1 " Whether he called himself a Devil or not, he had quickly turned into her angel. Perhaps she was becoming his, too. "

― Kayla Edwards , City of Gods and Monsters (House of Devils, #1)

2 " I don’t think it’s possible to ever stop loving someone. In time, those feelings simply become buried beneath other ones. But once in a while you will see something that reminds you of them, something that causes those feelings to suddenly stir awake. And for one split second, it throws you back to that time—months ago, years ago, however long ago it might be—and you remember. And you feel. "

― Kayla Edwards , Dreams of Ice and Iron (Ice and Iron, #1)

3 " I’m a monster,” she’d said. “My magic does nothing but kill.”

“Your magic protects, Sable. It protects, and it destroys, but that doesn’t mean it has to destroy the peace. The sooner you learn to master your gift, the sooner you can use it to help those in need.” Still, she’d shaken her head.

“Fine,” he’d said. “But mark my words, one day you will show the world who and what you are. And when that day comes, you will not be afraid. Burn entire forests. Turn winter into summer. Melt the damned North if you must. And when you stand there, upon ground that hasn’t seen the sun in centuries, I want you to smile. Because only you can do that, Sable. Only you.”

That day hadn’t come yet, but maybe it would. One day. "

5 " I believe when you feel pain there is no better remedy than to talk it out, like birds flying through the doors of a cage finally opened. The past will not stay in the past until you set it free, and to do that, you first need to heal. "

― Kayla Edwards , Dreams of Ice and Iron (Ice and Iron, #1)

6 " If you could feel even half the pain I’ve endured, you wouldn’t believe that,” she said, her voice raw. “I’ve seen snow, red with a little girl’s blood. Royal chambers scorched to ash and a dead mother surrounded by men who’d harmed her in unspeakable ways. I’ve seen babies smothered by fathers because they cannot afford to feed them; children instructed to fight when they aren’t strong enough to lift a sword.” She took a step closer to him. “I’ve seen Death, Hunter Northridge. And Death is not merciful.”
“Yet you do not fear it.” It was a statement.
Sable shook her head. “No,” she confirmed. “I do not.”
“You only fear what it might do to the ones you love. "

7 " Everything I read of Hilandria suggested she was lovely, viewed as the most beautiful among the elemental gods, and among the High Ones, she was second only to Ismay herself. They say her skin smelled of cedar fires, and when she laughed, her eyes sparked. "
