1 " Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt. "
― Sophie Lark , Brutal Prince (Brutal Birthright #1)
2 " I can’t believe this. I’m marrying a child. And not a normal child—a demon hellspawn, like Chucky, or the Children of the Corn . . . "
3 " Trust is rarer than love.It's putting your fate, your happiness, your life in someone's hands. Hoping they keep it safe. "
4 " If you EVER talk to my wife like that again, I’ll empty that clip in your chest. "
5 " I love this woman. The day she set my house on fire was the luckiest day of my life. It truly is the luck of the Irish: perverse. Inexplicable. And utterly fantastic. “Do you forgive me for losing it in the first place?” she asks me, slipping her slim little hand into mine. “I shouldn’t tell you how much you could get away with, Aida,” I say, shaking my head. “But you already know that I’d forgive anything you do. "
6 " Cal found me, just like he promised. It wasn’t my father, or my brothers. It was my husband. This man I didn’t even want. And now I can’t imagine being without him. "
7 " Calm water doesn’t need more water—you need wind to move your sail. "
8 " You’re mine, Aida,” Callum growls in my ear. “I’ll kill anyone who tries to touch you. "
9 " Real power isn’t working the system. It’s running the system. Building it yourself "
10 " Trust is rarer than love. It’s putting your fate, your happiness, your life in someone’s hands. Hoping they keep it safe. "
11 " I’ve never been one for grand romantic gestures, but even under the most liberal interpretations, I don’t think waterboarding counts as foreplay. "
12 " Understand this,” Callum says quietly. “You’re coming to that dinner tonight, even if I have to throw you over my shoulder and carry you like a caveman. You can be wearing the dress when I do that, or I swear to god, Aida, I will haul you there naked and make you sit in your seat in front of everyone. Don’t fucking test me. "
13 " Having recently been grazed in the arm by my loving wife, I can definitely attest that having a knife slowly, torturously burrowed into your guts is about a hundred times worse. "
14 " There’s nothing healthier than olive oil and red wine. You eat like an Italian and you’ll live forever. It’s not good to be too skinny. "
15 " I can’t believe this. I’m marrying a child. And not a normal child—a demon hellspawn, like Chucky, or the Children of the Corn . . "
16 " That’s why there was no emotion on my side, just indifference. You need push and pull to feel love. Or hate. "
17 " Neither would I,” I promise her. “I’ll always find you, Aida. "
18 " I can’t believe it. I think I’m falling in love. "
19 " I content myself with smiling up at him and saying, “In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity. "
20 " I kiss her like I’ll never let her go. Because I won’t. Not ever. "
