Poppy, I miss you so bad it hurts.” Jennifer L ArmentroutPoppyCasteelCasteel Da NeerFbaaThe War Of Two QueensTwotq Book:The War of Two Queens Source: The War of Two Queens
“Poppy," he breathed, kissing my cheek, the space below my ear, and then my shoulder. He pressed his mouth to the side of my neck. "My beautiful, brave Queen. I could stay here, holding you, forever." Oh, gods, I knew this was ending. Panic exploded. I wasn't ready. I wasn't. "Don't leave me. Don't leave us. I love you. Please. I love—" "Find me again." His head lifted, and his eyes... they were no longer bright, his features no longer clear. Things were hazy, and I couldn't—oh, gods, I couldn't feel him. "Find me. I'll be waiting here. Always.” Jennifer L ArmentroutPoppyCasteelCasteel Da NeerFbaaThe War Of Two QueensTqotq Book:The War of Two Queens Source: The War of Two Queens
