“Grace, on the other hand, means that God is pursuing you. That God forgives you. That God sanctifies you. When you are apathetic toward God, He is never apathetic toward you. When you don鈥檛 desire to pray and talk to God, He never grows tired of talking to you. When you forget to read your Bible and listen to God, He is always listening to you. Grace means that your spirituality is upheld by God鈥檚 stubborn enjoyment of you.

“You may call [Charis] angelic to be for ever trying to please everyone, and being sorry for those she can't please, but I don't! Addle-brained is what I call it!'
'Oh, no!' uttered Charis imploringly.
'Oh, yes!' he retorted. 'Told you so before! If you don't take care, Charis, you'll end by being sorry for yourself! All for the want of a little resolution! What if Mrs Dauntry and Frederica don't like it [a marriage between you and Endymion]? They'll come round! And you needn't look at me as ugly as bull-beef, Endymion, because I'll say what I choose to my own sister!”
― Frederica

“But if Frederica was aware of my sentiments, and begged Cousin Alverstoke to intervene鈥�!鈥� She shuddered, and clasped her hands tensely together. 鈥淵ou see, he could, Harry! He could arrange for Endymion to be sent abroad, for instance, and then I think I should die. Oh, my dear brother, there鈥檚 no one to help us but you, and I count on your support!”

“Where does it end!" She threw the words back at him. "With me dead, or you dead after trying to save me. I can't- you shouldn't have made me eat breakfast." She glared at him. "I...what?" "You made me eat breakfast!" She pointed at him to emphasize her list of grievances. "And became my sparring partner. You let me sleep on your shoulder in the carriage. You brought me hot chocolate and Hildie when I had a bad day, and you made me laugh at your terrible impersonation of Lady Everly, and you told me about your sister, and your favorite cat, and sneaking out to eavesdrop onMontevallion soldiers, and about the time you fell off a horse trying to impress a girl. And you shouldn't have done any of that.”

“You made me see you as a friend, and then you walk out of that shop today as regal as you please and you nearly get yourself killed. If you think I signed up for this job so that I could lose a friend, you're wrong." His hand fell to his lap and he pinned her with his gaze. There was an intensity in his eyes that made something in her ache. "I could have been too slow. Or I could have bee nat the wrong angle, or-" "Or you could have died. And if you hadn't made me eat breakfast, or laugh at your jokes, or listen to stories about your cat, I might have been able to survive that.”

“Charis laughed. A venom laced breath of cruelty that chased the courage off the woman's face. "Oh I'm not going to kill you. I'm going to let you go."
The woman barked a laugh. "Sure you are." "
"I'm going to unshackle you, and personally escort you out of the palace." Charis set her teeth.
The woman tried to draw back as Charis slowly dragged the tip of the dagger from the assassin's heart to the base of her neck. A thin, red welt rose in the weapon's wake. "Why would you do that?" Her voice was breathless. Charis cocked her head, keeping her eyes locked on the Montevallion scum who dared to shoot an arrow at her. "Because I am the nightmare you won't see coming. I am the last gasp of air in your lungs, the final beat of your treacherous heart. And once you've made an enemy of me, I won't stop coming for you until everything you love lies in pieces at your feet." "But, then why not just kill me now?"
"Because you aren't begging for death yet.”
