181 " My head snapped in her direction in shock. I had no idea what she was talking about or how the subject had come up, but I couldn’t believe she had actually spoken his name aloud. My lips parted. No one other than the Descenters would dare utter his actual name, and I doubted that any of them would even speak it in the castle. It was treasonous to call him a prince. He was the Dark One. "
― Jennifer L. Armentrout , From Blood and Ash (Blood and Ash, #1)
182 " There are many things I’m in need of,” he replied as his gaze slid back to me. "
183 " Your faith in my skills warms my heart,” he said, glancing at me. “Poppy?” My eyes widened behind the veil as I clamped my mouth shut. Tawny sighed. “It’s her nickname. Only her friends call her that. And her brother. "
184 " With my sword and with my life, I vow to keep you safe, Penellaphe," he spoke, voice deep and smooth, reminding me of rich, decadent chocolate. "From this moment until the last moment, I am yours. "
185 " It's weird, isn't it?""What is?"His gaze met mine again, and I felt a hitch in my chest. I couldn't look away. I felt...ensnared. "How it feels like I've known you longer. You feel that, too. "
186 " Maybe it would burn through my stupid heart. "
187 " La muerte es como una vieja amiga que viene de visita, a veces cuando menos se la espera y otras cuando la esperas. No es la primera ni la última vez que vendrá de visita, pero eso no hace que ninguna muerte sea menos dura o despiadada" - Hawke Flynn "
188 " from him. No pain. No sadness. Nothing. I drew back, my chest rising and falling. Something had to be wrong with my gift. Only the Ascended lacked emotions. "
189 " If I do anything you don’t like…” Hawke’s hand slid down my thigh, causing my breath to catch. Through the dress, his hand closed over the dagger. “I give you permission to stab me. "
190 " I don’t care what you are.” Hawke’s hand slid off my back. A moment later, I felt his palm flatten against my cheek with unerring accuracy. “I care about who you are. "
191 " When I looked up, a muscle flexed in Hawke’s jaw. "
192 " Because he wants you even though he knows better, even though he knows it will end in yet another tragedy. "
193 " But even so, sometimes, the the heartbreak that comes from loving someone is worth it, even if loving that person means eventually saying goodbye to them. "
194 " Well, he’s not going to be figuring anything out again.” Jericho gripped the bolt, tearing it free. "
195 " He was going to take me back—to that room where I was the Maiden, the Chosen. Back to where I wasn’t Poppy but a shadow of a person who wasn’t allowed to experience, need, live, or want. I would no longer be who he saw. "
196 " Con mi espada y con mi vida, juro mantenerte a salvo, Penallaphe. Desde este momento hasta el último, soy tuyo. "
197 " From blood and ash,” he yelled, even as the guard gripped the back of his head. “We will rise! From blood and ash, we will rise! "
198 " Sabes lo fácil que es ser tú misma cuando llevas una máscara. Cómo cualquier cosa que quieras se vuelve factible cuando puedes fingir que nadie sabe quién eres. "
199 " Who do you think will replace Rylan? "
200 " El miedo y el valor a menudo son la misma cosa. Te convierten en una guerrera o en una cobarde. La única diferencia es la persona que reside en el interior. "
