“My mother told me the moment a person falls in love is often quiet. It often comes in the night, or when you’re paying attention to something else, but it’s always in the rearview. You don’t meet love in the moment. It’s not an ambush. Someone chips away at the stone façade around it, breaching your fortifications, crippling your defenses, and the moment you fall in love is the moment you realize what you’ve built the wall around was love. You fall in love with your conqueror.”
― C.D. Reiss, Rough Edge

“She stood there, staring down at the floor, trembling in anger and pain. All the ghosts of her pasts screaming in her face right along with him. She was only needed when being used. Needed to meet somebody else’s needs. Needed to connect one dot to the next. A piece of debris to be stepped on so that others could get to some place happy. She was never wanted or needed because she wasn’t worth keeping and loving.”
― Lucian Bane, Reginald Bones 2

“Was this what it was to love someone? To have that wall of detachment crumble and be rebuilt into a bridge? I thought so. I swore it to myself because after those hours, we were so real together no one had to ask what was going on. Caden and I were an incurable condition. Dispassion had a place in our lives, but not with each other.”
