reasons he loved her.
