“For better or worse. Because your only choice now is to kill me yourself or stay with me forever. I own your secret now, Peter. I own you.”
Kiersten Modglin, The Arrangement

“I don’t believe we’re defined by our worst moments, no matter how dark they are. We’re defined by what we do after our worst moments.”

Kiersten Modglin, The Arrangement
