Friend: So why do you read all these books?
Thomas Cresswell: “I refuse to believe you’ve misinterpreted my affections. I am wholly in love with you. And it is permanent.”
Jamie Fraser: “Only you,“ he said, so softly I could barely hear him. "To worship ye with my body, give ye all the service of my hands. To give ye my name, and all my heart and soul with it. Only you. Because ye will not let me lie–and yet ye love me.”
Rhysand: "And if I had not met my mate…” His words failed him as silver lined his eyes. He said down the bond, “I would have waited five hundred more years for you. A thousand years. And if this was all the time we were allowed to have… The wait was worth it.”
Cassian: “I have no regrets in my life, but this. That we did not have time. That I did not have time with you, Nesta. I will find you in the next world - the next life. And we will have that time. I promise.”
Rowan Whitethorn: “I missed you, When I was in Wendlyn. I lied when I said I didn’t. From the moment you left, I missed you so much I went out of my mind. I was glad for the excuse to track Lorcan here, just to see you again. And tonight, when he had that knife at your throat …I kept thinking about how you might never know that I missed you with only an ocean between us. But if it was death separating us … I would find you. I don’t care how many rules it would break. Even if I had to get all three keys myself and open a gate, I would find you again. Always.“
Aaron Warner: ”I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head. I want to be that kind of friend,“ he says. "The one who will memorize the things you say as well as the shape of your lips when you say them. I want to know every curve, every freckle, every shiver of your body, Juliette-”
Gabriel Emerson: “When I told you that I was intending to worship you with my body, I meant it. With all my heart. I will never take from you. I will only give. In my bed and outside of it.”
Luka Tolsaia: “Because you belong to me, Kisa. You always have.” Luka’s face thawed and he pointed at my eye, then his left. “You’re a part of me, remember? God put a piece of you within me so when we were born, everyone would know we matched.”
River ‘Styx’ Nash: “I t-tried to stay away, do the right thing. B-because I ain’t no good for you. But f*uck, I want you so b-bad I feel like I- I c-can’t breathe. Can’t p-push you away n-no more. Need to have you c-close.”
Romeo Prince: “My body recognizes you as something that’s good for me. My mind recognizes you as someone who’s right for me, and my soul recognizes you as someone who is meant for me.”
Kaz Brekker: “I would have come for you. And if I couldn’t walk, I’d crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we’d fight our way out together-knives drawn, pistols blazing. Because that’s what we do. We never stop fighting.”
Daemon Black: “Kat. I broke every rule of my kind to heal you and keep you with me. I … burned down an entire city to keep you safe. I’ve killed for you. Did you think I’d forget what you mean to me? That anything in this world— in any world— would be stronger than my love for you?”
Me: …the plots are really good.
