Kindle Notes & Highlights
They weren’t what I expected. But somehow, they ended up being exactly what I needed.
“Why the fuck is there a bruise on your cheek?”
“You’re going to find out just how far you can be pushed until you’re tipped over. And when that happens, when you find your edge, just promise me one thing.” My voice comes out like a croak, a single tear dashing down. “What?” “Don’t fall.” Time stands still as he leans in and places a kiss on my temple, lips turning to whisper into my ear. “Fly.”
I’d actually rather chew iron nails and shit them back out, but the life of a king isn’t easy.
“But then you came along. And never, not once, has anyone looked at me the way you do.”
“All my life, men have had me, but I have never had a man.”
“Love happens in all kinds of ways. Fast. Slow. In bits and pieces, or immediate. Filled with lust, one-sided longing, a snap realization never noticed before. Deeply. Thoroughly. Love is a whisper we didn’t hear or a sound that drums in our ears and drowns out everything else.”
There comes a point in your life when you have to choose between having regrets and the possibility of making mistakes.
“You were the closest thing I had to a father,”
“I’m going to go where you can never find me again. You’ll search the ends of Orea for me. You’ll hear rumors, whispers of where I am, but every single time, I’ll slip through your fingers.”
