Quote by Mimi Matthews

“This time he couldn’t keep himself from staring. From thinking about what those lips would feel like. Taste like. Her mouth was appallingly sinful for a girl of eighteen, just out of the schoolroom.”

“It's not the same for you. You wanted a quiet life full of books and facts. You wanted to record the battles, not be in them. There is nothing wrong with you. You get to be angry that you killed a man today. You get to be angry that man tried to kill your friend. You get to feel however you want within these walls.' He's close enough now that I can feel his body heat through the thin cotton of my dressing gown. 'But not outside them.' It's not a question. 'We're riders,' he says, as if that's explanation enough. He takes hold of my hands and brings them to his chest. 'So do whatever you need to get it out. You want to yell? Yell at me. You want to hit something? Hit me. I can take it.' Hitting him is the last thing I want to do, and suddenly, I'm done fighting it. 'Come on,' he whispers. 'Show me what you've got.' I surge up on my toes and kiss him.”

“Ήξερε ότι, από τη στιγμή που θα φιλούσε αυτό το κορίτσι και θα πάντρευε τα ανείπωτα οράματά του με τη θνητή της ανάσα, το μυαλό του δεν θα φτερούγιζε ξανά ανέμελο αποδώ κι αποκεί, όπως το μυαλό του Θεού. Έτσι δίστασε για λίγο, περιμένοντας ν΄ ακούσει ακόμα μία φορά τον ήχο που έβγαλε το διαπασών χτυπώντας σ’ ένα αστέρι. Μετά τη φίλησε. Με το άγγιγμα των χειλιών του εκείνη άνθισε για χάρη του σαν λουλούδι και η ενσάρκωση είχε ολοκληρωθεί.”

“I wish . . . I wish that I could . . . feel you better,” she said, wishing she knew a better way to say it. “I just, I can’t quite get at what I’m trying to reach. It’s like your skin is in the way. At the Academy I would slice my sample open, but obviously that’s not an option right now,” she said with a laugh. “What else do you do when you can’t figure out what a plant does? Besides cut it open, I mean,” Tamani asked. “Smell it,” Laurel responded automatically. “I can taste the ones that aren’t poisonous.” “Taste?” She looked up at Tamani, at his half smile. “No,” she said, instantly knowing what he had in mind. “No, no, no, n—” Her words were cut off as two pollen-dusted hands cupped Laurel’s cheeks and Tamani pressed his mouth against hers, parting her lips with his own.”
