“What she felt for Jena hadn’t been love. She knew that now, but it had been something that had felt bewilderingly, beautifully, deceptively like it. And though it had ended in horror and betrayal, she had learned something from Jena, too. Loving someone didn’t mean you could save them, and you didn’t save yourself simply by the act of loving.”

“No. It was time to stop talking about the “slavedays system” as if it were an abstract thing. Time to stop thinking of it as some historical hangover—a bad idea dreamed up centuries ago, which Britain was regrettably still stuck with. It was a group of people, right now, making a choice every single day to let all this continue.”
