Please don't say that I'm the only one that thinks that Bree and Sel would make a cute couple? Nick is a little to nice and sweet. And Sel and Bree have more in common than she and Nick.

Sel straight up calls Bree a 'sweetheart/darling' in Welsh (Cariad). And Bree thinks 'I don't ask him what "cariad" means, because, in my heart, I'm scared of his answer. Scared to be torn in two once more e.t.c' and 'Sel studies me, sees my twisting heart. Releases me with a quiet sigh. Unspoken words lie between us, but he lets them go until they dissipate in the air to wait for another day.' Does that mean that there's going to be a scene where they have that talk in the sequel? That's what I think anyway. Found another quote: 'I feel Sel's attention on my cheeks- and wonder when the sparks in his eyes had become a comforting heat.' pg 487
'His low voice carries all the intimacy of a caress, and his eyes are melted gold. I turn away, overwhelmed at the meaning in both.' pg 487
'I can't take my eyes off Sel.' pg 310
'He holds my gaze for a long moment "Not every second"
It's suddenly very hard to breathe. I look away. "I have a question."
Sel dips me without warning, sending my stomach jumps into my throat. "I'm listening," he purrs, then pulls me back up with ease. Once I'm upright, I glare at him, but he just smirks.' pg 409
'"May I assist with this quest?" Something harsh and tight in his voice makes me look up. "Or will Nicholas feel left out again?"' pg 410
'I look back at him then, and our gazes lock. I put all of my faith into my eyes, so that he can receive it, hold it, and remember it when I'm gone. I communicate it with a squeeze of my right hand to his left, and the press of my palm against his shoulder. I'm not scared of you. His golden eyes widen, and I think he understands. At least, I hope so.
Sel clears his throat and turns us again.' pg 411
'"You look stunning this evening, Briana.'" pg 411
'The material of my dress is so thin that I can feel the searing heat of his hand against my waist. I imagine his fingerprints leaving red imprints on my skin, and the image makes the fine hairs on the nape of my neck stand up. "Thank you," I say hoarsely.
"It's the truth," he says with a shrug, "You do. Even though you're distraught."
"I'm not distraught."
He leans so close that his lips brush against my ear when he whispers, "Liar."' pg411
'It hits me a second too late that the conversation has taken a turn towards the intimate and that it's all my fault.' pg 411
'Nick's eyes are glued to us, to Sel's body draped around mine- and the anger on his face burns bright as a firework, even halfway across the room.
I pull away, but Sel's fingers hold fast at my hip, keeping me close. He murmurs low, just for my ears, "Oh, the scene he would make if he could." pg 412
'His gaze hits me all over- sharp pricks across my face, down my throat, and over my bare arms.
Face hot, I flounder for words.' pg 340
'He takes another step forward, not enough to push me over but close enough that I can smell the lingering spice from the Oath on his skin and feel the warmth rolling off him. A memory of his heated fingers that first night at the Lodge flashes through my mind, and I wonder, just briefly, if the rest of him runs just as hot.' pg 341
'I back away as Sel bears down on me, the tips of his hair smoking.' pg ?
'I can't help but follow the path of banded muscles from his abdomen to his chest. Intricate black and gray tattoos encircle his arms, cover his shoulders, and connect a Celtic knot on his breastbone. I should look away, but instead I notice the droplets of water that fall from his thick black hair and the tiny transparent beads still clinging to his lashes.' pg 345
'He wipes a hand down his face. To my dismay, it does extremely distracting things to his stomach muscles. Things I don't want to notice.
I look away, a spike of guilt making my throat tight.' pg 345
'Whatever it is, it stretches across his ribs and spans his back and sends heat from my chest to my toes. When he pulls a black T-shirt out, I breath a silent sigh of relief. Clothes are good, I think. In general. On people. On Sel, especially. But then he shrugs the tee on, and it fits him like a second skin- a marginal improvement at best.' pg 346
'Everywhere our skin touches leaves a trail of sparks.' pg 348
'"Like Tor?" I reply without thinking.
Sel turns to me, raises a brow. "Among others."
A confusing mixture of jealousy and curiosity and want swirls in my stomach.' pg 356
'I don't remember standing up. I don't remember walking to him. I just know that my arm is around his middle. His entire body turns to stone as soon as I touch him, and his smoke-and-whiskey scent swirls around us, heavy and burning, but I don't let go. "I'm sorry," I whisper into his spine. He doesn't answer, but his muscles release the tiniest fraction. I wonder how long it's been since someone touched him. We stay like that until his breathing slows.
When he finally speaks, his voice is pitched low. "You called me a monster once."
My arms drop and I pull away, voice colored with despair, "I was angry. I- I didn't mean that."
He turns, and his red-rimmed eyes sweep across my features. After a moment, a shadow crosses his face, and his mouth folds into a small, rueful smile, like he wants to admonish me and call me a liar.' pg 363
'I kneel beside him and place a hand on his forearm, ignoring the small sizzle between our skin. He freezes without looking at me, muscles hard beneath my fingers. "Sel."
His voice drops into an register meant to scare and intimidate. "Don't." But I hear the restrained desperation in his voice. A pause. Then, quietly: "Please."' pg 364
'I see words of comfort and repair hovering uselessly on his lips. He wants to help me but he doesn't know how.' pg 368
'Sel's eyes find mine. Our eyes meet- for half a heartbeat, so quick- but Nick catches it. In that split second, he notices something new between me and his Kingsmage. Something I can't explain right now, not even to myself.' pg 371
There are so many more but I've spent literal hours on this so I just can't do any more. Anyway, enjoy Brelwyn quotes!(less)

Is the main character (Bree Matthews) queer? Just curious, nothing wrong if so!

Leah Not that we know of at this point, but sexuality is fairly fluid in this book and many character are so it wouldn't surprise me if she was.â€¦m´Ç°ù±ðNot that we know of at this point, but sexuality is fairly fluid in this book and many character are so it wouldn't surprise me if she was.(less)

Is it only me but did anyone else notice that the healer William has resemblance to Will Solace from Percy Jackson series?? They both have boyfriends, and both are exceedingly good at medical practice. Is that a coincidence??
