    “إن المرأة تحب رجلها ليس لأنه أقوى الرجال، و لا أوسمهم، و لا أغناهم، بل لأنه هو.. بضعفه و قوته.. و الحب ليس إستعراض قوة لكنه طاقة عطاء دافئة مستمرة”

    “للأبد ؟
    ـ ماذا ؟
    ـ ستظل تحبني للأبد ؟
    ـ حتى تحترق النجوم وحتى ..
    تفنى العوالم ..

    حتى تتصادم الكواكب، وتذبل الشموس ..
    وحتى ينطفئ القمر، وتجف البِحار والأنهار ..

    حتى أشيخ فتتآكل ذكرياتي..
    حتى يعجز لساني عن لفظ اسمك..
    حتى ينبض قلبي للمرة الأخيرة ..

    فقط عند ذلك ربما أتوقف
    ربما ..”

    “Most of Jacks' books were crookedly stacked and next to volumes without any apparent reason, except for a small collection of the last book she'd have expected to find here: The Ballad of the Archer and the Fox.

    Something warmed inside of her at the sight of so many copies of her favourite storybook.

    Jacks owned seven volumes, ranging from old to very old. Positioned more precisely than anything else in his den, they sat side by set, on the tip-top of the shelf, the sort of place where a person stored books they didn't want anyone else touching.

    What was all this about?
    ...
    Evangeline reached for the first volume- she knew she was being distracted. But all she wanted was to look at the last page and see what sort of ending the story had. She wanted to know if it had a happy ending- if the Archer kissed his Fox girl or if he killed her. And maybe seeing all these books felt like a sign. She was starting to think that sometimes she imagined things were signs when they weren't. But that didn't mean they were not actual signs.

    She opened the first book, but the pages in the back were all ripped out. And unfortunately, she did not have better luck with any of the other volumes. Every copy fought her. One book kept falling from her hands every time she tried to open it. Another book only had blank pages at the end.”

    “Not to you maybe," she said. "But it matters the world having someone show up like I mattered.”

    I have been made to protect you. Only in death will I be kept from this oath.

    “I have been made to protect you. Even in death, I will find a way.” He clasped her hand tighter.

    “Bury me so I can go to Djel. Bury me so I can take root and follow the water north.”

    “I promise, Matthias. I’ll take you home.”

    “Nina,” he said, pressing her hand to his heart. “I am already home.”

    The light vanished from his eyes. His chest stilled beneath her hands. Nina screamed, a howl that tore from the black space where her heart had beat only moments before.”

    “What are you so afraid will happen? Afraid you might start to like me?”
    He said nothing.
    Despite her fatigue, she trotted ahead of him. “That’s it, isn’t it? You don’t want to like a Grisha. You’re scared that if you laugh at my jokes or answer my questions, you might start thinking I’m human. Would that be so terrible?”
    “I do like you.”
    “What was that?”
    “I do like you,” he said angrily.
    She’d beamed, feeling a well of pleasure erupt through her. “Now, really, is that so bad?”
    “Yes!” he roared.
    “Why?”
    “Because you’re horrible. You’re loud and lewd and . . . treacherous. Brum warned us that Grisha could be charming.”
    “Oh, I see. I’m the wicked Grisha seductress. I have beguiled you with my Grisha wiles!”
    She poked him in the chest.
    “Stop that.”
    “No. I’m beguiling you.”
    “Quit it.”
    She danced around him in the snow, poking his chest, his stomach, his side. “Goodness! You’re very solid. This is strenuous work.” He started to laugh. “It’s working! The beguiling has begun. The Fjerdan has fallen. You are powerless to resist me.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

    “In the morning, you can forget it. You can go back to pretending you don't like me, and I can pretend that I don't care. But for tonight, let me pretend you're mine.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “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. If you do this, Time will take something equally valuable from you.”
    The Fate gave the queen a look more vicious than any curse. “There is nothing of equal value to me.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “It hurts, Jacks.”
    “I know, love. I’m going to take you somewhere safe.”

    “Where were you?” she asked.
    “I was killing innocent maidens and kicking puppies.”
    “Jacks, that’s not funny.”

    “I wish our story could have had another ending.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    Stephanie Garber
    “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.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “He held her with the type of intensity that only happens when a person wants something that isn't quite theirs.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

  • #17
    Stephanie Garber
    “The girl was dead. If her lifeless body had not confirmed it, then it would have been made clear by the horrible scream of the Fate who held her in his arms. The story curse was familiar with pain, but this was agony, the sort of raw grief that was only seen once in a century. The Fate was every tear that anyone had ever shed for lost love. He was pain given form.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “I do not want you dead, and I’ll kill anyone who tries.”

    “Jacks no longer felt like her enemy, he felt like her home.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    Stephanie Garber
    “The Fate didn’t move. He didn’t let the girl go. He looked as if he never would. He continued holding her as if he could return her to life with the force of his will. His eyes were wet with blood. Red tears fell down his cheeks and onto hers. But the girl didn’t stir.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “It's all right. I'd probably kill another man if I found him with you like this.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    Stephanie Garber
    “Whatever it is, Jacks, you won't feel the same in a minute."
    He swalloved hard and clenched his jaw. "You have no idea what I'm feeling now."
    He looked at her lips, and the most tortured expression she'd ever seen crossed his face.
    When Jacks wanted something, it was with an intensity that could break worlds and build kingdoms. That was the energy pouring off him now, as if he wanted to destroy her and make her his queen all at once.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “Sorry to break your fairytale, Little Fox, but ballads don't end happily, and neither do the two of us.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

  • #25
    Leigh Bardugo
    “He buried his face in her hair. She felt his lips move against her ear when he said, “I never want to see you like this again.” “Do you mean the dress or the cell?” A laugh shook him. “Definitely the cell.” Then he cupped her face in his hands. “Jer molle pe oonet. Enel mörd je nej afva trohem verretn.” Nina swallowed hard. She remembered those words and what they truly meant. I have been made to protect you. Only in death will I be kept from this oath. It was the vow of the drüskelle to Fjerda. And now it was Matthias’ promise to her. She knew she should say something profound, something beautiful in response. Instead, she spoke the truth. “If we make it out of here alive, I’m going to kiss you unconscious.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

  • #26
    Stephanie Garber
    “How can I make you understand,' he growled, 'you and I together don't end well. We just end.'

    'How can you know that if you haven't even tried?'

    'Try?' Jacks laughed and the sound was awful.

    'This isn't something you try at, Evangeline.'

    ...

    'This is something that gets one chance to be right or wrong, and if you're wrong, there's no trying again. There is nothing.”
    Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

  • #27
    Stephanie Garber
    “She knew Jacks was far too dangerous a person to truly fall for. But she could no longer deny that it was happening. She couldn’t deny that she wanted him. Just enough to keep her from pulling away every time he touched her. Enough to keep his name near the tip of her tongue even when he wasn’t in the room. The physical attraction had always been there, but her pull toward him had been increasing ever since the night they’d jumped off that cliff together.
    Because she’d never actually stopped falling.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    “Do you still think of me as just a tool?”
    Jacks frowned. “I try not to think of you at all.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After

    Stephanie Garber
    “Even after jumping from a cliff and falling into the ocean, he still looked like a ruthless fairytale—a fallen prince who refused to break.”

    Stephanie Garber
    “and I'm not meant to be a saviour"
    "You're wrong. Tonight, you saved me"
    "no, I stopped you from dying. That's not the same thing.”
    Stephanie Garber, The Ballad of Never After
