“True strength, Lady of Darkness, is being brave in the hard seasons. True strength is getting back up one more time. True strength is believing you were made for such a time as this and fighting against all odds. True strength is having hope even when the stars go out.”
“We all have shadows, Scarlett. We all have nightmares. We all have regrets. We all have darkness. You get to decide how much control that darkness gets over you.”
“It is okay to have hard days, Scarlett.” His tone was impossibly tender. “It is okay if some days the only thing you manage to do is survive. That is okay.”
“I promise I will always pull you from the river and help you find the stars.”
“Accepting forgiveness offered when it is not requested is often harder than asking for it.
“My home is wherever you are. If you demand I go home, I am already there. Let me in.”
“You promised you would not leave me alone in the darkness. You came for me, and I have come for you. I am yours, and you are mine. Let me in!”
“Because, Scarlett Monrhoe, you are drunk on wine.” She started to protest, but he continued over her. “And the first time I take you, I want you completely aware of every single way I worship you.”
“You are a Queen. You do not need permission to do anything and certainly not from a male. You make the choices that will affect you and your people, and you make them without regret. You choose, and you handle the consequences, whatever they may be. You do not look back, only forward. Now make your choice.”
“I am someone who has faced the darkness and found the beauty it had to offer. I am someone who can create stars in the void when the light has gone out. I am someone who cares for those the realms have forgotten. I am someone who can bring beauty from brutal ashes. I am a fucking Queen.”
“You do not need to know all the answers right now. You only need to get up and take the first step.”
“Careful, Prince,” she crooned sensuously, “we may be twin flames, but I will still throw down with you.”
“You have only failed when you give up, Talwyn. Fear is natural, but you do not yield to it,” Azrael answered.
“Ass up, my queen,”
“I’m going to need you to use more of your big boy words, Prince.” “Fuck no.”
