“Once she was called Notre-Dame. She belonged to all Paris, and Paris belonged to her. It has been almost nine hundred years since her first stone was laid.”

my love, my notre dame

“You were like a father to me—“

“Make no mistake, Paige, that if anyone is your father, I am. A father protects his progeny. A father sees potential and nurtures it. A father seeks justice for the sorrow of his child. The pointless amaurotic that sired you did none of those things. Who did?”

jaxon = silco

“Part of me feared, before that night. That I was a fool for wanting to know you. For seeing you in everything, everywhere I turned,’ he said. ‘I thought it was a sentence. A haunting. Until I realised it was a gift to be haunted by you, Paige.”

“I have no intention of letting Scion take you again.”

spending my 1st day of 2026 with Warden was the best decision i’ve made this year

“Do you desire me to touch you, Paige?”

YES, I DO

“That’s what humans do. We make. We remake. We build, and we rebuild. And yes, sometimes we paint with blood, and we tear down our own civilisations, and it might never stop. But if we’re ever to unlearn our worst instincts, we have to be free to learn better ones. Take away the chance for us to change, and I promise you, we never will.”

«The golden cord vibrated with our proximity, pulled taut as a string the long neck of a violin. He was the bow, and I was the music.”

AHHHHHHH SLOWBURNNNN

“You’re a distraction i can’t afford.”
“When I return, we will be allies. Nothing more. It will be…as if the Guildhall never was.”

HUH?? WHAT?! they’re pissing me off

“And i like the way he smiles. You know, one side of his mouth goes up before the other one <…> I miss him when he’s not around.”

IZZY, MY SWEET ANGEL

“No matter how good it had felt to be close to him again, it was too dangerous. But I miss talking to him. I missed being near him. It had seemed so much simpler before…”

“I am London. The waters of the Thames are in my veins; the stock brick of this citadel is mortared to my very bones.”

“London does not forget a traitor, nor forgive the weak. It will suck you down. Into the tunnels and the plague pits, the sewers and the lost rivers. Into its heart of shadows, where all the traitors’ bodies sink.” THE VILLAIN ARC IM SAT

“By the time you left, I could not imagine never seeing you again.” AHHH WARDEN

“Jaxon has told me there was no heaven. In that first moment our lips touched, I wondered if Jaxon was wrong.”

OH MY GOD, i was wait for it for almost 400+ pages

“Whether or not I die is irrelevant.”
“Not to me.”

THIS TENSION AH

“It’s inevitability, in some ways, that all I am would be yours.”

“I’m in love with you. I’ve been in love with you for years, maybe forever. Sometimes it’s all i can think about, and i can’t breathe because it’s so heavy on my chest that I…I might be holding it alone, the only thing about you i can’t be certain of. It’s agony, Grey, the not knowing.”

IM SOBBING

“She loved him in every way it was possible to live a person. And for the most part, she knew he loved her back, in his own way—but as she stared into the emptiness of the mountains, she wondered for the first time if that would be enough.”

THAT’S SO PAINFULLY BEAUTIFUL…the last time i had this feeling was when i was reading ‘the last hours’ 💔

“He looked like every dream she’s had of him, stretched over two years and too many heartbeats fearing she’d never see him again.” OH MY GOD!!!
