    Sarah J. Maas
    “And then that voice from behind her said her name again.

    "Celaena."

    They had done this.

    Her bloody fingers slid down Dorian's face, to his neck. He just stared at her, suddenly still.

    "Celaena," a familiar voice said. A warning.

    They had did this. They had betrayed her. Betrayed Nehemia. They had taken her away. Her nail brushed Dorian's exposed throat.

    "Celaena," the voice said.

    Celaena slowly turned.

    Chaol stared at her, a hand on his sword. The sword she'd brought to the warehouse- the sword she'd left there. Archer had told her that Chaol had known they were going to do this.

    He had known.

    She shattered completely, and launched herself at him.”
    Sarah J. Maas, Crown of Midnight

    “Night falls. Or has fallen. Why is it that night falls, instead of rising, like the dawn? Yet if you look east, at sunset, you can see night rising, not falling; darkness lifting into the sky, up from the horizon, like a black sun behind cloud cover. Like smoke from an unseen fire, a line of fire just below the horizon, brushfire or a burning city. Maybe night falls because it’s heavy, a thick curtain pulled up over the eyes. Wool blanket.”
    Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

    “She craved a presence beside her, solid. Fingertips light at the nape of her neck and a voice meeting hers in the dark. Someone who would wait with an umbrella to walk her home in the rain, and smile like sunshine when he saw her coming. Who would dance with her on her balcony, keep his promises and know her secrets, and make a tiny world wherever he was, with just her and his arms and his whisper and her trust.”
