“Never. It's not an option for me. Do you know what a rook does in chess?" She shook her head and I wrapped my arms around her. "He protects the queen. He can't take her down, he can't win against her. He only protects her. If you want to be queen of it all, I will cut down anyone in your way.

I can’t whisper sweet nothings into your mouth and I can’t fucking marry you because not only am I your brother, but I’m defective.”
