“I’m going to go back and stop your son from killing her.” The queen’s face fell. For a moment, she looked as old as the years she’d spent lying in a suspended state. “That is not a small mistake to fix.

“I wish our story could have had another ending.”
“Happy endings can be caught, but they are difficult to hold on to. They are dreams that want to escape the night. They are treasure with wings. They are wild, feral, reckless things that need to be constantly chased, or they will certainly run away.”
“Where were you?” she asked. “I was killing innocent maidens and kicking puppies.” “Jacks, that’s not funny.”
“He held her with the type of intensity that only happens when a person wants something that isn't quite theirs.”

He was pain given form.”
“I do not want you dead, and I’ll kill anyone who tries.”
“Dark was for stars and dreams and the magic that took place in between days.”
