She looked down at her bulging veins and she remembered the most important thing that she had forgotten – she was alive.
OK then, picture daddy; whenever you’re afraid just close your eyes and picture me. I’ll be all that exists in your world and I promise to protect you.
I still need you. Killer, boyfriend, friend, whatever…I need you in my life…if for nothing else, to show me that it’s OK to be broken. It’s OK for things not to be OK.
Being the people we are, and feeling the way that we do, getting excited about going somewhere new can be terrifying. Of course it is, I get it! But if you don’t travel, you’ll regret it. Your soul will forever be empty.
Don’t you just love meeting new people in new places? It means I can be whoever I want to be. And guess what, sweet’eart? Today…I choose to be your worst nightmare.
A fortress doesn’t fall unless its towers are weakened.
What do you want? What do you want?…To see the world burn, and a new one be born from the ashes…
Letti wasn’t born to pass through the world. She had been born to sit atop of it.
Why do the birds return?” “What d’you mean?” Brandon looked lost all of a sudden. “I mean, they could go anywhere. They’re free…so why do they return to this place?” Brandon grinned. “Cause home’s home no matter how bleak.
Then I guess we have a problem…because this man, Luhan Kane, is under arrest by decree of the Elders’ Circle. My authority outweighs yours.
You don’t even know me, or what I am capable of, boy.
I’m scared that you’ll make me love you…and then you’ll leave me.
Relationships take work. It isn’t true love if things go smoothly.
I’m trying to figure out if you know something that I don’t, or if you’re really this stupid. You might be older and therefore a lot stronger than I am, Sphinx, but I am a mother and a lot more pissed off than you.
What do you want?”To see the world burn, and a new one be born from the ashes…
The flames of their passion illuminated the dimly lit room, filling it with a blazing fire which was either brilliantly beautiful or dangerously violent.
You think your children are better than mine? Ha! When yours were out playing with gold, mine were out fighting for survival. You taught your children to roll in money when I taught mine what it means to be strong.
Besides, men aren’t worth your time anyway, Letti. If we women spent as much time on ourselves as we do fretting over men, we’d be invincible! Work on yourself because at the end of the day, you’re the only person you can trust.
How dare you come into my home? And hurt my family? I ought to tear your throat out right here, right now!
Whoever is messing with my daughter, messing with my home, will be sorry they chose to play this game. I’ll be screaming checkmate before they even realise I moved my pawns…
Just always remember to listen to your heart’s song…it will keep you alive
Just because we’re adults doesn’t mean we should grow up! The world’s a playground for us, Melody, and I for one intend to play!
I know you’re scared, Letti, but sweetheart…you haven’t seen anything yet. You’ve not known true fear…
The minute grains of sand slipped silently down the curved hourglass, no matter how many times the people of Earth willed them not to. Time, fate and the actions of others were out of their control.
Truth means facing denial and saying I know who I am, I know who I need to be and I’m not afraid to become that person no matter what…Never be without fear; but Letti, never be without fight.
You can’t make a small world for yourself, because what are you going to do when that small world implodes?
No matter who you are, everyone has a shadow; a constant darkness that follows them wherever they go…unless where you go is into the darkness itself, of course, because then you have already been consumed.
There’s only so many times you can fight before the only person you fight for is yourself.
Keep your head up and your hopes high, friend; anything is possible.
Sun and snow is an Angel’s glow, but storm and rain? That’s a Demon’s bane.
Stop shying away from people. If you actually took a moment to listen to what they have to say, they might just say something that will change your life.
There’s nothing worse than bottling something up inside and letting it eat at you. It’s like being shot, and leaving the bullet inside our bodies. The wound would never heal. Instead, we need to let it out.
A seed, in order to grow, must first be planted under the best conditions. Be that space or time. I think, therefore, that you have yet to find your perfect conditions.
You see, people are everywhere. They are everything. No matter who we are, or what we do, people are involved in our lives. If those people are poisonous, our lives will be poisonous also.
Even when or if I become one of you, I vow to appreciate life; to appreciate my strength because unlike you, it seems, I’ve worked to earn mine
Believe in gold and thou shalt never settle for silver.
You are a blue rose, Letti. It’s almost impossible that you exist amongst the other roses but you do. You bring wonder to those who are lucky enough to find you.
