“Fine.” She pinned him with the coldest look she could manage. “You know now that I don’t eat hearts,” she said slowly. “But betray me again—earnestly or otherwise . . .” Isla bared her teeth at him. “And for you, I’ll make an exception.”

Yes girl firce!!

Wine couldn’t be that strong, could it? Had it been some sort of celebratory drink that was more potent than usual?

She was drugged

He suddenly looked alarmed. “Did you drink the haze?”

…or maybe shes just a lightweight

Her head was in Oro’s lap, her cheek against his leg. He was leaned back against the couch, exactly as she remembered him. Except he was asleep.

Ok love intrest

She felt the air change as Grim appeared, in the safety of the closest room to the gardens. Finally. “I need you to do something for me,” she said, her voice finally steady. “Anything.”

Now grim has to compete with old man oro

She wasn’t in her underwear, but only wearing scraps of fabric, she felt bare in front of him. Oro stood very still. She shrugged, trying her best to look carefree. “It’s just skin,” she said, her voice slightly breathless. “Just skin,” he repeated, his mouth barely moving.

Ok creep, hes like 500!!! I literally picture him as a fat old man

And the diamond ring she had given Azul fell to the floor.

I knew he had something to do with this! He was too quiet

She stood, pacing, her mind working too hurriedly, her words coming out too slowly. “What if it’s not a place, but a time?” “What?” She stared at him. “Dawn. Dusk . . . when darkness meets light.”

Oh i didn't think of that. Thats smart

“The full egg represented the moon,” she said, her voice hoarse from singing. “The yolk . . . is the sun.” How many times had she thought the full moon looked like an egg? That the sun looked yolky?

Stoppppp not the yolk!!! Why does it all come back to the yolk???

“Yes, Isla. You are not only Wildling . . . but also Nightshade.”

I honestly knew that

That was the moment I knew I loved you, he had said. When that arrow went through your heart, and it might as well have gone through mine.

HES LITERALY AN OLD MAN!!!!

“Wildling remedies,” she said to herself,

She really likes talking to herself

“Look at me, love,” he said.

Valek, is that you? NO its a creepy old man!!!!
