2 " You again?" I glanced to my left and there was Ryker. I almost laughed at the irony. Pretty soon he’d think I was running into him on purpose. “What’s his name?” I asked, jerking my chin toward his dark bay charger sporting white socks. “Napoleon,” he said, which surprised me. His response almost sounded human. “And don’t get too close to him. He bites.”I rolled my eyes. That was more like him. “Oh, that’s okay. I bite back.” I could have sworn his lips twitched into what appeared to be a grin. "

3 " And then he knelt in the grass before me so we were eye level.I froze.His next move surprised me the most. Calmly, he said, “Fear is not weakness.

4 " One thing I’d learned over the years: always listen to your gut. And right now, my gut was chattering like a crazed squirrel. "
5 " Two hotheads traveling together through dangerous territory. Nothing disastrous about that combination. No, not at all. "

6 " I want to change things for good. But sometimes, for things to get better, they first have to get worse. "
7 " He stepped back. “Sometimes I think this world would be a better place without us humans in it. "
8 " I’d rather he live his life dangerously than not at all. My only worry is that he won’t stop until he’s sacrificed himself in the process. "
9 " So, it’s like that, huh?”“Yes, it’s like that.”“Fine. Game on.” Why did I say that out loud? Idiot! "
10 " Fear is not weakness. It reminds us that we are human—with limitations. We are not gods. But, instead of hiding our fear, what if we faced it? For in facing what makes us afraid, we become stronger. "
11 " Our secrets were many, our futures uncertain, but tonight—maybe just for tonight—we could lock it all up and be a girl and boy dancing the night away. "
12 " When I first saw you, you were on the highest balcony of Tatum House, precariously leaning over the edge with your arms spread wide. Like a little bird about to fly. Even now, you seem poised for flight at any given moment. "
13 " To the hopeless and oppressed,to the weary souls and heavy-hearted:You are worthy. "

14 " It’s a reminder that beauty can be found in the most unlikely of places. And there, she can thrive, even among those who would tear her apart. "
15 " But that was the crazy thing about hope. It was stupidly persistent. "
16 " This. This. Could all be gone in a blink of an eye. I hadn’t cherished the small moments, the moments that brought tiny glimmers of peace, joy, and happiness. Maybe I hadn’t been free, but I’d been alive. And I should have lived every second to the fullest.I wouldn’t make that mistake again. Starting now, I would live each moment as if it were my last. "
17 " Despite everything we’d been through together, I wanted to kill him right now. "
18 " I won’t give up. It’s just . . . harder than I thought.”“Anything worth fighting for always is, "
19 " Num acquired me tu es, paulo avis. Non possum resisters "
20 " But this time I was in control.His hooves tore up the road, clods of dirt spraying in his wake. The wind whipped my hair free of its bindings and dark red locks streamed behind me. I threw my head back and whooped to the sky. I embraced the danger, I craved the adrenaline, I needed the speed.And, for a moment of suspended time, I pretended that I was flying.Even more, I pretended that I was free. "
