“Yes, but we should take credit for the partnerships that lead to our successes,” Lunis instructed sagely. “Those in our lives directly reflect on us. You are the type of person who has a fairy godmother. Never discount the importance of that.”
“Well, do you want to be here?” he asked her. “Of course,” she stated, not even needing to think about it. “And this isn’t just about me. Do you want to be here?” “Yes, as long as you understand that progress might look a lot like disappointment.” She narrowed her eyes. “What does that mean?” “It means that things don’t always go the way we think they will, but that doesn’t mean they’re not progressing.”
“There was something about Liv Beaufont that was likable. Maybe because she fought for justice or protected the little guy, but Sophia thought there was more to it than that. Liv teased Rudolf. She outright made fun of Rory, and she got on Bermuda’s last nerve. But the truth about this warrior for the House of Fourteen was she allowed those she loved to be who they were, without changing them. There was something innately comforting about being around someone who loved you for who you were rather than what you could become. Many loved the potential in others, whereas Liv loved the essence of a person. She didn’t love the people in her life despite their flaws, but in many instances, because of them. They were all human, after all. Liv might make light of her friends, but Sophia knew no one loved them more fiercely, and Sophia knew being loved by Liv Beaufont was like feeling sunshine on your cheeks on a winter day, or the stars breaking through a cloudy night sky. Liv’s love was a cure to suffering most never knew they were enduring.”

Never let them make you feel bad for that.”
“She wanted to erase his pain but knew that it was important. What had happened to them in the Rocky Mountains had brought them closer. It had made them stronger, and one day, it would save their lives. That was how pain worked.”
