What Hunts Inside the Shadows (Of Flesh & Bone, #2)

by Harper L. Woods

Making me the villain of her story,

Probably bc you are but ok

You were made to be mine.”

And for no other purpose whatsoever aparently :')

“I never once lied, min asteren. I couldn’t have even if I’d wanted to. I never said I wasn’t your mate,” I said, dropping my forehead to hers and staring down at her. “You saw what you wanted to see. I simply didn’t correct your assumption. All you needed to do was ask.”

King of gaslighting

Fae Fucker,”

Goals tho

“The ferryman doesn’t work for free. Without the coins, the souls may not be permitted to cross the River Styx and enter the Void for decades.

Wtf is with the random Greek Mythology I thought this book was about fairies

there were still traces of the man I’d fallen in love with. There were still notes of the human within the God,

5 mins ago you were saying the complete opposite hey siri play the What Is The Truth Oprah meme

“Do you know how much it hurt? To know that every time you looked at me, you didn’t really see me?”

AND WHOSE FAULT IS THAT I WONDER

Fae do not cross some boundaries that humans have no qualms about crossing.

So u lie and gaslight and manipulate and MURDER ppl but u don’t force yourself on a woman wow ur such a saint and also THE BAR IS IN HELL

“Remind you that we are irrevocably bound, no matter what feeble lies you tell yourself?

We are 44 pages into this fucking book and STILL havent gotten past the "i hate you" "nah girl we r mates" back and forth dear god please lets get a move on

“You are too young to understand what we share. Just because you would take it for granted now does not mean that you will not come to appreciate me in time, as your fear and prejudice against my kind dissipates.

In other words, "dont worry, you'll get a mad case of Stockholm Syndrome soon and then everything will be just peachy!"

“I hate you,” I whispered, fresh tears burning my eyes and nose. His face softened further, pain lancing across his brow as he pursed his lips and hung his head forward. “I know,” he murmured.

Han and Leia remix wika wika wow

you are looking at me like you can’t quite decide if you should kiss me or kill me.”

The second option is the correct choice jsyk

“You’re the bane of my existence,”

Shoutout Anthony Bridgerton

My mouth crashed down on his again;

Fuck character development then i guess huh

I wanted nothing more than to forget who he was for a time, to allow myself to feel something that wasn’t the agonizing grief that threatened to consume me.

The solution to that is not to bang the problem its to go to therapy sis :') (but honestly same tho lol)

“A God sits back and lets those beneath him pleasure him. Not the other way around. Is that what you want? To serve me until I come?”

Shoutout Jesus nutting on that cross every time you say amen I guess

My life had been punctuated by many lows, but fucking my enemy was a new extreme.

I love some good old classic hate sex just as much as the next person ok but not like this...not like this 😭

Fae Fucker.

Hell yeah brother 🤘🏻

“I ruined this city for vengeance over what they’d done to me. For the way they betrayed me. Is this what you want the world to look like? Is this your hope for your home and the people you claim to love and want to protect?”

"im just a man who cant be held accountable for my own actions so I'll put the blame on a woman instead and just call it a reaction"

because you were born to love me, whether I deserve it or not.”

Spoiler alert you fucking dont

There was no way we could go to Faerie without risking whatever Brann had warned me about,

"go to Faerie" feels like an editing oversight idk

“It is time for the stars in the sky to rest for the day, Little One, and that means the star I hold in my arms must rise,”

If someone said this to me I'd vom what ever happened to “wakey wakey eggs and bakey” why did we have to reinvent the wheel and make it more cringe

“What pleasant dreams they must be to keep you from waking. Perhaps you should make them your reality.

The dreams were u leaving her alone (jk they weren’t because Estrella is a dumb bitch who seems to like insane and toxic behaviour but we’ve all been there ig)

power like that has a way of corrupting even the kindest mind.”

Shoutout Stanford Prison Experiment

“You have every reason to fear Mab,”

Idk bro i mean first of all her name is Mab 😬

“Fenrir!”

Naming a wolf Fenrir are you kidding me with this JKR knockoff lol this whole series feels like a mish mash of stolen content from every single popular book ever but then also make it suck

this man was a person in all ways. Except he wasn’t.

“and if my grandmother had wheels she would have been a bike”

“Dainsleif was forged by the dwarves and cursed to demand the payment of a life anytime it is wielded in battle. When drawn, it requires a life debt from you.”

What a stupid fucking rule who tf thought that was a good idea

“But dying is so inconvenient,”

Mood

“Only you would wish for death rather than allow yourself to be loved, my star,”

Lmao me feelings r gay

He gently snagged my chin, pulling my gaze up to his with smooth but efficient force.

We rly cant go 2 pages without him grabbing her chin to look at him jesus

“You think I am your captor? That I’m the equivalent of a jailor?”

You're literally putting her in chains as you speak but go off i guess

“No,” I protested, pinning my so-called mate with a glare. “If this is good enough for them, then it’s good enough for me. I will not roam free while they suffer, so if you want to unshackle me, then you’ll need to unshackle them all.”

You just finished throwing a tantrum over him putting the shackles on you and now youre throwing a tantrum about taking them off talk about mixed messages holy shit

Leaving this legendary place with the very God who’d caused such destruction wrapped around me seemed unfathomable, like the most intricately designed tragedy.

Why did it take us 93 PAGES to finally go somewhere and do something else im so exhausted and so bored

Has no one pulled your hair?”

What a fucking square lol

“He was sweet in the beginning. Not so concerned with the fact that other men might look at me wrong.”

He has always been posessive af what are u talking about my dude

“Son of a witch,”

Stop

“Estrella, calm yourself,”

Probably the worst thing to say to a woman when shes upset but go off i guess

“I love you,” I gasped,

Im embarrassed for you

The last thing I wanted was to be reliant on a male.

Mood

If he wanted to be territorial, he would need to do so in a way that didn’t dismiss me.

????? Or just ,,,,,, dont??????????? This man is so problematic sigh

I was not made for war. I was made for peace and a cuddly blanket in a comfortable chair in a library with a book in my hand.

this is the only moment i have ever related to this stupid character tbh
