“Not wanting to lose someone has its roots in fear.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Wish

“Red never quite managed to wring emotion from her mother. She’d tried, when she was younger— giving gifts, picking flowers. As she got older, she’d pulled down curtains and wrecked dinners with drunkenness, trying for anger if she couldn’t have something warmer. Even that earned her nothing more than a sigh or an eye roll.

You had to be a whole person to be worth mourning. She’d never been that to her mother. Never been anything more than a relic.”
― Hannah F. Whitten, For the Wolf

“To anyone who grew thorns instead of flowers--You had your reasons.”
― Hannah F. Whitten, For the Throne

“Red spent the time mostly in her room, surrounded by her books, letting the familiar passages be an escape. She was good at escaping.”
― Hannah F. Whitten, For the Wolf
