41 " When it comes to bacon, the answer is always yes. "

42 " I stared up at him, hands and arms trembling. “I don’t know what you want from me.” “Everything,” he bit out between clenched teeth. “I want everything. "
43 " That's ... that's really sad.""Some say all great love stories are. "
44 " Oh, man,” Delano murmured under his breath as the rest of the room went dead silent. “Someone is getting stabbed again. "
45 " Apparently, she already stabbed him once,” Jasper informed the Guardian. “In the heart.” Nova looked at me. “And she cut me earlier tonight. Threw a knife right at my face another time,” Casteel ticked off his fingers. “Then this one time, in the woods, she—” “No one wants to hear about how many times I’ve made you bleed,” I snapped. “I do,” Jasper remarked. Emil raised his hand. “So do I. "
46 " The bed shifted as Casteel sat up. Gently, he pried my fingers from the dagger. “I’m just putting this down. It’s still within reach in case you want to stab me. "
47 " You seem to know a lot about that book.” “I love that fucking book,” he said, and my jaw ached from how hard I was clenching it. "
48 " This isn’t appropriate. I’m the Maiden. Or was. Whatever. I’m the definition of appropriate.”He stared at me. “Besides the fact that you are not the definition of appropriate, everyone in this keep knows that we’ve already shared a bed, Poppy.”“Well, that’s just…” My face burned. “That’s just great. "
49 " Why did you have to tell me that Hawke was your middle name?” The fire crackled, spitting sparks, and I closed my eyes. Seconds, maybe minutes later, Casteel said, “Because you needed to know that not everything was a lie. "
50 " But I was once told that the best relationships are the ones where passions run high. "
51 " ...but people who are in love enough to marry - the ones that people know are together before they even realize it - never consist of just one person, one personality, or one will. They fight. They argue. They disagree. They make up. They talk. They agree. The one thing they never are is perfect. "
52 " Beauty, my sweet child, is often broken and barbed, and always unexpected. "
53 " scholars have said that the ego is the downfall of many, many powerful people. "
54 " But we will have that conversation later,” he promised, thrusting the sword into my hand. “Make me feel incompetent and kill more than me, Princess. "
55 " I want a ring,” I announced. “I want an obscenely big one like I’ve seen some of the wives of wealthy merchants have. Their diamonds are so large they look like they should weigh down their hands.” He angled his body toward me. “I will find you a diamond so big it will enter the room before you do. "
56 " The next time I saw Casteel, I was going to shove the stupid knife so far into his chest, he would have to dig it out. "
57 " There are a few things more peaceful than being out in the snow. "
58 " Change can be good just as much as it can be bad. "
59 " Tomorrow always came soon enough, but I nodded. Because in the same breath, tomorrow wasn’t today’s problem. "
60 " Grinning, Kieran backed up. “When has she ever needed a reason to be violent?” “Good point.” Casteel glanced down at me, one side of his lips quirking. The damn dimple winked into existence. “I guess I should be grateful that she didn’t stab you.” “There’s always later,” I muttered. "
