22 " It’s up to you to decide what being you actually means. No one else can do that for you. Not the man who gave you those wings, not the man who’s hunting you. Not your stepfather. Not even me. “But whatever you choose to be, cherub, make it count. "
23 " I love you, I want to say. More than worlds can hold or words can convey. You are everything that has ever mattered to me. Have faith and strength. You’ll be alright. "

27 " I love you, Callie, down to every last feather and scale. I love your darkness, I love your mind, I love your humor and your most coveted dreams. And I love how you love me—wholly, deeply, passionately. “You’re not normal; you’ll never be normal. I’m so sorry to tell you that. You are so blindingly extraordinary that it physically hurts me sometimes, and I’ll never stop pushing you to believe this. "

30 " He’s a trickster, a secret-keeper. He’s the dark side of the moon. He’s my beautiful, terrible mystery. My friend. My soulmate. From flame to ashes, dawn to dusk—until darkness dies. He’s mine, and I’m his, always. "
31 " He has no idea just how in love with him I am. It would be impossible for him to understand "
32 " I will be there through it all, and I will tease you and infuriate you, and lavish you with whatever it is your heart desires because the only thing mine desires is you. "
33 " My sirenic voice turns the sound into music, and it’s horrible that pain can sound lovely. "
34 " I will destroy the world before I lose you again, they seem to say. "

38 " He’s the Bargainer who saved my life over and over again, and the king who I ended up saving, a time or two. He’s a trickster, a secret-keeper. He’s the dark side of the moon. He’s my beautiful, terrible mystery. My friend. My soulmate. From flame to ashes, dawn to dusk—until darkness dies. He’s mine, and I’m his, always. "
39 " I will always be here for you—when you turn thirty and when you turn three hundred.” “Don’t forget three thousand,” I say. “If you defy the odds and live until then, then so will I.” He gives my hand a squeeze, his face getting serious. “I will be with you on your best day and I will be with you on your worst day. I will be there to hold our children "
40 " Why do men like this always revert to the insults? It’s embarrassingly predictable. "
