“What did he offer you?' I ask, like we're all in on the same joke. Yes, it's a gamble. Maybe Cardan didn't offer them anything at all. I try not to seem like I'm holding my breathe. I try not to show how small Cardan makes me feel. The Ghost gives me one of his rare smiles. 'Mostly gold, but also power. Position.' 'A lot of things he hasn't got,' said the Bomb. 'I thought we were friends,' Cardan says halfheartedly.” — Holly Black
What did he offer you?' I ask, like we're all in on the same joke. Yes, it's a gamble. Maybe Cardan didn't offer them anything at all.
I try not to seem like I'm holding my breathe. I try not to show how small Cardan makes me feel.
The Ghost gives me one of his rare smiles. 'Mostly gold, but also power. Position.'
'A lot of things he hasn't got,' said the Bomb.
'I thought we were friends,' Cardan says halfheartedly.
