    But you are crazy.”

    “I know.” She lifted a small box from the basket. “Do you know how I know?”

    Scarlet didn't answer.

    “Because the palace walls have been bleeding for years, and no one else sees it.” She shrugged, as if this were a perfectly normal thing to say. “No one believes me, but in some corridors, the blood has gotten so thick there's nowhere safe to step. When I have to pass through those places, I leave a trail of bloody footprints for the rest of the day, and then I worry that the queen's soldiers will follow the scent and eat me up while I'm sleeping. Some nights I don't sleep very well.” Her voice dropped to a haunted whisper, her eyes taking on a brittle luminescence. “But if the blood was real, the servants would clean it up. Don't you think?

    Do you think she is? Her voice trembled. Her heart throbbed as she waited for him to answer. You think they've killed her?
    Every moment wrapped around Scarlet's neck, strangling her, until the only possiblbe word from Wolf's mouth had to be yes. Yes, she was dead. Yes, she was gone. They'd murdered her. These monsters had murdered her.
    Scarlet pressed her palms into the crate, trying to push through the plastic. Say it.
    No, he murmured, shoulder sinking, No, I don't think they've killed her. Not yet.
    Scarlet shivered with relief. She covered her face with both hands, dizzy with the hurricane of emotions. Thank the stars, she whispered. Thank you.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #10

    Emperor, right. she retacked the curtain That's weird to say, after eighteen years of listening to celebrity gossip feeds go on and on about 'Earth's favorite prince'. She claimed one of the lumpy sofa cushions, curling her legs beneath her. I had a picture of him taped to my wall when I was fifteen. Grand-mere cut it off a cereal box.

    Wolf scowled.

    Of course, half the girls in the world probably had that same picture from that same cereal box.

    Wolf scrunched his shoulders against his neck, and Scarlet grinned, teasing. Oh, no. You're not going to have to fight him for pack dominance now are you? Come here.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #12

    He leaned forward to inspect her closer. Is that all hair?

    ... Sudden, overwhelming panic clawed up Cress's throat. With a squeak, she ducked out of view of the camera and scrambled beneath the desk. Her back struck the wall with a thud that rattled her teeth. She crouched there, skin burning hot and pulse thundering as she took in the room before her— the room that he was now seeing too, with the rumpled bedcovers and the mustached man on all the screens telling her to grab her imaginary partner and swing them around.

    Wha—where'd she go? Thorne's voice came to her through the screen.

    Honestly, Thorne. A girl. Linh Cinder? Do you ever think before you speak?

    What? What did I say?

    'Is that all hair?'

    Did you see it? It was like a cross between a magpie nest and ball of yarn after it's been mauled by a cheetah.

    A beat. Then, A cheetah?

    It was the first big cat that came to mind.

    I am an explorer,' she whispered, 'setting courageously off into the wild unknown.' It was not a daydream she'd ever had before, but she felt the familiar comfort of her imagination wrapping around her. She was an archeologist, a scientist, a treasure hunter. She was a master of land and sea. 'My life is an adventure.' she said, growing confident as she opened her eyes again. 'I will not be shackled to this satellite anymore.'

    Thorne tilted his head to one side. He waited for three heartbeats before sliding one hand down into hers. 'I have no idea what you're talking about,' he said. 'But we'll go with it.

    I guess it’s time.”
    While Cress’s thoughts continued to churn through the horrible things that could happen to her, she felt herself being suddenly spun around and dipped backward, a supportive arm scooping beneath her back. She yelped and caught herself on Thorne’s shoulder.
    Then he was kissing her.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #17

    I have lived in fear of her my entire life, she continued. If this is the only chance I'm given to stand against her, then I have to take it. I don't want to hide. I don't want to be afraid. And I don't want to be separated from you, ever again.

    I haven't used my glamour since I was twelve years old,” she whispered, gaze piercing as if it were very important to her that Scarlet understand this. “Not since I was old enough to control it. That's why the visions come to me. That's why I'm going mad.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #26

    Jacin said nothing else. Neither did she. After the first ring was completed, she leaned her head against his thigh, making herself more comfortable as she picked out a sunburst orange. Overhead, Jacin sighed, and she felt the faintest brush of fingertips against her hair. A hint, a suggestion of togetherness, before he became a statue once more.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #27

    Jacin’s fingers curled around his knife. It was torture. Jacin looked more afraid than when he’s stood on trial. More afraid than when his torso had been stripped raw from the lashings. This was the last time she would ever see him. This was her last moment. Her last breath. Suddenly, all of the politics and all of the games stopped mattering. Suddenly, she felt daring.
    “Jacin,” she said, with a shaky smile. “You must know. I cannot remember a time when I didn’t love you. I don’t think such a time ever existed.”
    His eyes filled with a thousand emotions. But before he could say whatever he would say, before he could kill her, Winter grabbed the front of his shirt with both hands and kissed him. He thawed much quicker than shed expected. Almost instantly, like he’d been waiting for this moment, he grabbed her hips and pulled her against him with a possessiveness that overwhelmed her. His lips were desperate and starved as he leaned into the kiss, pressing her against the rail. She gasped, and he deepened the kiss, threading one hand into the hair at the nape of her neck. Her head swam, muddles with heat and a lifetime of desire.
    Jacin’s other hand abandoned her hip. She heard the ring of steel as the knife was pulled from its scabbard. Winter shuddered and kissed him harder, filling it with every fantasy she’d ever had. Jacin’s hand slipped out of her hair. His arm encircled her. He held her against him like he couldn’t get close enough. Like he meant to absorb her body into his.
    Releasing his shirt, Winter found his neck, his jaw. She felt the tips of his hair on her thumbs. He made a noise and she couldn’t tell if it was desire or pain or regret or a mix of everything. His arm tensed against her back. His weight shifted as he raised the knife.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #28

    Kai neared his desk again, seeing that the fugitive's profile had been transferred to the screen. His frown deepened. Perhaps not dangerous, but young and inarguably good-looking. His prison photo showed him flippantly winking at the camera. Kai hated him immediately.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #29

    Knees suddenly weak, she reached for his forearms to stabilize herself. “You came for me.”

    He beamed, looking for all the world like a selfless, daring hero.

    “Don’t sound so surprised.” Dropping the cane, he pulled her into a crushing embrace that tore her away from Wolf and lifted her clean off the floor. “It turns out you are worth a lot of money on the black market.

  • Marissa Meyer Quote #30
