" THE DARKNESS IS HEAVY. It’s tangible, like a weighted blanket trapping me beneath my stale sheets. It’s a living darkness, thick with blood, wet with tears. Deep, so very deep. It’s a ravine, and I’m at the very bottom. It’s toxic, and I breathe great lungfuls of it, like a miner in a cave with no light, no air. "

― Kennedy Ryan , Grip Trilogy Box Set (Grip, #0.5-2)
