“Whatever he sees, he shares with Klaus,” I said frantically. “What Klaus can see, he can analyze—”
“—and Klaus can generate sophisticated intelligence for Sebastian beyond anything he’d be able to come up with on his own—”
“You’re not fighting one man,” I said, trying not to choke on my own blood. “Sebastian is not a single person—”
“Rosabelle,” Warner said sharply. “Who’s Klaus?”

“She draws one of his hands away from her face and presses a kiss to the center of his palm, and I’m sick to my stomach just being in the same room as all this tenderness.
I want this.”

"She was, from that day forward, no longer classified as a living being. She was formally listed as functionally dead: a drain on resources. She would receive no aid, no food, no education. Should I fail to manage her needs in a satisfactory manner, Clara would be sent to the asylum to die. Should I make another mistake, Clara would be sent to the asylum to die.”

“Later, I would learn the reason for Sebastian’s visit. Later, I would understand the depths of his obsession. His self-hatred. His need to kill his own need, to crush me so I couldn’t crush him. I’d exposed a useful weakness the day I drove a blade through his hand.
Clara’s rations were cut off.

"Upon my return I’d found my five-year-old sister right where I’d left her: nearly dead in bed, marinating in her own blood and filth and vomit.
I have no idea how she survived.”

“When I was finally returned to my cottage, I was no longer someone I recognized. They didn’t heal me right away; they wanted me to live in my humiliation. I couldn’t walk properly. I could hardly speak. I’d died a death so deep it took me three days to remember my name."

“Too young to understand the importance of keeping my mouth shut. Too naive to know there might be fates worse than death. Too inexperienced to understand that a soul could be stripped from the body while the heart still beat.”

“The first and only time he kissed me I told him I’d slit my own throat if he tried to force himself on me before our wedding night. His responding shock was so great it gave me hope.
I am, myself, my only leverage against Sebastian.”
