True love is built on everything that exists outside of the word. It’s showing up when you’re needed, not matter the inconvenience.

I won’t let him go.
I’le follow him beyond the veil.
I’ll climb into stars and drag his soul back out of them if I have to.

It wasn't an injury anymore, it was a battle scar. And I was owning it like a warrior princess.

« But until that day, you’re mine, Blue. »

Iron is made stronger in the hottest part of the fire, Seth. You didn't break me, you forged me.

Tears never did anyone any favours, but sometimes they just needed to fall. (chap 6)
