Like the Demonhad adapted to the darkness and water.”I shivered. “Did he have a ring that he called ‘my precious’?” I joked to try and lighten the mood.

107 " Hope is a demon. It convinces you to believe in something better, persuades you the outcome will be favorable, and whispers eagerly in your ear that the miracle you so desperately need will happen.

Not of the monstrosities prowling the island, but of the demon inside herself. The one about to rip apart her heart and mind to attain a selfish freedom. And it might all be a lie, placed there by the Society. "
112 " I’m tired, my head hurts, and the last thing I want is to play referee between you two. Get over it.” She storms off, unable to stop the smug smile stretching her face at their stunned silence. The way people respond to her demands—all flabbergasted and slack-jawed—will never get old. "
