“She remembered that time fondly with warm sunlight and riotous colors. Aqua ocean waves licking golden shores. Craggy cliff faces dusted with emerald. Orange brick buildings and fields of lavender.”

“I want my magic to coat your skin and permeate the air you breathe. I want to own you. I want you to think about me all day, every day, obsessively the way I think about you.”

“But it was Parrish’s eyes that were most jarringly attractive. At first glance, I’d assumed they were brown. They were, in fact, black. Not a dull, matte black but a deep ebony. Like a starless sky at midnight, there was a suggestion of some other color behind the darkness of his irises—indigo or violet, perhaps.”

“Now the animal fear drove her. The unseasoned heart in her chest pumped faster and faster still, adrenaline muzzling all conscious thought. Heaving breaths filled her lungs with mossy air and sweat chilled her skin. Each dig of her heels spattered mud over her legs as she ran. Overgrown hedges caged the girl’s small frame in evergreen and shadow. There was no nightmare more hellish than that endless flight, searching for the place she belonged and finding nothing.”

“I don’t know what else you want to hear. I killed him. I’m not sorry, and I’m glad he’s dead. That’s all I’ve got, okay?”

“Time stood still.
It was like wading through the deep waters of the Atlantic, fighting the Gulf Stream current. Her red, red blood gushed out with each beat of her heart. I crushed my hands to her abdomen in some effort to make myself feel better because there was no fixing what he did to her. I wanted to say something to comfort her, but I was gone as soon as her blood hit my skin.
All I knew after that was her confusion and fear and agony. I went away for a while. I went away forever.”

“His eyes glittered like the emerald Jameson bottles cluttering my apartment. I felt drunk at the sight of him, warm and numb. It occurred to me from the depths of my mind that I’d never reacted to anyone like this before.”
