“Then it sounds like you aren’t doing it right, spectre. Because if I fucked you, I assure you, you’d forget every other star-damned thing. From your name to mine, to every star in the sky and drop of water in the ocean. Nothing would exist

“Loren, I'm crazy about you. Since the moment I pulled away from you-like an idiot, might I add-I haven't been able to get you out my head. You're all I think about. You're all I want.
I need you to understand that what I did was only to keep you safe. I never wanted to be away from you. That's the last thing I could ever want. Until you came along, my life never made sense. You are the kindest thing that has ever happened to me. You are...you are my home. And I think it's safe to say that my life would be a whole lot darker without you in it. You light up my life, Loren Calla.”

“You make me happier than I've ever been, Loren. I can see myself having that life with you, can see us building our one day together. I can see myself there, clearer than ever, and I want it. I want all of it.”

“I leaned down, kissing her eyelids, her cheeks, her lips. Every wet spot I could find, every tear. I kept kissing her, because if that was all I could give her at that moment, I'd give it all.
I kissed her like she was the air I needed to breathe. Gently, reverently. As if I could somehow piece her back together with the touch of my lips”

“Red was never a color I'd given much thought to before. It was one of the colors of my house. It was anger, danger, blood.
Then I saw Pendragon-her hair, wild, untamed, burning like dragon fire. And suddenly red wasn't any of those things. It was the scent of jasmine and vanilla, autumn leaves swirling in the wind, the crackle of a fire on a chilly night, the first light of dawn rising golden and rosy. All the things that made life sweet. All the things that made it worth living.
So yeah, red was officially my favorite color now.”
