The assassins' bodies aren't even cold and they're now making out and finger fucking? ??

‘“If you shoot me,” he said, his voice dropping, “it will only make me want to fuck you.”’

CORNY 😭

She's jealous of a sexy informant that had her hands all over him in the club?? 😭

‘Shadera found herself literally caught between them, each holding one of her arms, neither willing to release her. The situation would have been fucking absurd if it weren’t so dangerous.

“I’m not either of your fucking property,” she snapped at both of them, yanking her arms free. “I just need to fucking think.”’

This is sending me into orbit omg lmao

“Women who have taken the Vow are no longer seen as individuals to the Heart. You will technically become my property under Heart law. ... You will have no rights, no authority. You won’t be permitted to stand beside me or any man in public, only behind. You’ll speak only when spoken to. Your body will belong to me legally, and any children . . .”

What in the y'all Qaeda

‘“The marriage must be consummated, in a ritual.”

He paused for her to say something, anything, but she stayed quiet.

“It’s not private. It’s—” He stopped, started again, the words like glass in his throat. “There’s a chamber. Viewing platforms above. The governing men of the Heart, they watch. They witness. They ensure the marriage is . . . properly sealed.’

“The woman sent to kill him, was the only woman who had ever made him feel safe.”

‘“I-I’m sorry.” She forced the words out.

“For what?” Greyson asked, genuinely confused.

[...]

“For assuming you were just like him.” She secured a bandage over the entrance wound. “For thinking that because you’re his son, the Executioner, this was a life you chose. That you wanted to kill innocents—that you enjoyed it.”'

CORNY 😭

‘“We suggested the marriage as a way to save your life,” Lira continued, words rushing out now. “The Daunts wanted you executed for removing your mask. The law is absolute—you know that. But Mother knew there was a loophole for when masks fall in accidents. We convinced him that a Vow to her would serve his purposes better.”’

None of this makes sense 🫠

‘“When I drafted the mask law, I included provisions for extreme circumstances. Accidents. Cases where a mask might fall in another’s presence.

“In such cases, the parties have a choice: execution, or to take the Vow with each other, since they’ve seen each other’s faces.”’

Oh so this book is CORNY corny lmao
