“But hey, what's life without a little adversity?"
That had to have been the fakest attempt at optimism since my fourth grade teacher tried reasoning that we were better off without the dead kids in our class because it'd mean more turns on the playground swings for the rest of us.”

“I hold up my middle finger and keep my eyes forward. Not that I don't like Liam, but I'm still pissed at Xaden for assigning him.

Liam snorts and grins, flashing his dimple. 'And now he's glaring. Tell me, is it fun pissing off the most powerful rider in the quadrant?'

'You could try it yourself and find out,' I suggest, opening my notebook to the next empty page. I can't turn around. I won't. Wanting Xaden is fine. It has to be. Indulging the impulses it gives me? That's asinine.

'That's going to be a no from me.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“Panebože.“ Duši mi sevřela bezmoc a beznaděj. Nebyla jsem připravená na to, co mi ukázal – svět v jeho pravé podobě. Byl temný a děsivý a nechtělo se mi v něm žít.
Usmál se, jako by mi unikl nějaký vtip. „Můžeš mi říkat… Williame.”
― Lucie Adamová, Odstíny života

“So, Tairn hasn't channelled to you, either, right?' Liam asks, a look of uncertainty, vulnerability on his face.

I shake my head. 'I think he has commitment issues,' I whisper.

'I heard that.'

'Then stay out of my head.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

― Alexandra Bracken, In the Afterlight

“Deigh,' Liam whispers, falling limp against Tairn's back.

'I'll get you to him,' I promise, already fumbling with the strap's buckle. 'Deigh's gone,' I cry to Xaden, my voice a trembling mess. 'Liam is dying.'

'No,' I feel his terror, his sorrow, and his overpowering anger wrap around my mind, mixing with my own until it hurts to breathe.

Minutes. We have minutes.

'Just hold on,' I whisper to Liam, fighting not to cry as he looks up at me with those sky-blue eyes, wide with shock and pain. After everything Liam has given up for me, this is the least I can do for him. I can get him to Deigh the same way I know he would carry me to Tairn or Andarna.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“No, Liam,' Xaden chokes out as he crouches in front of us, the muscles in his face working to control his expression, but there's no hiding the despair that pushes at our mental connection.

'Deigh,' Liam pleads in a strangled whisper, turning his head toward Xaden.

'I know, brother,' Xaden's jaw flexes and our gazes lock above Liam as tears overflow my eyes. 'I know.' He leans forward and lifts Liam into his arms, then stands, carrying him. 'I'll take you.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“You snuck across my yard like a trained mercenary. Dressed in a black getup without so much as a pebble misplaced under your shoe or a crinkled leaf to make a sound. Had the lay of the land within seconds too I bet. Took down a man who outweighs you by fifty pounds as if you done it before. You hardly flinched when I set my gun on you. Now you’re sittin’ there all hunched around yourself like a rabbit in the grass. Definitely runnin’ I just hope it’s not from the law.”
― Jocelyn Adams, The Glass Man

“I'm going to kill him for making you come to this,' I mutter under my breath as Dain greets the king with perfect manners.

'Xaden didn't make me come.'

'What?' My gaze jumps to his.

'He'd never ask this of me. Never ask it of anyone. But I told him I would keep you safe, and that's what I'm doing, keeping you safe.' He flashes a crooked smile.

'You're a good friend, Liam Mairi. 'I rest my head on his arm.

'You saved my life, Violet. The least I can do is grin and bear it through a fucking party.'

'I'm not sure I can grin and bear it.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“You are kind of terrifying.'

'Thank you.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“Liam, you know I adore you, right?'

'Well, that's nice-'

'Go away.”

“If you even think about touching me, I swear I'll fucking kill you.' My power flares with my rage and lightning cracks across the sky, jumping from cloud to cloud.

'I think she means it,' Liam warns.

'I know she does,' Xaden's jaw ticks as out gazes collide and hold.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“Why did you do that?' I cry, my fingers searching for purchase on his leathers to pull him closer. I settle for the back of his collar and yank. 'Why would you risk it?' Gods, if anything happened to them...

His gaze collides with mine. 'That thing was going to take a chunk out of Tairn. You've saved my life and now it's my turn. No matter what you think of me for keeping secrets, we're friends, Violet.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“Guard her like you're me.'

'You mean like I'm six inches taller and built like a bull?' Ridoc gives him a thumbs-up. 'Sure. I'll do my best. In the meantime, you'd better run.'

Liam's gaze finds mine. 'Stay alive.'

'Working on it, and not just for my sake.' I give him a smile. 'Thanks for being a great shadow.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“Don't you look handsome.'

'I know.' He preens sarcastically, straightening his sash over a midnight-black doublet. 'I've heard healer cadets have a thing for riders.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“You can go. You should go. This is...' I shake my head.

'I go where you go.' His hand tightens over mine.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“How could I not come for you Moira? If I’d know who you were from the beginning I would have never let you get taken. I’m sorrier than you’ll ever know.”
― Amy Lunderman, Persona

“The girl, the pretty little thing with the red hair, is she really worth all of this son?”“Yes, yes she is.”
― Amy Lunderman, Persona

“It doesn’t matter why he wants you. The point is he isn’t getting you back. I’d rather die, than see you go back there.” “Why?” She asks, truly curious to the way he cares so deeply all of a sudden. “When I saw you at the facility that night, I’ve never seen anyone more hurt and mistreated than the way you were. And I come from a very violent upbringing.”
― Amy Lunderman, Persona

“You doing all right with whatever is going on there?' Liam asks, startling me.

'And if I tell you I'm not sure?' I give him the same answer, my lips curving.

'I'd think you got yourself in over your head.' The look on his face is anything but teasing now.

'For someone who said he owns Xaden everything, that's not a glowing recommendation.' I drop my pack to the ground and roll the tense muscles of my shoulders. 'Don't turn into Dain on me.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing
