Poison

“Once upon a time, a little girl was raised by monsters.

But angels burned the doorways to their world, and she was all alone.”
― Laini Taylor, Daughter of Smoke & Bone

― Laini Taylor, Days of Blood & Starlight

“She gazed up at him. "Just don't forget our new motto, Leo. 'We can always murder them later, but we can't bring them back.'"

― Laini Taylor, Days of Blood & Starlight
